2. Optimize for Equal Distribution

Setting Instructor Priorities
Customize instructor selection with priority levels:

Medium Priority: Chosen if no high-priority instructors are free
Low Priority: Assigned only if no high or medium priority instructors are available
This allows for fine-tuned control over instructor assignment preferences.
