Abstract
Research and publications on differentiated learning in various subjects have actually developed in several countries. However, it seems that there are still very limited studies that integrate it with physical education subjects, even though this differentiated instruction is a learning model that is relevant to the principles of physical educators, namely the principle of Develompmentally Appropriate Practice (DAP) which requires that each learning is given according to the characteristics and needs of students. This study aims to conduct a review of the scientific literature in several countries regarding differentiated learning in physical education to improve physical fitness and active lifestyle. Article search is carried out with the help of the Harzing Publish or Perish program based on the Scopus database. The analysis of the search and screening of articles was carried out by the Preferred Reporting Item fo Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) procedure. Of the 51 articles identified, only six articles remain in the criteria after the exclusion stage is implemented. The results of the study show that the number of research on differentiated learning in physical education specifically to improve physical fitness and active lifestyle is still very minimal and tends to not be researched, so this indicates the need for further research to translate theory into physical education practice. However, from several studies studied in this study, no one has directly examined the impact of the application of differentiated learning to improve physical fitness and active lifestyle of junior high school students, so it is recommended for future researchers to add searches through various data bases other than Scopus, such as Web of Science, PubMed, and Google Scholar.
