ABSTRACT

Davis, J., Putong, SB., Dimabayao, P., Peralta, MJ., & Han Juyeon. (2021). Role

of Motivation in an Online Learning Class among selected students.

This study examined the factors that affect students’ learning motivation in

an online class of Third Year Education students of José Rizal University. Using

descriptive – causal study, the variables included in question number one, in

particular, the scale variable like socio-economic status, and personality is meant

to be tested for association on question number three.

The study revealed a non-significant association in the variable motivation

of learning. It has also proven that socio-economic status has a significant

association to the learning motivation of respondents.

The Chi-square test results revealed a non – significant association if

respondents are grouped according to personality vis-a-vis students’ motivation.

This means that whether the students are introvert or extrovert, their personality

has nothing to do with students’ motivation in online learning. However, there is a

significant association if respondents are grouped according to socio-economic

status vis-a-vis students’ motivation. This means that students’ learning

motivation in an online learning is affected by their socio-economic status.

From the data collected, the research was able to create an action plan in

the form of a strategy map that may help the students and the teachers and

future researchers to be able to address the student’s motivation in online class.
