Abstract

This study is intended to investigate the approaches employed by teachers in instructing English through differentiated instruction. A case study methodology was employed, focusing on three English teachers at SMPN 5 Padang Panjang. Data collection involved conducting interviews and making observations. The data was then analyzed through triangulation. The findings revealed that differentiated instruction involves adapting teaching methods to suit the individual needs of students. This is deemed crucial as it allows teachers to provide multiple avenues for students to comprehend information, addressing the diverse needs present within a classroom. Teachers utilize various strategies, including adjustments in content, process, product, and learning environment, to accommodate these needs while maintaining focus on the same topic. The study suggests that differentiated instruction in English education is grounded in the identification of students' learning needs, typically assessed through initial surveys, pretests, or diagnostic assessments. Subsequently, teachers tailor English instruction based on these assessments. Additionally, teachers conduct both summative and formative evaluations to assess the effectiveness of their instructional strategies

Abstract

The aim of this study was to develop an integrated model for enhancing students’ English competence through habituation and the language environment at the State Islamic University of Imam Bonjol Padang. The research and development type was used to develop the model in four phases, namely, need analysis, designing the model, validating, and a hypothetical model. 350 randomly selected active students participated in this research. Observation, questionnaires, interviews, and the TOEFL test were used to collect the data. The findings revealed that students' English competence was low, with a mean score of 65. Students tended to develop their competences through listening to music for listening skills, reading articles for reading skills, practicing individually for speaking skills, and sending messages for writing skills, with a mean score of 4.06. Reading, speaking, and writing skills were mostly improving. Students expressed a high demand for English club activities and academic English services to enhance their English competence through habituation and the language environment, with mean satisfaction scores of 84% and 86%. The hypothetical Integrated English Model (IEM) for enhancing English competence through habituation and the language environment consisted of four main phases: planning, organizing, implementing, and evaluating. The study concludes that designing this integrated model is crucial for improving students' English competence at the State Islamic University of Imam Bonjol Padang. It implies that an integrated English model for enhancing English competence will lead to significant improvements in English competence among students.Â
