Morphology
pedagogic = pedagogy (transparent) = pedagog + ic
Clear adjective formation from the teaching-related base 'pedagogy' with the productive suffix '-ic', yielding 'relating to teaching'.
Etymology
Pedagogic comes from Greek parts paed- meaning 'child' and agogos meaning 'leader' or 'to lead'. So, like pedagogue, a word for 'teacher', or pediatric, a word for 'children', pedagogic means 'relating to teaching' and the ways teachers lead students to learn.
