Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the description of student attitudes and learning environments towards physics and the relationship of student attitudes and learning environments towards physics at SMAN 6 Batang Hari. This type of research is quantitative using a correlational design with the instrument used is a questionnaire. The subjects of this study were 156 students from SMAN 6 Batang Hari. Quantitative data analysis techniques use descriptive and inferential statistics. The description for attitude is categorized as sufficient. While for the learning environment that is categorized good. The relationship between students' attitudes and learning environment towards physics is in the strong category with a pearson correlation of 0.719. Based on the results of SMAN 6 Batang Hari, the relationship between students' attitudes and the learning environment is strong for learning physics. Thus, positive student attitudes will be formed through a conducive learning environment.
Highlights
Education is an effort conducted to grow and develop the human resources potential, especially students, by guiding and facilitating their learning activities
7 attitude indicators were reviewed which included 1) scientist normality, 2) social implications of physics, 3) adoption of a scientific attitude, 4) pleasure in learning physics, 5) investigation in physics, 6) interest in increasing physics learning duration and 7) interest to build a career in physics
The results of the attitude questionnaire that have been distributed at SMAN 6 Batang Hari can be seen on Table 2
Summary
Education is an effort conducted to grow and develop the human resources potential, especially students, by guiding and facilitating their learning activities. Education plays an important role in improving the human resources quality (Astalini et al, 2019a; Darmaji, Kurniawan, & Suryani, 2019). Education is a measure of a nation's advancement (Kurniawan et al, 2019; Maison et al, 2019). One of the education level that is attended by highly potential and competitive human resources is Senior High School (Astalini, Kurniawan, & Sumaryanti, 2018). High curiosity is the spirit high school students possess in studying.
