Penerapan Konseling Akademik untuk Meningkatkan Motivasi Berprestasi Siswa SMA di Jakarta

Abstract

According to the head of SMA Negeri X, some students are experiencing problems related to low achievement motivation. However, they come from students with the best academic achievements in their junior high school. However, their achievement motivation decreased when they became students at SMA Negeri X. The implementation method uses a one-group pretest and posttest approach. Before participating in the activity, the participants filled out a questionnaire. Likewise, after the material delivery activity, the participants were asked to complete a questionnaire. The data analysis technique used the mean test for each PKM participant and compared the pretest and posttest. The results show a significant difference between the total pretest score (88.8: 36 = 2.46) and the total posttest score (92.2:36 = 2.56). The posttest score is higher than the pretest score (mean total pretest< mean total posttest). This means there was an increase in the pretest to posttest score of 0.1 (2.56 – 2.46 = 0.1). Thus, applying academic counseling can increase achievement motivation in SMA Negeri X Jakarta students.
