What is an instructional decision?
Instructional decision is a procedure of determining what is suitable for students to improve their achievements and to guide their efforts to improve. Teachers use the data gathered from different assessment tools to take instructional decisions on daily basis in everyday classroom. A good instructional decision is the one which is designed to improve learning of all students.
Let us compare the approaches of Mr. Hani and Ms. Layal in the classroom.
