This study investigates the relationships among the Big Five Personality Traits, online learning satisfaction, and learning motivation in the context of Indonesian secondary education. The objective is to examine how personality traits influence students’ satisfaction and motivation in virtual learning environments, addressing the gap in understanding these dynamics in younger learners. Employing a correlational quantitative research design, the study involved 149 ninth-grade students from an Islamic junior high school in Indonesia. Data were collected using three validated instruments: The Big Five Inventory Questionnaire, Learner Satisfaction Survey, and English Motivation Questionnaire. Pearson Product-Moment correlation analysis was used to determine the relationships among the variables. The findings reveal strong positive correlations between online learning satisfaction and learning motivation (r = 0.955), the Big Five Personality Traits and satisfaction (r = 0.986), and personality traits and motivation (r = 0.950). Conscientiousness, agreeableness, and openness to experience emerged as significant predictors of satisfaction and motivation. These results highlight the importance of creating supportive and adaptive online learning environments tailored to individual differences. However, the study is limited by its single-school setting and reliance on self-reported data. Future research should expand to diverse educational contexts and explore additional moderating factors. This study recommends designing inclusive virtual learning environments that integrate personality-based teaching strategies to enhance engagement and learning outcomes.

Khikmiyah (2016) menunjukkan bahwa pengetahuan yang dimiliki oleh para guru khususnya guru matematika tentang literasi sangat rendah. Meskipun demikian, sebagian besar guru menyatakan bahwa kemampuan literasi memiliki peranan penting bagi peserta didik. Selain itu, referensi berbahasa Indonesia yang digunakan untuk mendukung tercapainya literasi sangat terbatas. Agar siswa memiliki kemampuan literasi yang baik maka kemampuan ini harus diasah dan dilatih sejak dini. Salah satu cara paling efektif yang dapat dilakukan untuk melatih literasi siswa sejak dini yaitu melalui guru. Program yang ditawarkan dalam kegiatan pengabdian IbM ini adalah menyelenggarakan pelatihan dan pendampingan buku ajar literasi matematika dan bahasa untuk guru SD/MI. Tujuan jangka panjang dari kegiatan ini adalah menyebarluaskan literasi matematika dan bahasa, peningkatan pengetahuan dan kemampuan literasi guru dan siswa di sekolah dasar dan menengah serta tersedianya buku ajar literasi untuk siswa sekolah dasar dan menengah.
