The Effect of Prior Knowledge and Learning Motivation on Mathematics Learning Outcomes of Junior High School Students
Abstract
Abstract This research aimed to analyze the effect of prior knowledge and learning motivation on the mathematics achievement of junior high school students. This research is a correlational study involving 30 respondents who were taken by cluster random sampling technique. The research instrument consisted of a prior knowledge test and a learning motivation questionnaire. The research data were analyzed using simple and multiple linear regression tests. The results showed that prior knowledge had a strong effect on mathematics achievement (correlation level 0.739) and learning motivation had a very strong effect on mathematics achievement (correlation level 0.806). The results of the multiple regression test show that the prior knowledge and learning motivation simultaneously strongly influence students' mathematics achievement (correlation level 0.837). The results of this study prove that prior knowledge and learning motivation are essential factors in supporting the success of the learning process.
Keywords prior knowledge, learning motivation, mathematics achievement.
Abstrak Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh pengetahuan awal dan motivasi belajar terhadap hasil belajar matematika siswa SMP. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian korelational yang melibatkan 30 responden yang diambil dengan teknik cluster random sampling. Instrumen penelitian terdiri dari soal tes kemampuan awal dan angket motivasi belajar. Data penelitian di analisis dengan uji regresi linier sederhana dan ganda. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kemampuan awal berpengaruh kuat terhadap hasil belajar matematika (taraf korelasi 0,739) dan motivasi belajar berpengaruh sangat kuat terhadap hasil belajar matematika (taraf korelasi 0,806). Hasil uji regresi ganda menunjukkan bahwa kemampuan awal dan motivasi belajar secara bersama-sama memberikan pengaruh yang sangat kuat terhadap hasil belajar matematika siswa (taraf korelasi 0,837). Hasil penelitian ini membuktikan bahwa kemampuan awal dan motivasi belajar adalah faktor penting dalam menunjang keberhasilan proses belajar.
Kata kunci: kemampuan awal, motivasi belajar, hasil belajar matematika.
