Instruction

Instruction is the act of giving someone the tools, knowledge, or steps they need to learn or do something. It’s like when a teacher explains a math problem, a coach shows you how to throw a ball, or a recipe guides you through baking a cake. Instruction is all about providing clear, helpful information or guidance so someone can understand, practice, and master a skill or concept. In short, it’s the "how-to" part of teaching and learning.
