Problem-Based Differentiation Learning Design in Class X High School Exponent Material

Abstract

Problem-based differentiation learning is learning that begins with real-world problems (real problems), which students can then solve real problems guided by problem-based steps. With the use of problem-based differentiation learning students can foster interest in learning in learning mathematics. Not only that, this problem-based differentiation learning design is also associated with learning styles, where there are three learning styles used, namely: audio learning styles, visual learning styles, and kinesthetic learning styles. The method used in this study is the design research method type of validation studies, which is a form of qualitative approach. Design research aims to develop Local Instructional Theory (LIT) with the collaboration of researchers and teachers to improve the quality of learning. The implementation of differentiation learning at the beginning of learning makes students excited and able to recall about the exponents and also when the learning process takes place they learn with their own learning style so that learning becomes active, by applying their own learning style it makes them more relaxed during learning and more focused .
