is a form of reasoning that teaches one about something but does not teach the intuition. It teaches a student, for example, 'about' language, but it does not teach him how to speak it.

as early as the sixteenth century, and possibly earlier, there were reformers who complained that the traditional deductive method produced students who knew about the language but could not speak it' (The Deduction/Induction Controversy, by Hector Hammerly The Modern Language Journal © 1975 p. 15)

is an argument from rule or law (i.e. Height leads to success) whereas induction is an argument from observation (i.e. Tall boys seem to have more success).

is an argument from the universal to the particular whereas induction is an argument from the particular to the universal.

deduction which goes from the universal to the particular, we have induction which goes from the particular to the universal' (Agamben 'what is a paradigm

is like induction a way of approaching an argument, such that any deductive argument can be reformulated to be inductive.

Any inductive argument can also be expressed deductively, and any deductive argument can also be expressed inductively' (NET)

is often characterized as one in which the premises entail, or demonstrate, the conclusion... while an inductive inference is one in which the premises, or evidence, only 'support.' But do not entail, the conclusion.
