Optimization of mathematical and language intelligence through Differentiation of Learning Object Materials Based on Multiple Intelligences

Abstract

 Differentiated Learning Object Material (DLOM) based on Multiple Intelligences is crucial for supporting the abilities of children with special needs (ABK). Children with special needs have unique abilities and learning styles, making conventional learning approaches often ineffective. The first urgency, namely DLOM based on Multiple Intelligences, is to provide opportunities for ABK to learn in a way that best suits their unique abilities. For example, children with kinesthetic intelligence can learn through physical activities, while children with visual-spatial intelligence can understand material through images or videos. The second urgency, namely the development of this DLOM, is very high because ABK often face challenges in accessing equal education. The objectives of this study are: 1) to design and develop differentiated DLOM based on MI and 2) to test the validity of DLOM based on MI. The validity of DLOM will be tested by design experts, learning/curriculum technology experts, and content experts. The development model used is the ADDIE model with a questionnaire as an instrument. The results of the validity test show that DLOM has very good validity in the media, design, and learning content aspects.
