Abstract

Learning motivation is an important factor in improving the quality of student learning. Therefore, this study aims to identify the learning motivation profile of grade XI science students in MA Alliful Ikhwan SAA. By knowing the learning motivation profile of biology students, efforts can be made to improve student learning motivation and the quality of biology learning at school. This research used a descriptive method with a quantitative approach. The research sample consisted of 72 students and 1 teacher in grade XI IPA 1, XI IPA 2, and XI IPA 3 at MA Alliful Ikhwan SAA. The instrument used was a learning motivation questionnaire that had been adapted from existing instruments. The data obtained were analyzed using descriptive statistical techniques.
