They are both transfers of energy. Conduction is the transfer of energy through a solid (Think: heat through a metal pan on a stove, or electricity through a wire). Radiation is the transfer of energy through space (Think: The sun's rays landing on your skin giving you a tan, or a laser through the air.)
