Abstract:
This mixed-method study examines data gathered from 101 elementary teachers to investigate their perceptions about Differentiated Instruction (DI) based on qualification and experience. The study also explores the challenges of implementing DI. A survey questionnaire with both Likert-type and open-ended questions was utilised to collect data. The results indicated that teachers had a high perception on DI, while no statistically significant difference in teachers’ perceptions based on their experience and qualification was identified. Additionally, lack of resources, time, support, knowledge, and class size were identified as barriers for DI implementation.
