Educational purposes?

Hi!
I want to know what is the difference between the meanings of these three words following or can these three words be swapped for each other in a sentence? For instance-:These risky experiments are being carried out only for educational purposes.
Now in the above sentence,can I use "heuristic purposes" or "pedagogical purposes instead of "educational purposes"to give the same meaning.
As in-: These risky experiments are being carried out only for heuristic/pedagogical purposes.
Please tell me are "heuristic,pedagogical and educational" synonymous?
