The Impact of Learning Motivation on Arabic Language Achievement among Islamic Boarding School Students: A Quantitative Study at Baitul Jannah
Keywords:
Learning Motivation, Learning Achievement, Arabic, Islamic Boarding SchoolAbstract
This study aims to analyze the influence of learning motivation on Arabic language learning achievement of students at Baitul Jannah Islamic Boarding School. This study uses a quantitative approach with a correlational design and simple linear regression analysis. The research sample consisted of 31 students selected using a saturated sampling technique. The research instrument was a learning motivation questionnaire compiled based on intrinsic and extrinsic motivation indicators, as well as documentation of Arabic language achievement scores. Data were analyzed through normality tests, linearity tests, and regression tests. The results showed that learning motivation had a positive and significant effect on Arabic language learning achievement (p < 0.05) with a coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.898. This indicates that 89.8% of the variation in learning achievement can be explained by learning motivation, while the remainder is influenced by other factors outside the research model. These findings confirm that learning motivation is a strong predictor of students' academic success in Arabic language learning. Theoretically, this study strengthens the theory of learning motivation in the context of Islamic boarding school education; practically, the results of this study provide strategic implications for the development of Arabic language learning policies based on strengthening students' internal motivation.
