Didaktický

Didaktický is a Czech adjective meaning related to teaching and education, or intended to instruct. It is used to describe materials, methods, and approaches that aim to facilitate learning. Common collocations include didaktické pomůcky (instructional aids), didaktické materiály (educational materials), didaktické postupy (didactic methods), and didaktická videa (instructional videos).

The word derives from the Greek didaktikos, via Latin didacticus, and is cognate with English didactic and related terms in many languages. In Czech, didaktika refers to the science and theory of teaching; didaktický forms the adjectival branch used to characterize practical or theoretical aspects of education.

In neutral use, didaktický denotes content and methods designed to teach. In some contexts it can carry a nuance of being overly prescriptive or instructional, sometimes suggesting a lack of engagement or creativity if the material is too didactic.

In educational and scholarly contexts, the term appears in a variety of phrases, such as didaktický plán (lesson plan), didaktická metoda (didactic method), didaktická analýza (didactic analysis), and didaktické hry (instructional games). It is commonly used to differentiate instructional design from other, non-didactic forms of content.

Related terms include didaktika (the theory and study of teaching), didaktické pomůcky (instructional aids), and didaktická psychologie (educational psychology). The concept is widely used across curricula, teacher training, and curriculum development to denote teaching-oriented content and practice.
