Abstract

This study aims to describe the implementation of differentiated learning based on learning styles in the Arts and Culture subject for 7th-grade students at SMPN 14 Malang, and to assess its impact on students' learning outcomes and motivation. The research employed a qualitative method using descriptive research. The findings indicate that differentiated learning based on learning styles can be effectively implemented in 7th-grade classes at SMPN 14 Malang in the Arts and Culture subject. The implementation of differentiated learning based on learning styles positively influences students' learning outcomes and motivation. During the semester-long implementation of differentiated learning, the focus was on art creation for change, featuring the traditional art of "bantengan" performance as a project undertaken and presented by the students. Students were grouped according to their individual learning styles: kinesthetic, auditory, and visual. Following the bantengan performance, an evaluation phase was conducted to assess the students' presentations. The results of implementing differentiated learning based on learning styles showed improvements in both student motivation and learning outcomes, contributing to the development of students' character in line with the Pancasila educational philosophy. In conclusion, this research highlights the efficacy of differentiated learning approaches tailored to students' learning styles in enhancing engagement and learning outcomes in the Arts and Culture subject at SMPN 14 Malang. It underscores the importance of personalized teaching methods to accommodate diverse learning preferences, ultimately fostering a conducive learning environment that supports holistic student development.
