Abstract

This study aims to describe (1) the learning motivation of students in classes using Differentiated Learning in the Discovery Learning Model, (2) the learning motivation in classes using the Discovery Learning Model, and (3) analyze the effect of differentiated learning in the Discovery Learning Model on the learning motivation of class XI students at SMAN 2 Bantaeng. This study used a quasi-experimental design with a quantitative approach and a Posttest Only Control Design. The study population consisted of two classes (64 students) selected through random sampling. Data were analyzed using Excel and IBM SPSS Statistics applications. The results showed that the learning motivation in the experimental class was in the very high category, while the control class was in the moderate category, and there was a significant effect of differentiated learning on students' learning motivation.
