didactically
With teaching intent
In a manner intended to teach or instruct.
Didactically often carries a negative connotation—suggesting someone is being preachy, moralistic, or condescending in their instruction: The film didactically hammers its message about climate change.
More neutrally, it can simply mean in an educational manner: The exhibit didactically walks visitors through the history of printing.
