The Test of Hypothesis

significance 1 is 0.403 see appendix. The writer concluded that r xy is smaller than t t or r xy r t = 0.312 0.271 0.403, so that H a is rejected H o is accepted.

D. The Interpretation of Data

From the correlation computation, we can interpret that there is a positive correlation between learning motivation as X variable and learning achievement as Y variable. From the calculation Pearson’s Product moment correlation above, the writer got the result from r xy = 0.271 it is between 0.20 - 0.40. According to simple interpretation above, we noticed that the correlation between X variable and Y variable is low correlation and it is considered there is no significance correlation between x variable learning motivation and y variable students’ achievement in English.

CHAPTER V CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTION

A. Conclusion

Based on the data that has been described in the previous chapters, the writer concludes that the null hypothesis is accepted and the alternative hypothesis is rejected. It can be seen from the result of r xy is 0.271 with the degree freedom is 38. The result of t t on the degree of significance 5 = 0.312 and in 1 = 0.403. so r xy is small than t t or r xy t t = 0.312 0.271 0.403. it means that the conclusion of this ‘skripsi’ is there is no significant correlation between students’ learning motivation and learning achievement in English. The conclusion shows that the students with lower motivation do not always get lower score in English achievement and the students with higher motivation do not guarantee that they will get higher score in English achievement.

B. Suggestion

The research outcome shows that there is a positive correlation between students’ learning motivation and learning achievement in English. So, the teachers should give more encouragement to the students beside giving or transferring knowledge. Teacher should be more creative in giving a lesson and using various teaching method, in order the students can be more comfortable and more interested in learning English. Teacher should stimulate motivation in learning and should let students like learning and find academic activities satisfied, so they can be more active and better progress in learning English.
