Abstract

The level of quality of education within a country is a manifestation of the government towards the progress of its people. One indicator of the quality of education is the learning outcomes achieved by students. One of the factors that determine student learning outcomes is learning motivation. Motivated students tend to seek meaningful and meaningful academic activities for themselves, so that learning outcomes increase. This study aims to determine the relationship between learning motivation with student learning outcomes at Medan State University. This research applies experimental research through correlational design. The population in this study is all students of FMIPA semester 1 who follow the Basic Concept of Chemistry course in the academic year 2017/2018. The sampling technique is purposive sampling. The sample of this research is regular class students of chemical education C and Mathematics education C. Instrument research in the form of objective test of learning result valid and reliable, motivation questionnaire. This study uses statistical analysis techniques using regression analysis. The findings of this study indicate that learning motivation significantly correlated with student learning outcomes, with rxy value = 0.712 and obtained coefficient of determination (r2) of 0,507. The results recommend that the university administer the assisted learning program that can help students to motivate themselves in improving learning outcomes.
