Pengaruh Penggunaan Media Canva Terhadap Motivasi, Kreativitas Dan Hasil Belajar Pendidikan Agama Hindu Di SMPN 8 Palangka Raya

Abstract

The ideal student in the Merdeka Belajar Curriculum is one who is active in the learning process, where learning is centered on the student and no longer on the teacher. However, observations show that students have not been able to fully adapt to the changes in the Merdeka Belajar Curriculum, as evidenced by their boredom and passive attitude in the learning process. This has an impact on their ability to understand the material thoroughly. The solution is an innovative and interactive learning approach through the Canva learning media. This study aims to determine how the use of Canva media can increase student motivation, creativity, and learning outcomes in Hinduism subjects at SMPN 8 Palangka Raya. Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory and constructivism theory form the basis of this study. The method used is a pre-experimental group design with a pre-test and post-test model to measure the motivation, creativity, and learning outcomes of eighth-grade students at SMPN 8 Palangka Raya. The test instrument is a questionnaire measured using a Likert scale to measure student motivation and creativity, while the test consists of questions to measure student learning outcomes. The results of this study are as follows: 1) The learning motivation of Hindu students in grade VIII at SMPN 8 Palangka Raya was 73.7%, which is classified as high motivation. 2) The students' creativity level reached 76%, which falls into the high creativity category. 3) The average N-Gain Score achieved by students was 0.65, which falls into the moderate N-Gain category, with 5 students falling into the high N-Gain category (55.5%), while 4 students fell into the moderate N-Gain category (44.4%). Conclusion: There is an effect of using Canva learning media on students' creativity, motivation, and learning outcomes in Hindu Religious Education at SMPN 8 Palangka Raya.
