Didactics in the EFL
Didactics may be defined in two ways, as the art of teaching or as the discipline about
teaching. In the first sense, the art, explains the process as the "practical cognitive quality,
the inner skill to produce specific tasks". In the second sense, didactics as the science

Didactics in the class Planning and Management
Objectives play a key role in the learning process because they lead the actions and
activities performed in the learning.
Teaching is defined as the way a topic is clearly explained.
Motivation is an affective factor that usually concerns teachers. Teachers wonder why, if
the give clear explanations, the class shows no interest. That is what this discipline wants to
explain.
Discipline in class is an element which exerts some influence in variables like behavior,
attention, effort, punctuality among others.
Interpersonal communication: This implies an active interaction between teachers and
students. Besides, human interaction is also vital to be aware about how different elements
interact with each other and how they affect the communicative process.
Evaluation is used as an instrument that provides information not only about students, but
also about the course organization itself.
