Motivation of Physics Student in Learning with Experiment Toolkit of Mechanics Wave

Abstract

Experiment important in Physics learning, it provide benefits for student learning outcomes. The aim of the research is to know the change of student motivation in learning physics at subject vibration and wave with experiment toolkit of wave mechanics. Subject of this research is student at class VIII-1 SMP Muhammadiyah, Kuok. The instrument used are device learning and experiment toolkit of mechanics wave. Research data instrument is motivation questionnaire ARCS (attention, relevance,confidence and satisfaction) model design by keller and motivation observation sheet. Data were analized using descriptive analysis techniques and analysis Sign test. The increase of average motivation this research is 27,72%. It is concluded that the experiment toolkit of mechanics wave is effective to improve motivation student in learning physics at subjects Vibration and Wave.
