Abstract

This study examines English language skills within the Merdeka Curriculum, focusing on the writing difficulties faced by students, particularly in producing descriptive texts. The methods commonly employed by teachers tend to emphasize reading skills, which negatively impacts writing learning outcomes. This research utilizes a quantitative approach with a factorial experimental design, involving 64 seventh-grade students at SMP Negeri 1 Adiwerna, divided into control and experimental classes. Data were collected through tests assessing students' writing skills in descriptive texts, with variables including the Project-Based Learning (PjBL) method based on digital infographics, writing learning outcomes, and academic achievement. The analysis results indicate significant differences between pre-test and post-test scores, as well as differences in academic achievement between students in low and high categories. There is also an interaction between academic achievement and the teaching method on students' learning outcomes. This study recommends the development of teaching methods that combine conventional elements with PjBL, as well as the need for teacher training in implementing these methods to enhance students' learning outcomes. Further research is also suggested to explore ways to increase student motivation in the learning process.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the implementation of Multicultural Education through Differentiated Learning in KB Dabin Cahaya, Bojong District, Tegal Regency. This qualitative research analyses the teachers' and managers' understanding of the two concepts, the supporting and inhibiting factors for their implementation, and the impact on students' learning achievement. The results show that teachers and managers have a good understanding of both concepts, but there are still obstacles such as lack of training and resources. Differentiated learning is proven effective in improving students' learning motivation, concept understanding, social skills, self-confidence and critical thinking. This study concludes that the implementation of differentiated learning in the context of multicultural education has great potential in shaping students' characters that are tolerant, respect differences and have good learning achievements.
