Abstract

This research studies the differences of males’ and females’ motivation and interest in learning English on 109 first-year students of one Islamic secondary school in Sidoarjo, East Java. It concentrates on four core points, there are intrinsic motivation, extrinsic motivation, individual and situational interest. By utilizing a descriptive quantitative approach with a descriptive statistical analysis, the findings reveal that the level of motivation of both groups of students is moderate to high average scores 3.4-4.2 on 5-point Likert scale. Females slightly outperformed males in intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, while males scored higher in personal and situational interest. This is consistent with Goal Orientation Theory, which clarifies that student learning motivation differs based on their learning goals (mastery vs. performance), as well as Expectancy-Value Theory, which states that engagement is shaped by the perceived value of English learning and expectations of success. The study recommends learning strategies that balance affective and instrumental aspects, as well as further studies using inferential analysis and longitudinal designs.

Abstract

This study investigates how students view the use of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) in learning English, especially when taught by teachers who have followed training. PBL is considered a student centered learning method that can increase motivation, cooperation, and critical thinking skills. But, the success of this method depends not only on the teacher's ability but also on how students experience and view PBL in practice. The purpose of this study is to describe students' views on PBL in English classes and to identify the aspects that are considered positive and negative. This study used a quantitative descriptive method involving 111 students from three high school classes. Data were obtained through a questionnaire consisting of 20 questions, divided into three indicators: student interest, teacher guidance quality, and the impact of training. To analyze the data, descriptive statistical methods were used to calculate the average value of each indicator. Based on the results of the study, it shows that in general students like PBL. The average score ranges from 3.18 to 3.97. The highest aspect is teacher professional development, while the lowest aspect is student preference for PBL. These results indicate that although PBL is effective in increasing participation, critical thinking skills, and teaching quality, there is an additional need to improve students' confidence in communicating and make them more fond of this method. In conclusion, this study emphasizes the importance of teacher training and qualifications in the successful implementation of PBL.
