Abstract


Adaptive learning in numeracy skills for slow learners is an important approach in supporting inclusive learning. Slow learners tend to experience difficulties in understanding abstract mathematical concepts, problem solving, and the use of mathematical symbols, thus requiring more flexible and contextual learning. This study aims to analyze the implementation of adaptive learning in improving numeracy skills in slow learners through the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method. The research sample consisted of 20 journal articles published between 2017 and 2026 and indexed by Scopus (Q1–Q4) and SINTA (S1–S3). The results of the study indicate that adaptive learning through contextual learning, mathematical modeling, individual support, and the use of concrete media can help slow learners understand numeracy more gradually and meaningfully. However, its implementation still faces obstacles, such as the still-uniform learning, teacher readiness, and limited media and flexible assessments. Overall, adaptive learning plays an important role in supporting the numeracy skills of slow learners through flexible and student-centered learning.

 

Pembelajaran adaptif dalam kemampuan numerasi pada slow learner menjadi pendekatan penting dalam mendukung pembelajaran inklusif. Slow learner cenderung mengalami kesulitan dalam memahami konsep matematika abstrak, pemecahan masalah, dan penggunaan simbol matematika sehingga membutuhkan pembelajaran yang lebih fleksibel dan kontekstual. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis implementasi pembelajaran adaptif dalam meningkatkan kemampuan numerasi pada slow learner melalui metode Systematic Literature Review (SLR). Sampel penelitian terdiri atas 20 artikel jurnal yang dipublikasikan pada tahun 2017–2026 dan terindeks Scopus (Q1–Q4) serta SINTA (S1–S3).  Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa pembelajaran adaptif melalui pembelajaran kontekstual, pemodelan matematika, dukungan individual, dan penggunaan media konkret dapat membantu slow learner memahami numerasi secara lebih bertahap dan bermakna. Namun, implementasinya masih menghadapi kendala, seperti pembelajaran yang masih seragam, kesiapan guru, serta keterbatasan media dan asesmen yang fleksibel. Secara keseluruhan, pembelajaran adaptif berperan penting dalam mendukung kemampuan numerasi slow learner melalui pembelajaran yang fleksibel dan berpusat pada kebutuhan peserta didik.
