Abstract
This study aimed to explore and evaluate teachers' best practices in meeting the diverse needs of learners through Exploratory Sequential Design. Through comprehensive interviews and focus group discussions, ten primary themes were identified, emphasizing the importance of adopting inclusive practices that cater to individual needs and foster a positive learning environment. The themes included Differentiated Learning Methods, Personalized Inclusive Assessment, and Instructional Technology Integration, among others. An Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) revealed seven underlying dimensions of best practices, such as Culturally Inclusive Education and Empowerment Through Inclusivity, with an overall reliability score (Cronbach’s alpha) of 0.906, indicating high reliability and validity of the measurement instrument. The instrument finalized consists of 61 items across these dimensions. The study concludes that to effectively meet diverse learners' needs, educators must implement differentiated and adaptive learning strategies, integrate instructional technologies, and foster a culture of empathy and cultural inclusivity within the classroom. Recommendations include continuous professional development for teachers in inclusive education practices, integration of culturally representative materials in curricula, and the utilization of gamified learning to enhance student engagement and motivation.
