Chi Square Analysis

This research examined longitudinal trajectories of Korean students’ motivation to learn science using group-based trajectory modeling (GBTM). The changes in five motivational constructs were focused in this research: self-efficacy, intrinsic motivation, grade motivation, self-determination, and career motivation. In addition, the relationship between academic track of students and each trajectory group was examined. Using Science Motivation Questionnaire II, data from 255 male high school students were collected during five semesters. Longitudinal data were analyzed by GBTM.. Chi-square analysis was also conducted to examine the relationships between academic track and each trajectory. As a result, it was found that students shared the same trajectory patterns in self-efficacy. Otherwise, two distinct trajectory groups (‘high’ and ‘low’) were found in each four constructs. There were significant correlations between academic track and trajectory groups. The findings of this research suggest that Korean science educators need to consider individual student’s longitudinal trajectory of motivation to provide better science teaching and learning. Keywords: academic track, group based trajectory modeling, high school, longitudinal study, science learning motivation.

Need For Power

ABSTRACT   Parents are the most influential figure in the life of every child. Parental involvement in the learning process can also affect the process of life is huge in children. In addition, the teachers and the learning environment in schools can also influence the motivation to learn so that students can master the student's mastery of concepts in science lessons in schools, especially physics known as a difficult subject among junior high school students. Therefore teachers and learning environments should be supportive atmosphere so that students more motivated to follow the lessons of Natural Sciences. The purpose of this study was to determine the increase in student motivation by using STEM-based science learning. This study uses a quantitative research with the participation of as many as 28 students of class VIII-5 on one of the Junior High School in Bandung. The instrument used in this study was a questionnaire on aspects of learning motivation Need for Achievement, Need for Power aspects, and aspects of the Need for Affiliation. The results showed that the students' motivation to learn the most improved there on aspects Need for Power showed an increase by a margin of 3.53 and an average pretest and posttest of 0.89. It can be concluded that the application of STEM-based science learning can increase students' motivation. Solutions to increase learning motivation towards science subjects can use based learning Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM).  Keywords: Motivation; STEM.

The Impact

AbstractWith the increasing shift from STEM to STEAM education, arts-based approaches to science teaching and learning are considered promising for aligning school science curricula with the development of twenty-first century skills, including creativity. Yet the impact of STEAM practices on student creativity and specifically on how the latter is associated with science learning outcomes have thus far received scarce empirical support. This paper contributes to this line of research by reporting on a two-wave quantitative study that examines the effect of a long-term STEAM intervention on two cognitive processes associated with creativity (act, flow) and their interrelationships with intrinsic and extrinsic components of science motivation. Using pre- and post-survey data from 175 high-school students in Italy, results show an overall positive effect of the intervention both on the act subscale of creativity and science career motivation, whereas a negative effect is found on self-efficacy. Gender differences in the above effects are also observed. Further, results provide support for the mediating role of self-efficacy in the relationship between creativity and science career motivation. Implications for the design of STEAM learning environments are discussed.

Creative Products

This study aims to: 1) obtain an overview of the importance, self-efficacy, interest in entrepreneurship on the motivation to learn creative products in vocational high school students in Magelang; 2) determine the effect of parenting, self-efficacy, interest in entrepreneurship both individually and jointly on the motivation of entrepreneurial learning and creative products of vocational high school students in Magelang . This research is an ex-post facto research. The study population was all students of vocational High School class XII Culinary Management in Magelang. The sampling technique uses proportional random sampling. The data analysis techniques used descriptive analysis, simple linear analysis and multiple regression analysis. The results of the study are as follows: 1) Student's importance (mean 105.59); student self efficacy (mean 46.51); student entrepreneurial interest (mean 51.00) and student motivation to learn are very high (mean 52.12). 2) there are influences of parenting, self efficacy, interest in entrepreneurship on entrepreneurial learning motivation and creative products both individually and together. Effective contribution of the three independent variables together to the dependent variable is 41.58%.Keywords: Parenting, Self-Efficacy, Entrepreneurial Interest, Learning Motivation
