Abstract

Kajian ini adalah bertujuan untuk mengenal pasti persekitaran pembelajaran pelajar berdasarkan faktor demografi (jantina, umur, kaum dan aliran) dan pencapaian akademik pelajar Tingkatan Enam. Kajian ini turut mengkaji tahap persekitaran pembelajaran dari segi kemudahan fasiliti, persekitaran bilik darjah dan pengajaran guru dan hubungan antara persekitaran pembelajaran dengan pencapaian akademik pelajar Tingkatan Enam SMK Labuan, Wilayah Persekutuan Labuan, Malaysia. Dalam kajian ini, seramai 110 orang pelajar telah dipilih melalui persampelan rawak berstrata (stratified random sampling) bagi mewakili populasi iaitu 153 orang pelajar sebagai responden kajian. Sekolah yang dikaji adalah di SMK Labuan di Wilayah Persekutuan Labuan. Data yang diperolehi adalah menggunakan perisian Statistical Package for the Social Science (SPSS) versi 26.0. Data dianalisis menggunakan statistik deskriptif (min, kekerapan dan peratus) dan statistik inferensi (Ujian-t, Ujian ANOVA dan Korelasi). Darjah kebolehpercayaan (Cronbach Alpha) bagi keseluruhan persekitaran pembelajaran adalah .929 manakala pencapaian akademik adalah .880. Hasil dapatan kajian menunjukkan secara keseluruhannya tahap persekitaran pembelajaran dan tahap pencapaian akademik adalah tinggi. Analisis korelasi Pearson pula mendapati bahawa terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara persekitaran pembelajaran dengan pencapaian akademik pelajar Tingkatan Enam di SMK Labuan, Wilayah Persekutuan Labuan. Kajian ini memberi impak kepada sekolah dalam mengadakan program kecemerlangan akademik berkaitan pencapaian akademik dalam kalangan pelajar Tingkatan Enam.

This study aims to identify the learning environment of students based on demographic factors (gender, age, ethnicity, and stream) and the academic achievement of Form Six students. It also examines the level of the learning environment in terms of facility availability, classroom environment, teacher instruction, and the relationship between the learning environment and the academic performance of Form Six students at SMK Labuan, Federal Territory of Labuan, Malaysia. In this study, a total of 110 students were selected through stratified random sampling to represent the population of 153 students as study respondents. The school studied is SMK Labuan in the Federal Territory of Labuan. The data collected was analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Science (SPSS) version 26.0 software. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics (mean, frequency, and percentage) and inferential statistics (t-test, ANOVA, and Correlation). The reliability (Cronbach's Alpha) for the overall learning environment is .929, while for academic achievement it is .880. The study's findings show that, overall, the level of the learning environment and academic achievement are high. Pearson correlation analysis also found that there is a significant relationship between the learning environment and the academic achievement of Form Six students at SMK Labuan, Federal Territory of Labuan. This study has an impact on the school in organizing academic excellence programs related to academic achievement among Form Six students.
