Education / Pedagogy
It's a heading of a clause in a Statute description.
It refers to a grouping of particular educational departments, for the purpose of creating specific degree courses.
I can't seem to find a UK or US equivalent.
And Didactic or Educational Area just don't seem to fit.
Thanks for any suggestions.

teaching field
I think area didattica here means a teaching field, for example, like TESOL, (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages), and this is one of the particular education departments in US colleges and universities (I'm not sure about schools in UK). The course teaches students who are already teaching at schools about how one acquires a first foreign language, including brain mechanism, bilingualism, etc.
