Class VIII B students at Madrasah Tsanawiyah An-Najah 1 from the start lacked enthusiasm for learning and were often indifferent to learning by carrying out group counseling using discussion techniques and seemed more enthusiastic when carrying out discussions, because teachers in carrying out discussions often gave rewards to discussion participants, either in the form of praise or small gifts that can attract students' enthusiasm for active learning. b. Class VIII B An-Najah 1 students appear to be increasingly motivated to learn and hone their knowledge by discussing, because teachers as facilitators try to instill a sense of mutual respect between fellow students.
