Abstract

Student learning motivation is an important factor to produce high-quality graduates. It can grow from the inside of themselves (intrinsic) or it occurs because of from outside the students (extrinsic). This study was aimed to reveal both students’ intrinsic and extrinsic factors toward their motivation in online learning during the Covid-19 Pandemic era. The sudden transformation from offline learning to online one in Sriwijaya State Polytechnic, presents internal and external motivation factors of the students. Using random sampling, there were 922 students participated in a survey questionnaire. The collected data were analysed using Self-Determination Theory of Deci and Ryan (1985). It was revealed that the intrinsic factors (interest, enjoyment, satisfaction) influence the student learning motivation toward their online learning by 81.2%, 74.6% and 92.5%. Only the intrinsic factor of encouragement is lower than the counterparts (44%). While the influences of extrinsic factors on student learning motivation toward their online learning are classified good; identified regulation (79.85), integrated regulation (77.2%), introjected regulation (73.1%), and external regulation (72.8). Related to amotivation factors, students had no serious amotivation factors in their online learning during the Covid-19 pandemic era. The motivations in online learning are positively correlated with students’ curiosities to learn new knowledge and enjoy new learning experiences (intrinsic motivation) and are influenced by regulation and environmental condition (extrinsic motivation).
