AbstractExtant literature suggests that regular appraisal of teachers lead to progress in student learning achievement. However, the influence of teacher performance on achievement is not well documented hence the need for this study whose objectives were to (1) determine the relationship between teacher appraisal ratings and student learning achievement, (2) establish the relationship between student feedback ratings and learning achievement and (3) determine the influence of teacher performance on student learning achievement. Based on Locke’s goal-setting and Vrooms’ expectancy theories this study adopted explanatory sequential mixed methods design with population of 50,379 comprising 333 principals, 3,426 teachers and 46,620 students and a stratified sample of 397. Questionnaire reliability was .779 and .783 for teachers and students respectively. Quantitative research findings for the first and second objectives yielded Pearson’s Correlation Coefficient r (27) = -.008, p=.484 (performance appraisal ratings) and r (27) = -.085, p=.331 (student feedback ratings) showing that appraisal ratings and student feedback ratings were not significantly related to learning achievement since p-values obtained were more than the critical alpha (α) set at .05 level of significance. For the third objective, the regression analysis model constructed to test the influence of teacher performance on learning achievement yielded Persons’ R=.085 indicating a weak positive relationship between the two variables. The R-Squared (R²) computed yielded a value of .007, suggesting that teacher performance explained .7% of student learning achievement. Qualitative findings confirmed that performance appraisal contributed minimally to student achievement due to weaknesses of the appraisal policy, low teacher motivation, student characteristics, principal’s characteristics and home background factors. It is thus recommended that Teachers Service Commission should consider expanding performance appraisal for teachers in secondary schools. In addition, all stakeholders should participate in capacity building programmes to strengthen the performance management process. Finally, further research to develop a performance management model for schools is essential.

Motivation to learn is a person’s desire to take part in the learning process. Students are motivated to do an activity for their personal gain to achieve satisfaction from the lessons or the feeling that their needs are fulfilled. During the COVID-19 pandemic, students were forced to shift to learning online. The motivation to study online is related to the student’s achievement. Learning achievement is used as an indicator of the student’s competence in the teaching materials. High achievement can be reached by persistence in learning, which is formed through the learning motivation that will direct the student’s behaviour towards achieving maximum learning achievement. This study aims to determine the relationship between learning motivation and student achievement in Prosthetic Orthotic Major at the Health Polytechnic Surakarta. It employs a quantitative research method using a correlation research design. The study used the Google Form Online Questionnaire as an instrument for data collection. The sample included 447 students of the Prosthetic Orthotic Major at the Health Polytechnic Surakarta. The results of the normality test showed that the data were not normally distributed.

This study aims to dig deep information about the effect of positive and negative teacher expectations on the learning achievement of students in MI. The method used is a survey-associative quantitative research method. The population as well as the research sample was 20 people from the teacher for variable X and 30 students for variable Y. Data analysis was carried out by using multiple regression analysis techniques. From the data analysis conducted, several research findings indicate that positive expectations (X1) and negative expectations (X2) simultaneously do not have a significant effect on student achievement (Y). The strength of the relationship between Variable X1 (Teacher Positive Expectations) and X2 (Teacher Negative Expectations) simultaneously to Y (Student Learning Achievement) is 0.304 = 30.4% with the influence of variable X on Variable Y of 9.3% and 90, 7% is influenced by variables other than the expectation variable. The regression equation that can be formed from the results of data processing is as follows: Y '= 5.310 + 0.006X1 - 0.094X2. From the above equation it can be seen that the effect of positive expectations (X1) on student learning achievement (Y) is positive. This means that if teachers' positive expectations increase, the learning achievement of students will also increase. However, if the positive expectations of the teacher decrease, the learning achievement will also decrease. While the direction of the negative expectation variable (X2) on learning achievement (Y) is negative. That is, if negative expectations increase, learning achievement will decrease. But, on the contrary, if the teacher's negative expectations decrease, the learning achievement of students will increase
