Abstract

This study aims to determine the application of the Student Center Learning (SCL) learning model, describe the level of student learning motivation, and analyze the effect of the Student Center Learning model on student learning motivation. This study uses a quantitative approach with an ex post facto research type. The study population was 346 eighth grade students, while the sample was 63 students determined using the Slovin formula with a proportional random sampling technique. Data collection was carried out through questionnaires and documentation. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical analysis including classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression, t-tests, F-tests, and coefficients of determination (R²) with the help of the SPSS program. The results showed that the application of the Student Center Learning model was in the moderate category, with a percentage of Small Group Discussion of 65.07%, Role Playing of 63.49%, and Discovery Learning of 73.01%. Student learning motivation was also in the moderate category. The results of the simultaneous test show that the Student Center Learning model has a positive and significant effect on student learning motivation, indicated by the F count value of 28.464 which is greater than the F table of 2.266 with a significance value of 0.000 <0.05. The results of the partial test also show that Small Group Discussion (t count = 6.294; sig. = 0.000), Role Playing (t count = 6.250; sig. = 0.000), and Discovery Learning (t count = 3.263; sig. = 0.002) each have a positive and significant effect on learning motivation. The coefficient of determination (R²) value of 0.591 indicates that the Student Center Learning model is able to explain 59.1% of the variation in student learning motivation, while 40.9% is influenced by other factors outside the study. Thus, it can be concluded that the application of the Student Center Learning model has a positive and significant influence on students' learning motivation in the subject of Islamic Religious Education for class VIII at SMP Negeri 30 Makassar City.
