Conceptual Framework
In this study, the differentiated instructions serve as the independent variable, influencing the
other variable. Differentiated instruction aims to establish maximal learning opportunities by
differentiating the instruction in terms of content, process, and product in accordance with
students their readiness, interests and learning profiles (Tomlinson, 2017). Moreover, in a
differentiated classroom, the teacher can use various contents, methods, products, and learning
environments considering the students’ condition: students’ readiness, learning styles, and
talents, skills, abilities, cultural and social background (Ismajli & Imami-Morina, 2018;
Magableh & Abdullah, 2020). With these adjustments, the students are motivated and engaged
actively in the learning process (Danley & Williams, 2020). In this study, the researchers will
utilize two differentiated instructions: the roleplaying and storytelling, that aims to enhance the
speaking skills of introvert and extrovert learners.
The speaking skill is considered the dependent variable. Researchers can assess and monitor the
students' speaking skills by determining their proficiency level. Through differentiated
instruction, researchers can evaluate the potential impacts and improvements in the speaking
skills of introverted and extroverted learners. Nevertheless, the effect of DI on speaking skills of
introvert and extrovert leaners may vary.
Conceptual Paradigm
Methods
The researchers will employ an experimental design using quantitative research. Quantitative
research is defined by Creswell as a means for testing objective theories by examining the
relationship among variables. Quantitative data is typically collected in numerical form and
analyzed using statistical analysis. The researchers will utilize pre-task and post-task in a
particular class in one of the elementary schools in Magalang, Pampanga. Creswell states that
prior to a participant receiving a treatment in an experiment, a pre-test serves as an examine for
certain qualities or traits that will be evaluated. A post-test, on the other hand, measures certain
qualities or traits that study participants will have evaluated afterwards a treatment. With
customized teaching, the researchers will conduct this study to assess the effectiveness of
differentiated instruction in enhancing the speaking skills of learners. Researchers can obtain
important information on the effects of interventions while taking participant differences into
account by combining pre-task and post-task evaluations in a quasi-experimental approach. By
utilizing a combination of pre-task and post-task activities within a quasi-experimental design,
researchers can gather valuable data on the impact of interventions while accounting for pre-
existing differences among the respondents
