Abstract
This study aimed to determine the stages of analysing the characteristics of education units implemented by SDN 40 Ampenan and SMPN 7 Mataram. This research method uses qualitative research methods. The data used in this research is qualitative. The data collection techniques used in this research are observation, interview and document/documentation study. In this research, the data analysis technique used is the descriptive qualitative data analysis technique of the interactive model "Miles & Huberman", which consists of four stages: data collection, data reduction, data presentation, and conclusions. The results showed that the analysis of the characteristics of education units carried out at SDN 40 Ampenan and SMPN 7 Mataram analysed students' factors using cognitive and non-cognitive diagnostic assessments. The form and format of the check used by teachers in both schools differ depending on the level or class taught, such as grade 1 and grade 4. The form and content of the assessment are different. The review results then become the teacher's reference in designing methods, learning strategies, and preparing teaching materials to support the differentiated and learner-centred learning process by the learning principles of the independent curriculum.
