The main concern addressed in this research is whether implementing a directive teaching approach influences the enhancement of fundamental dribbling skills using the back foot in soccer among students at Senduk Christian Junior High School. The study employed an experimental design, dividing 20 participants into two groups of 10 each, and utilized a randomized controlled pre-test and post-test design. The assessment tool employed evaluated the proficiency in basic dribbling techniques using the top of the foot during soccer matches. The hypothesis posited that employing a directive teaching style would impact the learning of fundamental dribbling techniques using the sole of the foot in soccer among students at Senduk Christian Junior High School. Data analysis involved the use of the t-test, preceded by tests for data variance homogeneity and normality. The hypothesis suggested that employing a directive teaching style influences the acquisition of basic dribbling skills among Senduk Christian Junior High School students. The study concluded that utilizing a directive teaching style indeed contributes to the improvement of basic dribbling skills using the sole of the foot in soccer matches among students at Senduk Christian Junior High School. This was supported by a calculated t-value exceeding the critical t-value, where t-value = 4.891 > critical t-value = 2.101.

This study examines the impact of differentiated learning models in inclusive educational settings, focusing on their effect on student participation, motivation, and academic performance. Differentiated instruction (DI) adapts content, teaching methods, and assessments to meet the diverse learning styles, interests, and abilities of students. Using a mixed methods approach, the research combines quantitative and qualitative data to explore how DI influences engagement and academic outcomes in diverse classrooms. The findings show that DI significantly increased student participation, as lessons tailored to individual strengths encouraged more active involvement. Motivation also improved, with students displaying higher intrinsic motivation when engaging with relevant material at their own pace. Additionally, academic performance improved, especially for students who had struggled with traditional teaching methods. These results suggest that DI is an effective strategy for inclusive education, particularly for students with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). The study emphasizes the importance of teacher training and ongoing professional development for successful DI implementation. The implications are significant for global educational settings, where classrooms are becoming more diverse. By adopting differentiated strategies, educators can create more equitable and inclusive learning experiences. Future research should explore the long-term effects of DI in various cultural and educational contexts.
