Penerapan Desain Universal Pembelajaran (DUP) untuk Meningkatkan Hasil Belajar Murid Kelas V pada Materi Rantai Makanan di SDN Dukuh Kupang III/490

Abstract

Learning in fifth-grade classrooms often reveals differences in students' learning needs, both in how
they receive information and how they take part in learning activities, so that not all students can learn
optimally when instruction is delivered in a single uniform way. This classroom action research aimed to
improve the learning outcomes of fifth-grade students at SDN Dukuh Kupang III/490 on food chain material
through the implementation of Universal Design for Learning (UDL). The study used the Kemmis and
McTaggart action research model carried out in two cycles, each consisting of planning, action and
observation, and reflection stages. Data were collected through pretests, posttests, an UDL-implementation
observation sheet, a student-activity observation sheet, worksheets, and documentation, then analyzed through
class averages and mastery percentages. The findings showed a consistent increase in the average score and in
the percentage of students reaching the minimum learning-achievement criteria from the pre-cycle to Cycle I
and Cycle II, indicating that UDL implementation effectively improved students' learning outcomes and
classroom engagement.
