ADAPTIVE LEARNING DESIGN FOR EARLY CHILDHOOD WITH DIVERSE ABILITIES (INCLUSIVE EDUCATION)

Abstract

This research aims to examine the application of adaptive learning design in supporting inclusive education for young children with diverse abilities. The method used was descriptive-qualitative with a literature review, which identified three main aspects supporting the adaptive approach's success. The findings show that there are three main aspects that support the success of the adaptive approach. 1) The diversity of early childhood needs requires the implementation of learning that is tailored to individual characteristics, such as visual, auditory or kinesthetic learning styles. 2) Teachers play an important role in creating an inclusive learning environment by understanding the uniqueness of each child and customizing appropriate learning strategies. In addition, collaboration between teachers, parents and the community is also an important factor in meeting children's needs holistically. The teacher's role as a facilitator and liaison between students, families and other professionals is crucial. 3) The use of media and technology, such as educational apps and interactive software, can enrich the learning experience and create a dynamic and inclusive environment. Through the implementation of adaptive learning design that involves various parties and modern technology, inclusive education can be implemented effectively, providing optimal opportunities for children to develop accordingly.
