Impact of Differentiated Instruction on English Language Learners: Maximizing Academic Success

This research paper explores the impact of differentiated instruction on the academic success of English Language Learners (ELLs), a group that frequently encounters distinct challenges in educational settings. The study utilises a quantitative methodology, adopting a pre-test/post-test control group design to generate robust, empirical data that can clarify the effectiveness of this teaching approach. The sample of the study consists of 200 ELL pupils, selected from two schools with similar demographic and academic profiles. These pupils were evenly divided into an experimental group, which received differentiated instruction, and a control group, which was taught through traditional methods. Differentiated instruction, in this context, refers to tailored teaching strategies that address the varied needs, learning styles, and linguistic backgrounds of ELL pupils. The study's primary findings indicate that differentiated instruction has a positive influence on the academic success of ELLs. This is demonstrated by the noticeable improvement in the experimental group's scores on standardised English language proficiency tests and their overall academic achievement. These results support the notion that individualised teaching approaches can more effectively equip ELL pupils with the language skills and knowledge required to excel in an English-speaking academic setting.

Impact of the Blended Teaching Model on Learning Outcomes

Blended teaching and other information teaching models promote a new type of teaching revolution and enhance the interaction and communication among teachers and students. However, most colleges and universities still adopt the traditional teaching model where students’ learning efficiency and quality are relatively low with teachers’ spoon-feeding delivery. The Bridge–Objective–Bridge–Pre-assessment–Participatory Learning–Post-assessment–Summary (BOPPPS) model advocates showing students clear learning objectives in leaning to form a learning objective-oriented model. The Presentation–Assimilation–Discussion (PAD) Class is conducive to cultivating learners’ high cognitive levels; in the presentation session, teachers simply refine and explain the framework and key points to help learners build a knowledge network. Based on BOPPPS and PAD Class models, a 15-week blended teaching experiment was conducted in the Computer Technology Translation course in Harbin Normal University of China. Results show that the significant p-value corresponding to the t-value of the pretest scores of control and experimental groups is 0.255, greater than 0.05, which is in line with the basic premise of this teaching experiment; the mean values of the posttest scores of students in the experimental and control groups of the paired-sample t-test are significant at 1% and 10% significance levels, compared with the mean values of pretest scores, respectively; in the traditional teaching model, female students tend to demonstrate more learning advantages than male students, whereas no difference is observed in the learning outcomes between males and females in the experimental group. Thus, the adoption of BOPPPS and PAD Class models can enhance the learning outcomes of males and females. Our findings provide new ideas and methods for deepening the development of the theoretical basis of PAD Class, expanding the perspective and application of BOPPPS and improving students’ learning enthusiasm and classroom participation effectively.

The effects of education on foot care behaviors and self-efficacy in type 2 diabetes patients.

Diabetic foot significantly affects the quality of life of patients with diabetes. It leads to loss of labor force, psychosocial trauma, and high treatment costs due to serious morbidity and mortality. Nurses have an important responsibility to improve the metabolic status of individuals with diabetes, to protect them from foot complications, and to teach patients foot care skills. This study investigated the effects of education on type 2 diabetes patients regarding diabetic foot care and self-efficacy. This quasi-experimental study was conducted from February to July 2016 in hospitals located in the city of Balıkesir in Turkey with type 2 diabetes patients who were admitted to the internal medicine clinic and monitored by the endocrinology and internal medicine outpatient clinics. G*power 3.1.9.2 software was used to calculate the sample size of 94 people with a 5% type 1 error, and 90% power. The study was carried out with stratified randomization, and a questionnaire was administered to the experimental and control groups. The experimental group received training, and both groups' scores on the Diabetic Foot Behavior Questionnaire [Appendix 1] and the Diabetic Foot Care Self-Efficacy Scale [Appendix 2] were compared after three months. The t-test, the paired t-test, and the Chi-square test were used. While the self-efficacy and the foot care behavior scores of the control group did not show any differences (P > 0.05), the experimental group's scores were significantly higher (P < 0.05). The control group's self-efficacy and foot care behavior scores on the pre-test and final test were similar, while the experimental group's scores increased (P < 0.05). Starting from the diagnosis of diabetes, it is advisable to carry out foot assessments and to follow up with diabetics who received foot care education to increase their self-efficacy, to make foot care a habit, and to re-evaluate missing or incorrect practices during check-ups.
