The academic study of instruction may involve the creation of curricula to facilitate better student learning experiences. Students of instruction programs may encounter a variety of education-based subjects, including practical instructional design techniques and the laws and ethics of current educational practices.

A master’s degree is an advanced academic program that can take about two years of full-time schooling to earn, provided students have already received a bachelor’s degree. Earning an MA may help students achieve their educational goals and set them on the path toward accomplishing their professional goals as well.
