Abstract

Motivation is the cornerstone of effective learning, and its cultivation begins in the elementary school years. This research delves into the relationship between rewards and students' learning motivation in elementary schools, offering valuable insights for educators, administrators, and policymakers. Employing a mixed-methods approach, the study combines quantitative surveys, qualitative interviews, and classroom observations to provide a comprehensive understanding of the dynamics at play. The research uncovers a significant positive correlation between the frequency of receiving rewards and students' academic performance, underlining the effectiveness of rewards as extrinsic motivators. However, the qualitative data reveals a more profound layer of motivation, with rewards serving as catalysts for the development of intrinsic motivation. Students describe rewards as initial sparks that gradually transition them from extrinsic to intrinsic motivation, fostering a genuine love for learning. Personalization emerges as a key factor in motivation, as tailoring rewards to individual students' interests and needs enhances long-term motivation. The positive classroom atmosphere observed in reward-rich environments contributes to engagement, enthusiasm, and overall motivation. The study provides practical implications for educators, administrators, and policymakers. It emphasizes the strategic use of rewards to motivate students, create a positive learning environment, and transition students towards intrinsic motivation. This research offers a bridge between theory and practice, empowering stakeholders to enhance the educational experience, ultimately guiding students to become lifelong learners with a passion for knowledge acquisition.

Abstract

The high divorce rate and domestic violence (KDRT) are indications of weak family resilience. The government has a policy of presenting the Family Quality Improvement Program which is one form of government effort to improve family resilience. This research aims to examine the use of policy tools used by DP3AP2KB of West Sumatra Province in the Family Quality Improvement Program to strengthen family resilience in Padang City. This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through interviews, observations, and documentation studies. The results of the research indicate that the most used policy tools in program implementation are laws and regulations and direct service provision, which are the main foundations in achieving program objectives. In addition, the use of transfer payments and intergovernmental grants was also found as a complement, while other policy tools such as outbound contracts out, tax systems, loans and loan guarantees, and insurance were not practically used. The research conclusions emphasize the importance of selecting and implementing policy tools appropriate to the social context, and show that informal and flexible approaches can still be effective in implementing social programs.
