<div> <div>The teachers that work Teaching Sciences are frequently confronted with some fundamental questions such as "How to promote interest in the scientific culture?" and "How to engage young students in the development of science and technology?".</div> <div> <div> <div><br>An effective way of motivating students to the fascination of discovery in these fields is through hands-on methodologies. This pedagogical tool is valid at any teaching level, from the youngest kindergarten children to older high-school level teenagers.<br><br>These hands-on methodologies are the learning experiences where the student is the lead and author of their own learning. Through activities where he himself has to plan, create and construct products or prototypes, using his creation and creativity skills to solve an everyday problem. These hands-on activities  are integrated experiences and promote an understanding of reality in a more complex way, positively changing the teaching/learning process.<br><br>In this project, high-school finalists were challenged to develop the "Science in Kindergarten" project. This project consisted of creating a children's story where the scenes would be illustrated with practical activities, based on experiments in Physics and Chemistry, instead of the traditional pictures/illustrations.

The Relationship

Lack of awareness of achievement is one of the problems that are often found in students today. At the high school or Islamic boarding school level students, the group that lacks an understanding of motivation is higher than in universities, solutions that can be done to reduce the prevalence of lack of motivation, one of which can be done with psychoeducation. Psychoeducation is an action given to individuals in a special way in overcoming psychosocial problems experienced by students. The knowledge that is grown through psychoeducation will be able to influence the beliefs of students who previously had less motivation in achievement awareness to become more enthusiastic so that it will bring up strong intentions or intentions to excel in realizing their goals. This study aims to determine the effect of psychoeducation about motivation on student achievement awareness in Islamic boarding schools, to determine the relationship between teacher efforts in motivating student learning and achievement awareness, especially in realizing their goals. The method used in this research is a motivational tutorial and a survey on the motivation of Islamic boarding school students. A sample of 75 students was selected using a combination of random and proportional techniques. Data collection was carried out using a questionnaire, namely using a Likert scale and using text inmultiple choice questions. Students were asked to fill out questionnaires which were distributed pre-test and post-test. Questions for learning interest questionnaires and questions for learning motivation. After beinganalyzed, it is found that the better the perception of the teacher's efforts in motivating student learning, the better the student's learning achievement. This research was conducted with a sample of class XI and X students at the At-Taqwa Islamic boarding school in Tangerang. Kurangnya kesadaran berprestasi merupakan salah satu masalah yang banyak dijumpai pada siswa saat ini. Pada pelajar tingkat SMA atau pesantren (studi kasus Pesantren At-Taqwa), kelompok yang kurang pemahaman tentang motifasi lebih tinggi dibandingkan perguruan tinggi, solusi yang dapat dilakukan untuk mengurangi angka prevalensi kurangnya motifasi, salah satunya dapat dilakukan dengan psikoedukasi. Psikoedukasi merupakan suatu tindakan yang diberikan kepada individu dengan cara khusus dalam mengatasi permasalahan psikososial yang dialami oleh siswa. Pengetahuan yang ditumbuhkan melalui psikoedukasi akan dapat mempengaruhi keyakinan siswa yang tadinya mempunyai motivasi yang kurang dalam kesadaran berprestasi menjadi lebih bersemangat sehingga akan memunculkan intensi atau niat yang kuat untuk berprestasi dalam mewujudkan cita-citanya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh psikoedukasi Tentang MotivasiTerhadap Kesadaran Berprestasi Siswa di Pesantren, mengetahui hubungan antara upaya guru dalam memotivasi belajar siswa terhadap kesadaran berprestasi, terutama dalam mewujudkan cita-cita mereka.
