I believe that deductive reasoning goes from something general to a particular statement, while inductive starts for a specific or particular statement to a general statement.
Example of deductive reasoning:
General statement: All dogs barks.
All german shepards bark.Specific statement: Therefore, german shepards are dogs.
Example of inductive reasoning:
Specific statement: Dogs are mammals.
Dogs produce milk.
General statement: Therefore, all mammals produce milk.
