Hubungan Kompetensi Pedagogik Guru PAI dengan Motivasi Belajar Siswa

Abstract

This study was motivated by the phenomenon of low student learning motivation in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) subjects at Senior High School 4 Tanjung Jabung Timur. This problem is evident from the lack of student attention, low active participation, less conducive classroom environment, and the use of monotonous learning methods and media. This study aims to measure the level of teacher pedagogical competence mastery, the level of student learning motivation, and test the relationship between PAI teacher pedagogical competence mastery and student learning motivation. The research method used is a quantitative approach with a correlational design. The research sample consisted of 92 eleventh-grade students selected using total sampling technique. Data collection was conducted through questionnaires and documentation, analyzed using the product-moment correlation test. The results showed that teacher pedagogical competence mastery and student learning motivation were in the moderate category, at 63.04% and 67.39%, respectively. There is a positive and significant relationship between PAI teacher pedagogical competence mastery and student learning motivation, with a correlation coefficient of 0.458 (moderate category) and a significance value of 0.000 < 0.05. The contribution of PAI teacher pedagogical competence to student learning motivation is 20.9%. The implication of this study emphasizes the importance of enhancing PAI teachers' pedagogical competence in designing varied and interactive learning to optimize student learning motivation.
