<![CDATA[This study aimed to analyze the relationship between teachers’ pedagogical competence and teaching motivation and the quality of learning at SD Negeri Baros 6 Cimahi. A quantitative approach with a correlational research design was employed. The research subjects consisted of all teachers at SD Negeri Baros 6 Cimahi, totaling 19 teachers, who were selected using a saturated sampling technique. Data were collected through questionnaires that had been tested for validity and reliability. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive statistics and Spearman’s rank correlation, with consideration of the results of prerequisite tests. The findings indicated that teachers’ pedagogical competence and teaching motivation were in the high category, as was the quality of learning. The correlation analysis revealed a strong and significant positive relationship between teachers’ pedagogical competence and the quality of learning, as well as a very strong and significant positive relationship between teaching motivation and the quality of learning. The multiple correlation analysis showed that pedagogical competence and teaching motivation simultaneously had a very strong relationship with the quality of learning and contributed substantially to explaining variations in learning quality. These results emphasize that the quality of learning is not determined solely by teachers’ pedagogical competence but is also strongly influenced by their teaching motivation. Therefore, efforts to improve learning quality should focus on strengthening pedagogical competence while simultaneously enhancing teachers’ teaching motivation through continuous professional development and sustained institutional support.]]>
