Pengelompokan Gaya Belajar Secara Homogen dalam Mendukung Pembelajaran Diferensiasi Proses Siswa

Abstract

Education plays a crucial role in realizing the potential of individuals in various aspects. The learning process is central in bringing about changes in individuals. Different learning styles are a crucial factor in the effectiveness of learning. This research proposes a homogenous learning style grouping approach to support differentiated learning processes in the educational environment. The aim of this research is to explain the importance of understanding students' learning styles and how differentiated learning approaches can maximize their learning potential. The research method used is qualitative, applying a Problem Based Learning (PBL) approach and grouping students based on their learning styles. This study involved 10th-grade students in SMAN Mumbulsari, who exhibited various learning styles, including kinesthetic, auditory, and visual. The research results indicate that the differentiated learning process with student grouping based on their learning styles can enhance student learning activities. Students grouped with similar learning styles have more effective interactions and achieve better learning outcomes. The implications of this research include benefits for both students and teachers, such as improved learning services, fair treatment without discrimination, and the optimal development of students' potential.
