Internal factor consists of expectation, attention, and joyfulness in learning. External factor consists of family background, society background, and school environment. Even though external factor has also contributed to students? learning motivation, it was found that internal factor has more significant effect on students? learning motivation. This was proven by the low-level motivation which was caused by the lack of expectation, attention in studying Chinese language as well as the lack of joyfulness in learning.
