This book presents an overview of didactics as a science of pedagogy, showing that it is not enough to apply methods and techniques in teaching and learning, but it is important and necessary to have a theoretical mastery of the elements related to education and the curriculum of higher education, which allow the teacher to be aware of the effectiveness of the process that leads, facilitates, mediates or collaborates. This book will be a good support for the university teacher, since it is written without much abstraction in the concepts, trying not to affect the academic quality of the professional narrative, and its reading allows the higher education teacher to improve his pedagogical practice, by providing the basis to understand that the experience is enriched when it is supported by the knowledge of the factors involved in the teaching-learning process.
