English translation:didaxis

Explanation:
Hi maryrose,
*didaxis* means *teaching*

www.pabw.at/~jgrubner/ SCRIPT%202006%20How%20to%20learn%20teaching.doc
The noun “didaxis” means “teaching”, “instruction”. We use the word “didactic” as a synonym of “pedagogic” – that means if somebody works as a pedagogue

Thanks Linda. I used "teaching" as didaxis is not a commonly-known word.

Notes to answerer

Asker: Thanks for that, Linda. I'd never heard the word didaxis and can't find it in any dictionary, including the Shorter Oxford. Where did you find it? Actually, I think I'll go with "teaching" if that's the sense, so thanks again.
