THE IMPACT OF FULL-DAY SCHOOL IMPLEMENTATION ON ELEMENTARY SCHOOL STUDENTS’ LEARNING MOTIVATION

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of implementing the Full Day School system on students’ learning motivation at SDN 111 Palembang. The research employed a quantitative descriptive associative approach with a sample of 92 students, selected using the proportional random sampling technique. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using simple linear regression with SPSS version 26. The results showed that the implementation of Full Day School had a positive and significant effect on students’ learning motivation, with the regression equation Y = 24.128 + 0.586X, a t-value of 5.746 > t-table value of 1.986, and a significance level of 0.000 < 0.05. The R² value of 0.268 indicates that the Full Day School program contributes 26.8% to students’ learning motivation. It can be concluded that a well-planned implementation of the Full Day School system can enhance students’ motivation, particularly in aspects of discipline, responsibility, and enthusiasm for learning at school.
