Learning motivation plays a crucial role in supporting the effectiveness of classroom learning, particularly in increasing student engagement, encouraging active participation in the learning process, and optimizing learning outcomes. This study aimed to improve the low mathematics learning motivation of eleventh-grade students of ULP 2 at SMK N 4 Yogyakarta through the implementation of the Teams Games Tournament (TGT) cooperative model. This study employed a Classroom Action Research (CAR) approach, which was conducted in two cycles. Each cycle consisted of planning, action implementation, observation, and reflection stages.
