Abstract
Intrinsic motivation is known as the most influential motivation compared to
other types of motivation, because intrinsic motivation comes from within a
person without any external intervention, so that activities carried out with
intrinsic motivation will be carried out continuously with feelings of pleasure
and deep focus. when doing it. If it is associated with the context of the world
of education, it is very important for students to have intrinsic motivation
when learning. Based on previous research, it was found that students who
are intrinsically motivated have good academic achievements compared to
students who do not have intrinsic motivation. Seeing the importance of the
role of intrinsic motivation, this study wanted to examine variables that have
a connection with the world of education on the emergence of intrinsic
motivation. This study uses quantitative methods and uses an online
questionnaire in collecting data. The sample in this study were students who
were in Labuhanbatu district, North Sumatra. The selected sample criteria
were students who underwent online learning methods during the COVID-19
pandemic. Researchers set the sample criteria because the transition from
offline to online learning systems certainly disrupts student engagement with
offline learning systems, so it is necessary to restore student engagement in
post-covid-19 offline learning.
