Adaptive learning is a teaching approach aiming to personalize the learning experience for each student. In Computer Science Education (CSE), Adaptive Learning Systems (ALS) can provide students with customized lessons, exercises, and assessments based on their previous knowledge, strengths, and weaknesses. Some literature reviews focus on…

This qualitative exploratory case study delves into learners' understanding of differentiation through the first principle and power rule. The study adopted the action, process, object, and schema (APOS) theory as a lens to track learners' understanding of these concepts using the activities, classroom discussion, and exercise (ACE) teaching…

Muscle physiology is often perceived as a complex topic by students because of the hierarchical concepts and the need for integrative understanding. Breaking down content in a structured manner allows for segmented bite-sized learning that may enhance students' learning beyond conventional online lectures. We compared the effectiveness of 1)…

The prevalence of online education systems provides opportunities to deliver personalized learning at scale. Educational systems need to assess students so that they can provide better curricula tailored to each student's unique needs. Since there is a limited amount of time for quizzing a student, we need to test each student using those…

Primary school students with both giftedness and learning disabilities (SGLD) in inclusive educational settings may not always receive a differentiated curriculum. Differentiation in all-level classrooms is necessary for consistently meeting the needs of SGLD. There is insufficient research on teachers' knowledge of SGLD and differentiation in…

Higher education faculty have begun to explore innovative teaching methods in response to the increased diversity of undergraduate degree seekers. Differentiated instruction (DI), popularly utilized in K-12 education, offers an approach to teaching that relies on continuous assessment designed to inform educators of how to adjust content, process,…

Differentiated instruction is a proactive teaching model and philosophy with demonstrated potential to cater for diverse learners and create inclusive classrooms. There is little research, however, into the implementation of this approach in the senior secondary classroom. Teachers' implementation of differentiated instruction has been shown to be…

There is a paucity of research in Australia about educators' use of differentiated instruction (DI) to support the learning of students with ADHD. This study reports on a small-scale, qualitative research using interviews with teachers and school leaders to identify how they use DI as an effective teaching instruction for students with ADHD.…

A survey was developed to obtain information on practitioner self-reported knowledge, use, and perceived effectiveness of classroom-based practices for the inclusive instruction of students with emotional disturbance (ED). This study reports descriptive results for a sample of general and special education teachers from the northeastern United…

Based on cognitive load theory, this paper reports on two experiments investigating the variability effect that occurs when learners' exposure to highly variable tasks results in superior test performance. It was hypothesised that the effect was more likely to occur using high rather than low levels of guidance and testing more knowledgeable than…

The concept of inclusive education stressed the classroom conditions for students with disabilities (SWDs) as they strive to achieve their maximum learning potential alongside their nondisabled peers. The feat proved to be challenging as teachers implement instructions that meet federal laws, district guidelines and policies, schools' visions, and…

English learners (ELs) make up a significant portion of the nation's K-12 student population who come from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds. ELs bring a wealth of diversity to the United States' education system; however, teachers' limited knowledge and practices that integrate ELs' cultural, linguistic, and prior educational…

Cooperative learning is an evidence-based teaching strategy. In cooperative learning, teachers structure students' interactions and prepare them for cooperation so that students work together in small groups supporting each other's' learning processes. This study investigated whether the empirical evidence of the effectiveness of cooperative…

Background: Indonesia's implementation of inclusive education continues to help support students' development of academic abilities and social skills. However, it also poses challenges for several parties involved in the administration of inclusive education in rural areas: in particular, teachers from general education backgrounds. Purpose: This…

A design experiment with 18 students in a regular seventh grade math class was conducted to investigate how to differentiate instruction for students' diverse ways of thinking during a 26-day unit on proportional reasoning. The class included students operating with three different multiplicative concepts that have been found to influence rational…
