Des activités éducatives vs des activités pédagogiques

Hi,

I translated this as 'des activités pédagogiques ' but it was not given as an option. Is pédagogiques incorrect?

Bonjour Pamela, 

There is a difference in the usage of the two words, think of informal and formal learning from an activity.

In this text, 'activités éducatives' is a more general term encompassing a wide range of activities that contribute to a person's education and development.

'Activités pédagogiques' are more specific to formal teaching methods and strategies used in educational institutions to achieve particular learning goals.

Bonne Continuation !
