Abstract

This community service activity aimed to train teachers in implementing the reward and punishment strategy to enhance student learning motivation in a school environment. The strategy is rooted in behaviorist theory, which asserts that positive reinforcement (reward) and corrective measures (punishment) can effectively shape student behavior. A qualitative participatory approach was used, involving stakeholders actively in planning, execution, and evaluation. The training was conducted at SMP Muhammadiyah 2 Bandar Lampung, targeting 57 teachers with diverse subject backgrounds. The program focused on both the theoretical foundations and practical applications of reward and punishment in classrooms, emphasizing positive and non-violent disciplinary methods. Evaluation through pre- and post-training questionnaires showed a 14% increase in teachers’ understanding of the strategy, accompanied by more positive attitudes toward its classroom use. The results indicate that training enhanced teachers’ competencies in motivational classroom management, which could contribute to improving the quality of learning. This service underscores the importance of ongoing teacher development for fostering effective learning environments.
