By and large, a picture emerges of a strong distinction between the student, who perforce does not already have the knowledge the poet wishes to impart, and an implied reader, to whom the poet appeals as an ally against the recalcitrant student, whether or not the reader is represented as already in the know.
These are the possibility of learning, the tension between didactic and aesthetic aims, the effects of historicism in confronting well-known addressees such as Caesar, and the internal split that leads again and again to a proliferation of categories.
The absence of Perses also matters, and she argues that Perses disappears precisely when the lesson becomes too hard: he may finally accept a life of justice and labor, but the further lesson of the imponderability of human life is presented not to him, but to the "ideal listener, O(PANA/RISTOS" (33).

It seems to be the convention that people use the word "didactic" to describe lessons or presentations that are not constructivistic in nature.
I believe the word "didactic" is used in the sense that the presentation of knowledge (by the presenter) would be the focus rather than the understanding of that knowledge (by the audience).
constructivism, a student-centered lesson is one implication of constructivism.

Didactics react to the central problem each knowledge society (Wissensgesellschaft) has to cope with: Only a content-wise defined canon as a minimum (Minimum) of shared learning experiences guarantees an intersection within the plurality of social experiences in the recent generation, and therefore secures the public discussion ability among members of society.
The basic didactical form is the opening and discovery of a fastidious topic by the students themselves: a key problem; a question of mankind (Menschheitsthema); a great moment of mankind (Sternstunde der Menschheit (4)) in the stream of cultural tradition (Berg/Schulze 1995, 39ff.).
From the perspective of general didactics and as a critical friend Bonati (2003, 69) asks whether students could be brought into the process of the generating of knowledge earlier, by putting in a word during the choosing of topics and the asking of questions, for example.

Courseware is nowadays widely available: it consists of didactic material on-line, organized as complete lesson courses, that each student can individually consult according to his own needs, without communicating with a teacher or with any other student consulting the same material.
In this way the teacher is able to prepare his lesson as a sequence of steps where each step has an explanatory HTML page, that can be accompanied by a drawing (to show the behaviour of an algorithm, for example) and by a text that represents a program.
A lesson author that allows the teacher to create (on line) a new lesson from existing HTML files, images and programs or from files can be, of course, created or modified by using some of the cooperative tools provided by the system.

But Richardson's didactic blade holds a double edge, for while he "teaches" against youthful caprice and parental oppression, his stated goal, he simultaneously turns the power of decorum and propriety in upon itself to show how the very codes by which the landed gentry perpetuate place and position will also bring them down.
The static acceptance of a didactic "lesson" here must necessarily fall to a transactive interpretation if the "history" that is Clarissa is to survive as art in eras beyond Richardson's own time.
The didactic purpose in Clarissa, claims Richardson, is to "caution parents in the undue exertion" of parental right regarding marriage and to warn children against "preferring a man of pleasure against a man of probity" (36).

 Enculturation: Julie Anderson on Spectacular Spectators
However, in order to learn the lessons of these plays, they must be watched (either as performances or as images in the mind’s eye).
In both of these plays, the audience’s ability to understand the didactic lesson rests on its watching the female protagonist and becoming the object of her gaze.
Ultimately, these plays create pleasure (sexual, didactic, or other) by creating a moment for the audience to be both spectator and spectacle: to allow the audience to participate in the gaze of the play.
