Differentiated learning is learning that is adjusted to the learning needs of students and is a learning model that is in line with the independent curriculum learning, which emphasizes learning that is student-centered, oriented to the learning needs and environment of students. This is stated in Law No. 20 of 2003 concerning the National Education System that the curriculum at all levels and types of education is developed with the principle of diversification in accordance with the educational unit, regional potential, and students. This differentiated learning is also a solution to the problem of learning difficulties in Social Studies learning caused by educators delivering material using only one learning method, which is less understood by students. Thus, differentiated learning is very necessary to be implemented in social studies subjects so that the learning needs of students, namely in terms of learning styles, talents, and interests, can be met and learning objectives are achieved. The focus of this research in this thesis is: 1) How is the implementation of process differentiation learning in Social Studies subjects at State Junior High School 4 Jember in the 2023/2024 academic year? 2) How is the implementation of product differentiation learning in Social Studies subjects at State Junior High School 4 Jember in the 2023/2024 academic year?. The approach used in this research is qualitative with a descriptive qualitative type. Data collection techniques use observation, interviews, and documents. Data analysis uses the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldana. Data validity uses source triangulation and technique triangulation. The conclusions of this research are that 1) The implementation of process differentiation learning in Social Studies subjects at State Junior High School 4 Jember is carried out by educators delivering material using different methods/learning styles, diverse learning media, group activity arrangements, and different practice activities according to students' learning styles. 2) The implementation of product differentiation learning in Social Studies subjects at State Junior High School 4 Jember is carried out by giving students choices in producing works/products related to the material that has been learned, providing different time durations for making and collecting works/products, and giving students challenges to present their works/products.
