Management of Instruction
• Instruction may be well-managed using any of these
classifications of students:
• a. HOMOGENEOUS - learners are
classified/grouped in terms of similar elements such
as age, abilities, interests, physical characteristics
etc.
• b. HETEROGENEOUS – no definite bases for
clustering or putting learners together, could be on
random sampling, alphabetized family names, time
of enrollment etc.
• c. NON – GRADED – no fixed grade/level
assignment of children. They come to center of
learning by small groups or individually depending
on their pacing in the accomplishment of tasks.

teaching of the heart.
