Abstract

Teachers at SD Negeri Pundungrejo 03 have difficulty implementing differentiated learning and tend to
use existing learning devices without modification. This community service activity aims to improve
teachers' ability to implement the differentiated Independent Curriculum with the Teaching at the Right
Level (TaRL) and Culturally Responsive Teaching (CRT) approaches. This activity was carried out directly
at SD Negeri Pundungrejo 03 Sukoharjo. The community service implementation procedure refers to the
APTE stages (Needs Analysis, Training and Mentoring, Action, and Evaluation). The pretest results
showed that teachers' initial understanding of the development of TaRL and CRT-based learning devices
was still low. However, after mentoring, the posttest results showed a significant increase in teacher
knowledge and skills. Indicators of success can be seen from the ability of teachers to develop learning
devices according to students' thinking levels and their cultural backgrounds. Teachers also showed high
enthusiasm in improving the quality of the learning process.
