them doesnt like, so they will try to stalling off their feeling that something they
doesnt like.1
In choosing department, there are still many students who cant make an
appropriate plan. There are some students that cant make the appropriate plan for
their future education and career. Their decision about future education and career
basically drives from their temporary desire or wish without considering their
talents, interest and ability. Beside that, sometimes the parents force their children
to choose department because they think what their children have chosen will
bring them into success. However, it is important to give the student some
direction and guidance about prospect and chances of each department so that they
understand which department is the best to choose.
Based on the statement above, Thornbugh in Prayitno there are two types
motivation, which may lead to achieve a success, they are extrinsic and instrinsic
motivation. Extrinsic motivation is something influencing so that someone can do
activity based on extrinsic stimulus and not come from him. Whereas, instrinsic
motivation is the motivation occurs inside someones self. This research entitled
the correlation between students motivation in choosing English Study Program
and their learning achievements in second grade at IAIN STS Jambi in Academic
Year 2011/2012 because of students in choosing English study program can be
supported and affected by some factors namely instrinsic and extrinsic motivation
to achieve and success in future next vocational education or their career.
It can be concluded from the quotation above that student who passes a
lack motivation toward a particular lesson will result in the lack of their success in
that lesson. Consequently, it brings an impact to their achievement toward that
lesson. The students who choose their department usually have a good talent and
high motivation because their choice is something that they very expect so that
will try to get a good achievement.
The research would like to verify whether students of IAIN STS Jambi
have intrinsic and extrinsic motivaton in choosing English Study Program. In
addition, the researcher would like to see if there is any significance the
correlation between students motivation in choosing English study program and
their learning achievements.

CHAPTER II
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
This part will discuss the following matters : The definition of motivation,
factors of motivation, types of motivation, characteristic of motivation,
measurement of motivation, definition of learning achievement, and factors
influencing in learning result.
A. Conceptual Definition1. The Definition of Motivation
Motivation is an internal process that activates, guides, and maintains
behavior over something.2
This process is better explained by ball that
Motivation is a way of explaining how people aroused by an event, how they
sustain that behavior for given lengths of time. Motivation can decipherable as a
power activator for being active.3
Some researchers also stated that motivation is usually defined as an
internal stated that arouses, directs, and maintains behavior. Psychologist studying
motivation has focused on three basic questions. The first question concerns about
the original causes to a person to initiate some action. The second is about the
causes to a person to move toward a particular goal. The last is about the causes to
a person to persist in attempts to reach that goal. Meanwhile, other researcher
defines that motivation is a force that results from an individuals desire to satisfy
their needs such as hunger, thirst, and social approval. Therefore, it can be
concluded that the functions of motivation are to push people to act, to determine
ad direct the action and to selects our action. Motivation has traditionally been
characterised as an individual difference (ID) variable that is implicated in
learning success, alongside other ID variables such as aptitude, personality,
anxiety or cognitive style (for a recent overview of ID research in second
language acquisition.4
In the language education field too, motivation in relation
to concepts of self and identity, particularly in terms of ones aspirations towards

certain kinds of linguistic or cultural identity, or towards valued personal or
professional identities that are defined. Human motivation to learn is a complex
phenomenon involving a number of diverse sources and conditions. Some of the
motivational sources are situation-specific, that is, they are rooted in the students
immediate learning environment, whereas others appear to be more stable and
generalized, stemming from a succession of the students past experiences in the
social world. Motivation is also a changing phenomenon, it can grow or decrease
and it can differ depending on the school or social experiences.
Motivation is basic impulse that drives a person to behave. This was the
impetus that drives a person to do something according to the impulse inside of
human. therefore, the act of a person based upon specific motivations contain a
theme in accordance with the motivation that is based upon the underlying
motivation.5
Motivation someone can be develop through many complex interaction
from environment factors with factors inside of someone.6
Motivation is defined as "some kind of internal drive which pushes someone
to do things in order to achieve something". As stated by Brown in his book,
motivation is a term that is used to define the success or the failure of any complex
task. He deal with three matters while discussing motivation:
what energizes human behavior, what directs or channels such behavior and how this behavior is maintained or sustained.
Motivation is thought to be responsible for "why people decide to do
something, how long they are willing to sustain the activity and how hard they are
going to pursue it".
Ryan and Deci in their book state that "to be motivated means to be moved to
do something". Unlike unmotivated people who have lost impetus and inspiration to
act, motivated people are energized and activated to the end of a task. "Interest,

curiosity, or a desire to achieve" are the key factors that compose motivated people.
However, they believe that arousing interest is not enough to be motivated. This
interest should be sustained. In addition to this, time and energy should be invested
and the effect which is required needs to be sustained so as to reach the aim., they also
said that motivation can be characterized as follows:
needs or expectations, behavior, goals, and some form of feedback.
There are three important element in motivation:
1) The act or process of providing with something (as a need or desire)that causes a person to act.
2) The condition of being impelled by something (as a need or desire) thatcauses a person to act.
3) A force, stimulus, or influence (as an incentive or drive) that causes aperson to act.
7
2. Factors Increasing the Motivation in LearningThere are six factors influencing the motivation in learning, they are :
1) Attitude is the combination between information concept andemotion which causes the individual tendency to feel happy or
unhappy about people, idea, group or certain event.
2) Need is lack of condition which encourages an individual to dosomething to achieve the goal.
3) Stimulus is any change in perception or experience with theenvironment which causes the individual to be active.
4) Emotion refers to individual experience during the learning processbecause someones emotion involvement is important to maintain
the learning motivation.
5) Ability refers to the individuals ability to respond as a learningresult.

6) Reinforcement is any activity which maintains and improves thepossibility to respond more..
3. Types of Motivationa) Intrinsic Motivation
Intrinsic motivation is a stable interest in participating in such broad
categories of activities that is specifically belongs to an individual as a
personality character . According Maslow, human being has two types
of needs, deficiency needs such as physiogical, safety, love and
esteem; and growth needs such as need to know and understand
aesthetic needs and self-actualization needs. Maslow says that people
need to satisfy the lower need first. Thus, based on maslows theory of
needs, the fulfillment of the deficiency and growth needs becomes the
motivation of a certain actions.

Maslows Need Hierarchy Theory8
Maslow developed a hierarchy oof seven basic human needs.
Physiological needs include nourishment, sleep, and shelter. Safety
needs consist of freedom from danger, anxiety, and threat. The third
need is Love from parents, teacher and peers. Esteem needs consist of
confidence and mastery of goals. The need for knowledge and
understanding includes curiosity, exploration, and the desire to obtain
knowledge. Aesthetic needs include the search for beauty. The
seventh need, self-actualization, or self fulfillment consists of humans
developing and maintaining capacities that serve to enhance
themselves or a persons ability to develop full potential.
He gives opinion that the intrinsic motivation is the drive to act that
comes within ones soul. It means that the internal motivation is subtle

and invisible. It may be seen after the achievement of the objective. It
also may indicate by the individuals satisfaction after completing the
activity.
In choosing English department of the intrinsic motivation occurs
inside without influenced from surroundings such as :
1) Dreams want to be language teacher2) Have a skill in speaking other language3) Have a good achievement4) High study activity
b) Extrinsic MotivationAccording to behavioral learning theory, motivation is closely linked
to principle that behaviors have been reinforced in the past are more
likely to be repeated than are behaviors that have not been reinforced
or that have been punished. The motivation that derives from
reinforcement and punishment than recognized as extrinsic motivation.
There are two types of reinforcement in extrinsic motivation, primary
and secondary reinforces. The primary reinforces satisfy psychological
needs such as food and water, meanwhile the secondary reinforces
satisfy psychological needs such as praise, grades and money.
Extrinsic factors influenced student in choosing English Department is:
1) Following up friend2) Get support from parents3) Wanting the gift4) Teachers information
Extrinsic motivation is the thing which occurs because there is
extrinsic stimulus. The activity started and is done because there is an
indirect motivation related to the activity. Extrinsic motivation is
something influencing so that someone can do activity based on
extrinsic stimulus and not come from him. Whereas, intrinsic
motivation is the motivation occurs inside someones self. The activity
started and is done because of the direct motivation with the activity.
Tis motivation is a wish occurs from someones wish without being
influenced by extrinsic things.

4. Characteristic of MotivationMotivation is the condition of physiological and psychological which
contained inside someone that can led to have some activities in achieving
their own needs or their purpose.The motivation in individual has always
characteristics. The characteristics are :
1) Presevering in facing the difficulties2) Diligent in assignment or be able to work in long duration until the
work is finished
3) Showing interest in various problems4) Showing a tendency to work alone5) Showing a tendency into creative activity6) Be able to defend the opinion7) Not easily turn down something true based on the opinion8) Be able to solve the problem in learning process.If a student has these characteristics it means that she or he is a
motivated student. These characteristics will help the students to make
them achieving their objective in learning.9
5. The Measurement of MotivationIn exploring motivation, an important thing to comprehend is its
measurement and the way to measure it. As motivation is an internal
process within human being than Likert scale is considered approtiate to
measure motivation. Likert scale is one of the attitude scales that
determine what an individual believes, perceives, or feels about self,
others, activities, institutions, or situations.
There are two types of statements endorsed in Likert scales, the
positive statement towards the object of interest and the negative statement
towards the object of interest. For each endorsed statement, whether it is
positive or negative statement towards the object of the interest, five
responses are assigned. The contained five response options ranging from
strongly agrre, agree, undecided, disagree to strongly disagree and each

11
option represented by numbers. However, the assignment of the numbers
depends on the position of the statement towards the object of interest. The
positive statement will be represented by 5,4,3,2,1 meanwhile the neative
statement will be presented by 1,2,3,4,5.
6. Definition of Learning achievementLearning achievement is the results that have been reached by
learns after following the subjects, it can be measures based on the result
or score of test. Learning achievement usually is stated by scoring, the
learners who et low achievement, have low scores. So it can be
summarized that learning achievement is the learning result which have
been gotten by the learner that is stated by suitable value with the learners
effort.
William Burton said that a good learning situation consist of a rich
and varied series of learning ecperiences unified around a vigurous
purpose and carried on in interaction with a rich and profocative
environtment.10
In the teaching learning activity, someone is learning achievement
depends on his or her ability including talent, interest, and intelligence. A
high ability students tends to achieve a high score and vice versa.
7. Factors influencing in learning resultAs we know that learning is a complete process of behavior
change. Someone studying should pay attention to some factors
influencing learning result, both directly and indirectly. Factors
influencing learning result of the students could be divided into two kinds,
which are internal and external factor.
In internal factor, suryabrata categories it into physiological and
psychological factors. Physiological factor is divided into two kinds,
physical condition and certain physical functions condition. In general,
physical condition can support the learning activity. An optimum physical

condition will have different influence compared to the weak and tired
one. At the other hand, of certain physical functions condition, it includes
the function of five senses. Five senses are the requirement of a good
learning.
Psychological factor for an individual or a student must have a
mental preparation to face the assignments. This includes intelligence,
attention, interest, talent, and motivation. A stabil mental condition such as
being restless, insecure, and afraid and so forth has a big impact on
soomeones learning condition. That is why someone should pay attention
to the mental stability to face the lesson.
Meanwhile in external factor, includes environmental factor and
instrumental factor. Environmental factor can be divided into two kinds
that are natural and social environments. Natural environment such as
temperature and humidity have the effect on the learning process and
result. In Indonesia people tend to argue that learning in the morning will
ive better result than learning in the afternoon. Social environment
including human and his or her representative and other forms has a direct
effect on the learning process and result. Someone who is solving a
question will be disturbed if there is another one who comes or speaks
loudly from where she or he studies. Human representation such as
picture, writing, record, and voice have influence too. In many ways, the
influence is less advantageous for other social environments such as the
sound of factory machine and traffic crowd.
Besides those two factors, there is another factor which is called
instrumental factor. The application of this factor is planned based on the
expected learning result. These factors are hoped to function as a means to
achieve the designed learning purpose. This includes learning equipments,
building, and practical tools.

B. Operational Definiton
Based on the theory above, the researcher make conclusion that
motivation can strung out a change energy in students, then they do
something. The researcher reviewed studies that have specified the social
contextual conditions that support intrinsic motivation and facilitate
internalization and integration of extrinsically motivated tasks. The studies
have been interpreted in terms of the basic psychological needs. That is,
researcher saw that social contextual conditions that support ones feelings of
competence, autonomy, and relatedness are the basis for one maintaining
intrinsic motivation and becoming more self-determined with respect to
extrinsic motivation. Researcher pointed out that in schools, the facilitation of
more self-determined learning requires classroom conditions that allow
satisfaction of these three basic human needsthat is that support the innate
needs to feel connected, effective, and agentic as one is exposed to new ideas
and exercises new skills.

METHODOLOGY OF THE RESEARCH
A. Research designThe design of this research is descriptive. The descriptive study
involves collecting data in order to answer statement concerning of the
study. Based on the formulation of research problem, this study is
concerning about the correlation. Correlation is an instrument statistics, it
can be used to compare the result of the measurement of two different
variables in order to define correlation level between variables. Related to
this theory, the research was aimed at finding the correlation between
students motivation in choosing English study program and their learning
achievement of the second grade at IAIN STS Jambi in academic year
2011/2012.
The scheme of the correlation between students motivation in choosing
English study program and their learning achievement at IAIN STSJambi academic years 2011/2012.
The scheme of the intrinsic students motivation in choosing English
study program at IAIN STS Jambi academic years 2011/2012.
The scheme of the extrinsic students motivation in choosing English
study program at IAIN STS Jambi in academic years 2011/2012.

2) SampleThe population sampling is used in this research. Population sample is the
whole population is used as sample if the total number is equivalent or
under 100 person. Therefore, the sample is three parallel classes of the
second semester students in the English Department. The total number of
the sample is 99 students.
D. Method of Data CollectionThere are two instruments used to collect the data in this research i.e
Questionnaire and students achievement.
1) QuestionnaireQuestionnaire is a number of written questions used to get
information from respondent or report about her or himself. The research
used Questionnaire to get the data about students motivation in choosing
Language study program. The researcher distributed the questionnaire to
the respondent to fullfil by them. The students were given a clear
explanation the way to choose questionnaires. The researcher controlled
the respondent when the respondent fills. The questionnaire should be
answered based on the opinion.
The researcher used Likert scale. Explain that Likert scale consist
of a series of statement all of which are related to a persons attitude
toward a single object. In which there are five options of answer to each
item in the questionnaire and each option has a score. For the positive
statement, the assigned numbers are: Strongly agree equivalent to five (5),
agree equivalent to four (4), not sure equivalent to three (3), disagree
equivalent to two (2), and strongly disagree equivalent to one (1).
Meanwhile for the native statements numbers are reserved.

research is Writing I, Reading II, Speaking II, Listening II, Structure II
scores. According to sugiyono documentation is derived from word
document that means written things. In this research, the method of
documentation is used to get the data about students study achievement.
The documentation are obtained from the academic Computer under the
permission of the Assistant to the office.
E. Method of Analyzing the DataIn this part, the researcher analyzes the dataquestionnaire and then
try to correlate between students motivation in choosing English study
program and learning achievement.
Data from questionnaireAfter the data have been collected, the researcher will analyze and score
them then make te conclusion. The scores will be gotten from the result of
each item score in each statement. The researcher will give scores to each
alternative chosen by students in each item of statement in the
questionnaire about choosing English Department.
To account the second semester of English Department students
motivation level in choosing English study program, the following steps
are taken :
