There is debate about whether military pedagogy differs from other forms of pedagogy, such as andragogy or heutagogy. The concept of military pedagogy can be comprehended from multiple viewpoints. Military pedagogy is regarded by certain researchers as the act of instructing and acquiring knowledge within a military educational setting. However, another faction of scholars argue that military pedagogy is employed specifically for the goal of instructing in defense and military strategies. This paper aims to understand the specific characteristics of military pedagogy in Malaysia, as witnessed and documented by the author, who has been working at the Defense University since its establishment. The analysis is derived from the observations conducted on the pedagogical methods employed at the Defense University. Initial results indicate that the qualities of military pedagogy encompass the six attributes of intellectual leaders of character at the Defense University. Military pedagogy then may form the foundation of the university's teaching and learning philosophy. [For the complete proceedings, see ED672804.]
