INDIVIDUALIZATION OF MATHEMATICS EDUCATION BASED ON THE DIFFERENTIAL APPROACH: INTEGRATION OF MODERN METHODS

Source abstract

This study explores how differentiated instruction can be effectively implemented in higher education settings by integrating modern pedagogical strategies, including gamification, storytelling, STEAM-based learning, reverse problem-solving, and programming-oriented tasks. The paper examines how these harmonized approaches enable educators to create adaptive learning environments tailored to each student’s unique needs, enhancing engagement and conceptual understanding. Through а methodological synthesis of theoretical perspectives and practical applications, the research demonstrates that combining differentiated teaching with innovative tools fosters а dynamic learning process. Particular attention is given to how each method promotes deeper mathematical thinking, encourages self-paced exploration, and develops transferable problem-solving skills. The findings indicate that а well-designed blended model not only improves academic outcomes but also creates а more inclusive and motivational learning environment. Notably, an experimental lesson conducted with two groups (22 and 25 students) achieved average Quizizz scores of 90% and 85%, respectively, which were 10% more effective than previous lessons using Kahoot. These results confirm the adaptability of modern methods to diverse learner needs and their ability to enrich the learning process.
