Abstract

Psychoeducation is the involvement of parents in children's education which can be done with mentoring, motivating and guiding in learning. This needs to be done because parents have an important role in shaping children's character in the family environment. However, the role of parents has not been done much by parents. In general, parents of students completely hand over their children's education to teachers in their respective schools. In addition, parents have the assumption that child development in education is the responsibility of teachers at school, not the responsibility of parents. Based on this phenomenon, it is necessary to carry out psychoeducational activities for parents on the importance of learning motivation for children. The method of the activity is carried out through three stages, namely preparation, implementation and evaluation of activities. The result of this activity is an increase in knowledge about the importance of psychoeducation in children's learning. In addition, the improvement of parents' skills in guiding, motivating and accompanying children while studying at home. Practically, parental involvement in children's education can increase achievement, increase motivation in learning and create an atmosphere of affection and parental attention to children.
