👉 In the context of educational settings, "preinstructional" refers to a phase or stage prior to the actual instruction or instructional activity. This can include activities such as reviewing materials, discussing topics with students, providing feedback on assignments, and preparing for the next steps in an instructional process. Preinstructional activities are typically designed to support student learning by providing context, guidance, and resources that help students acquire knowledge and skills before engaging in more formal instruction or assessment.
