- An educational method refers to any established procedure for one's education. These procedures are usually based on observation and direct experience. They can fit several categories such as learning content delivery, practical instruction, cognitive research, experiential learning. Any learning tends to use some combination of those.
- Imagine that you are learning to speak another language. Most likely, you get some syntax concepts and vocabulary words through learning content delivery. Practical instruction would be needed to work on your pronunciation. However, you will never speak another language fluently unless you start researching it, finding patterns, and try in various conditions and under various circumstances.
