Primary education and pedagogy are both education majors. If you want to ask which is better, I believe most people will choose pedagogy. After all, the future career direction and choice of this major will be wider. But if we really want to discuss it seriously, it still depends on individuals. If you only specialize in primary education, then you choose primary education. If you think your education direction will change frequently in the future, then you choose pedagogy.

Primary education is mainly aimed at in-service primary school teachers with secondary normal school education or above and certain educational and teaching experience. Among them, literature and history are oriented to literature and history teachers; Science is for science teachers. Primary education is a large-scale educational foundation project, which has its own unique basic characteristics besides the characteristics of general education.

Pedagogy is a social science that studies educational phenomena, educational problems and their laws. It exists widely in human life. Through the study of educational phenomena and problems, the general laws of education are revealed. The main points are: the purpose of education is to develop students' various functions or abilities; Formal subjects (such as Greek, Latin, mathematics, logic, etc. ) or classical humanities courses have the most development value; Teaching principles and methods are based on the internal development order of students' psychological function.

So you can simply distinguish the difference between the two conceptually, and you must know how to make a choice.
