Design/Methodology/Approach - This study uses an explanatory quantitative method with a sample of 100 students selected through purposive sampling techniques. The research instrument was in the form of a Likert scale questionnaire which was tested for validity and reliability, while data analysis was carried out by simple linear regression using SPSS. Findings - The results showed that curriculum changes had a positive and significant effect on students' learning motivation, with a regression coefficient value of 0.396, a t-value of 5.005, and a significance of 0.000 (<0.05). A determination value (R²) of 0.204 indicates that 20.4% of the variation in learning motivation is influenced by curriculum changes, while the rest by other factors. These results confirm that the implementation of a curriculum that is relevant, contextual, and supported by teacher competence is able to increase students' motivation to learn.]. Originality/Value - This research reinforces the theory of Educational Change Fullan and the ARCS Keller motivational model that educational reform is effective when it involves systemic, psychological, and pedagogical changes.]]>
