Pedagogy is a discipline that studies the laws and phenomena of education. The research object of pedagogy includes educational principles and policies and educational practical experience, but pedagogy is not equal to educational principles and policies and educational practical experience.

Educational principles and policies

Educational principles and policies reflect people's subjective will. Correct educational principles and policies should reflect objective educational laws, but they are not equal to educational laws. The educational principles and policies of different countries and nationalities in different historical periods are one of the objects of pedagogy research.

Educational practical experience

Educational law is the summary of educational practice experience. Educational practical experience is in the stage of perceptual knowledge, and it can also be used as the research object of pedagogy or educational science branch. We should be good at summing up the practical experience of education to a theoretical level.
