UTILIZATION OF LEARNING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM OF UNIVERSITAS NEGERI JAKARTA ON THE LEARNING MOTIVATION OF OFFICE ADMINISTRATION EDUCATION STUDENTS

Abstrak

This study aims to evaluate the use of Learning Management System (LMS) at Universitas Negeri Jakarta (UNJ) and its impact on students' enthusiasm for learning. The method used is in-depth interviews with ten active students from the Office Administration Education Study Program who meet the requirements of LMS users in learning activities. The findings show that the LMS plays a crucial role in the learning process, providing easy access to materials, flexibility in terms of time, and interactive features such as discussion forums and quizzes that can increase student independence and engagement. However, the effect of the LMS on student motivation to learn varies and is influenced by the quality of the materials, the level of interaction between lecturers and students, and the management of the learning content. The main supportive elements include the completeness and clarity of the materials, easy access, and efficient assignment reminder features. On the other hand, the main barriers identified were technical issues such as unstable servers, lack of technical support, inadequate interface design, and lack of direct interaction with lecturers. These barriers have a negative impact on student motivation and learning effectiveness. This study recommends improvements in technology infrastructure, enhancing the quality of technical services, intensive training for lecturers and students, as well as the development of interactive features to optimize the use of LMS as an effective learning tool and can increase student motivation at UNJ.
