Abstract

This study aimed to describe the implementation of differentiated instruction in teaching English to 7th-grade students and to identify the challenges faced by teachers during the process. This qualitative research uses a case study design involving classroom observations, teacher interviews, and analysis of related documents. The subject of this study is an English teacher at a public junior high school in Lamongan who has been implementing differentiated instruction for one year. The results show that the teacher has a good understanding of the concept of differentiated instruction. The steps taken by the teacher include identifying students' learning needs through diagnostic assessments, adjusting the content and process of teaching, grouping students based on their abilities and learning preferences, and providing constructive feedback. The challenges faced include difficulties adapting materials for different classes and the lack of time to determine the differentiation process. Overall, this study provides an in-depth insight into the practice of implementing differentiated instruction in English classes and the challenges faced by teachers.

Abstract

The aim of this study was to analzye the contents Youtube videos called Numberblocks on children’s acquisition of numbers. Numberblocks videos have the highest scores on the content analysis which are the accuracy, age-appropriateness, engagement, and repetition (score = 5) with the lowest scores on pedagogical approaches: real-world connections (score = 3) and interactivity (score = 1). The average score of the linguistic analysis is 4.15 with the lowest score on the language clarity especially on the pace of speech. Numberblocks videos have the perfect average score 5 on the presentation analysis. And in the visual analysis, numbers are mostly represented in various ways (score = 4,5) but real-world examples are rarely used to illustrate number concepts (score = 2,5). It can be concluded that Numberblocks videos are successful to drag young learners’ concept of numbers into the blocks and this helps their acquisition with numbers. However, parents' guidance is needed so that young learners will have more interaction and correlate the idea into real world situations and examples.
