Abstract

A variety of differentiated approach students’ worksheets depict pivotal role to support meaningful and interesting English language learning. Through the application of developmental research, this study aimed at designing and developing the feasibility of a differentiated-based workbook to improve students’ reading comprehension skills. The developed product was expected to meet the students’ needs in accordance with their learning styles. This study was conducted at Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, Sriwijaya University, Indonesia, by applying a model by Akker (1999), which involves the phases of analysis, design, evaluation and revision modified by Tessmer (1993). A model by O’Brein (1985) was also used to identify students’ learning styles, namely visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learners. Questionnaire, test and interview were delivered to gain the data from 38 students, in which three participants in one-to-one evaluation, nine students in small group evaluation, and 26 participants in field test. Content validity demonstrated high validity, with the average score of 4,15. Through the construct validity, the workbook had high validity with the average score of 4,65 while technology validity proved its validity with revision in the average score of 4,4. The one-to-one evaluation included three students, with one student exemplifying three distinct learning styles, achieving an average score of 3.8. The practicality and effectiveness of this developed workbook based on learning styles showed excellent result with the average score of 4.16. In summary, differentiated approach-based students’ worksheet can be used to teach and improve students’ reading comprehension skills.

Abstract

The shifting of teaching and learning mode results in the urgency of the development of instructional materials. Ironically, the availability of web-based instructional reading material on the basis of learning style is still limited. This developmental study examined data qualitatively and quantitatively from 16 questionnaire respondents, six interviewees and two lecturers to investigate the needs of developing instructional materials, the extent to how lecturers shaped their beliefs, students’ reading level, and students’ learning styles. This study also aimed at finding out the validity, practicality, and the effectiveness of developed product. Three students involved in one-to-one evaluation, nine students in small group evaluation and 17 students in the field test. This research implemented a four-stage model by Akker. Formerly, the result of analysis phase represented some analysis points. Furthermore, the product was highly valid on its content, construct and technology use with average score 4.4. The average scores of practicalities were 4.1 in one-to-one evaluation and 4.2 in small group evaluation. High validity with the score 4.3 was the result of the field test. Potential effect was also high in the average score of reading test, 86.47. This study, expectedly, gives favourable impact to the teachers and students in the future.
