Differentiated instruction is an important teaching approach that adapts educational experiences to fit the varied needs and learning styles of students in the classroom. This study examines the trend of research on differentiated instruction, using a bibliometric analysis to understand the current state of research in this area. The analysis was performed using online databases such as Scopus to locate relevant research articles from 1961 to 2023. The results of the analysis revealed that 746 articles were examined, focusing on factors such as publication year, language, journal, authors, and keywords. The findings indicate a gradual increase in research on differentiated instruction, with a significant rise in the number of articles published in recent years. The majority of the research articles were written in English and authored by scholars from universities in the USA and Europe. The keywords used most frequently in the articles included differentiated instruction, inclusive education and differentiation. This study provides a comprehensive view of the research trends in differentiated instruction, underscoring the need for further research to enhance our understanding of the approach's effectiveness and its impact on student learning outcomes. Recommendations for future research in the field of differentiated instruction include the need for research on themes and concepts that are less studied in the field, such as the application of differentiated learning in online learning, and the use of technology in differentiated instruction.
