Etymology

The word "instructional" derives from the Latin instructio (a building, arrangement, teaching), formed from instructus, the past participle of instruere (to build, arrange, teach). The root struct (to build) is shared with words like "structure" and "construct." Over time, instruct evolved to emphasize the "teaching" aspect of arranging knowledge. The suffix -ion turns verbs into nouns, and -al converts nouns into adjectives, giving "instructional" its modern meaning of "related to teaching."
