This This study aims to analyze the effect of motivation on the learning outcomes of adult learners at Bimbel Al Khoiriyah. The background of this research stems from the low learning enthusiasm often found among adult learners, which is influenced by factors such as fatigue after work, lack of internal drive, and limited motivational support in the learning environment. In adult education, motivation plays a crucial role in determining learning success, as adults possess different learning needs and characteristics compared to younger students. This research employed a quantitative approach with a simple experimental method. The treatment involved motivational sessions delivered through brief lectures and inspirational messages before the learning activities began. The study involved six adult participants enrolled in the tutoring program. Data were collected using pre-test and post-test assessments to measure learning achievement. The results showed an increase in the average score from 70 to 85 after the motivational treatment, indicating a positive influence of motivation on learning outcomes. The findings highlight the importance of motivation in improving both the process and outcomes of learning, especially among adult learners who face unique challenges in balancing education and daily responsibilities. With appropriate motivational strategies, adult learners can become more focused, confident, and capable of achieving better academic performance.

This study aims to determine the effect of using interactive multimedia learning media on students’ understanding of fiqh material among eighth-grade students at MTsN 1 Medan. The background of this research is based on the low level of students’ learning interest and understanding of fiqh subjects, which is caused by the use of conventional teaching methods that are less engaging and monotonous. Therefore, innovation in learning media is needed to increase student involvement and understanding. The research method employed is a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental design. The study involved two groups: an experimental group that was taught using interactive multimedia and a control group that was taught using conventional learning methods. Research instruments included achievement tests, questionnaires, and observation sheets to measure students’ understanding and responses to the learning process. The results of the instrument validity test showed that 17 out of 20 test items were valid, with a high level of reliability indicated by a Cronbach’s Alpha value of 0.930. Prerequisite tests, including normality, linearity, and heteroscedasticity tests, demonstrated that the data met the requirements for linear regression analysis. The regression analysis produced the equation Y = 17.002 + 0.604X, with a significance value of 0.001 < 0.05 and a calculated t-value greater than the t-table value, indicating that interactive multimedia learning media have a positive and significant effect on students’ understanding of fiqh material.
