Teachers have a very
important role because it is a facilitator of education and teaching in the
school so it can determine the success of students. In Social Science subjects
taught material that covers most of the cognitive and affective aspects of the course.
So that students are required to be able to remember even memorize what the
teacher described or memorize what is in the book. Therefore, it takes a
professional teacher. Because of the learning process in the classroom is a
series of experiences that students experience, the students will make sense of
this experience through the process of perception and perceptual outcomes
affect subsequent mental activity. Perceptions of students in this case is the
perception of teacher competence as a teacher in the classroom. In order for a
teacher's competence is good, then a teacher role also requires students to
provide assessment, feedback and correction of teacher competence.
The study was conducted in elementary schools in Gugus IV Palengaan District of Pamekasan to determine (1) the influence of Student Perceptions to teachers competence to achievement of Social Sciences, (2) the influence of motivation on learning achievement of students of Social Sciences, (3) the influence students' perceptions of teachers competence and motivation for student achievement.
The study was conducted in elementary schools in Gugus IV Palengaan District of Pamekasan to determine (1) the influence of Student Perceptions to teachers competence to achievement of Social Sciences, (2) the influence of motivation on learning achievement of students of Social Sciences, (3) the influence students' perceptions of teachers competence and motivation for student achievement.
The population in this research
were students of class V in gugus IV
Elementary School Palengaan District of Pamekasan
totaling 150 students of each grade in each school is different student numbers.
Samples taken in this research are 45 students drawn randomly with random
sampling technique. The instrument used in this research was a questionnaire
and documentation. Questionnaire completed by the student and documentation
obtained from the result of odd Semester Examination year 2012/2013.
The data analysis
technique used in this research is Multi-Linear Regression computerized SPSS
18.00 program for windows. The results of the analysis can be seen that
perceptions of the student teacher's competence (X1) has thitung = -0.886 and
ttabel = 2.021. So thitung< ttable or significance t = 0.000 on student
achievement fifth grade Social Studies subjects. Variable X2 has thitung = 0.777
and ttabel = 2.021. So thitung<
ttable or significance of t = 5%. Variables X1 and X2 has tcount 0.551 with
TTable = 3.23. So thitung< ttable or significance 5%.
From
these results it
can be concluded that 1) there
was no significant effect on
students' perception of teacher competence on learning achievement
of Social Sciences, 2) there is no significant
effect on learning achievement motivation
Social Sciences, and
3) no significant effect students' perceptions of teacher competence and motivation toward achievement of
Social Sciences of class V in gugus IV
Elementary School Palengaan District of Pamekasan.
The results were not
significant in this study is most
likely due to sampling error and error analysis techniques.
Advice can be given are
(1) the teacher should always strive to maintain and improve their competence
so that students have a positive perception of him. Thus, students will be
motivated to study Social Sciences, so that the goal can be achieved with
optimal learning, (2) students are expected to always improve learning
motivation as having high motivation to learn will affect his achievements in
learning. Since motivation has a very important role in improving student
achievement, (3) for other researchers who will conduct similar research is
recommended to add a variable to be studied so that it can reveal more problems
and provide results of research findings more meaningful and more useful for
many parties.
