Received: 11-06-2018 Accepted: 24-08-2018 Published: 01-10-2018 Abstract: This research aims to find out the effect of teacher professional competence and learning facility on students learning motivation. The research method used by the researcher is the survey method. For the measurement uses Likert scale 5 options spreaded to 174 respondents. From the result of validity test, the variable X1 had 18 valid items, the variable X2 had 20 valid items, and variable Y had 18 valid items. The instrument reliability for the three variables are reliable. The data analysis uses double regression. Based on the result of the research, the questionnaire score gained for variable X1, variable X2 and variable Y was categorized high criterion. Based on the result of calculation of double regression analysis, it shows that teacher professional competence and learning facility had positive and significant effect on students learning motivation both partially and simultaneously. Therefore, to increase the students learning motivation, the teacher professional competence and learning facility should be increased, those are: 1) Teacher should master the learning material and improve the attractive learning method or media to increase students learning motivation; 2) The teacher should create pleasant learning atmosphere so the learning process can run effectively; 3) The students are expected to increase their reading so they can utilize their own ability and not depend on other’s opinion. Keywords: teacher competence; learning facility; learning motivation. INTRODUCTION Motivation is an effort realized to propel, direct and keep one’s behavior so he is encouraged to act or do something to reach certain purpose. So, motivation can be made learning strengthener, to clarify learning objectives that will be reached, and to determine learning diligence. In fact, students learning motivation are various. There is high motivation, moderate motivation, and even low motivation, as on the students of Class VIII National Junior High School 3 Kuningan. There are still students who are less serious in the learning: they pay less attention to the teacher while in the teaching and learning activity, they do not have enthusiasm to come after the lesson, and they are absent-minded in doing task given by the teacher. There are many factors that can affect students learning motivation, such as teacher professional competence and learning facility. Teacher professional competence is a competence or ability related to the teaching tasks completion. Professional Competence is expected to be fulfilled that teacher should master the effective learning method, can manage learning so that students will not get bored because teacher can manage the learning activity become pleasant learning mailto:iinsunarti56@gmail.com Iin Sunarti & Teni Rumyani The effect of teacher professional competence and learning facility on students’ learning motivation 46 activity that motivates students to learn and perform well. Besides the teacher professional competence, students learning facility also has important role in their learning process because learning facility is everything that can facilitate and smooth the teaching and learning process at school, such as the availability of learning place (class room), teaching visual aids, textbook, library, laboratory and any learning supporting facility. Therefore, professional competence and supporting learning facility can increase students learning motivation. Based on the explanation above, the researcher conducted the research entitled The Effect of Teacher Professional Competence and Learning Facility on Students Learning Motivation of Class VIII National Junior High School 3 Kuningan. Based on the background explained above, the researcher formulated research problems as follows: 1) How are the description of teacher professional competence, learning facility and students learning motivation of Class VIII at National Junior High School 3 Kuningan? 2) How is the effect of teacher professional competence and learning facility on students learning motivation of Class VIII at National Junior High School 3 Kuningan? 3) How is the effect of teacher professional competence on students learning motivation of Class VIII at National Junior High School 3 Kuningan? 4) How is the effect of learning facility on students learning motivation of Class VIII at National Junior High School 3 Kuningan? Motivation comes from the word ‘motive’ that can be defined as driving force existing in one’s self to do certain activity for the goal achievement. According to Purwanto (2010: 61), motivation is a complex statement in an organism that directs behavior to a goal or incentive. Motivation is viewed as mental propulsion that propels and directs human behavior, including learning behavior. In running his role and function, a teacher should be supported by various competencies so that he maximizes his performance. According to Sudrajat (2011, p. 116), he explains that: Basically, competence is the description about what should be able to do by someone in a task, such as activity, behavior and result that should be presented or shown. To be able to do something in his job, someone surely needs to have ability in form of knowledge, attitude, and skill in accordance with his job field.” Suyanto and Hisyam as cited in Sudrajat (2011: 116), state that teacher professional competence is a teacher that has wide knowledge from the subject matter he teaches, chooses and uses various teaching method in the teaching and learning method he organizes. Beside that, learning facility is extremely important in teaching and learning activity, since with adequate learning facility then learning purpose that has been established will be achieved. Djamarah (2006: 46) says that facility is everything that facilitates students. While, Sopiatin (2010: 73) argues that learning facility is medium and infrastructure that have to be available to smooth the educational activity at school. It can be concluded that learning facility is medium and infrastructure that can smooth the students teaching and learning process in order to make the purpose of education itself can run smoothly, regularly, effectively, and efficiently. METHOD To conduct a research needed appropriate research method to get the conclusion. The use of research method was accustomed with the research objectives and situation so the instrument or technique that would be used can be established. The method used in this research was survey method. Sugiyono (2015: 12) stated that survey method was used to obtained data from certain place that was natural (not artificial), but the research did some treatments in data collection, such as Indonesian Journal of Learning and Instruction Volume 1, Issue 2, October 2018 p-ISSN 2614-8250, e-ISSN 2614-5677 https://journal.uniku.ac.id/index.php/IJLI 47 spreading questionnaire, test, structured interview, and so on. Variable was something that was valuated. It was in accordance with Sugiyono’s (2015:60) opinion who proposed that variable was everything in any form that is determined by the researcher to be studied until the information about the variable was obtained, then it drew the conclusion. Variable in this research consisted of two unbound variables that were teacher professional competence (X1) and Learning Facility (X2), and students learning motivation (Y) as the affected variable. This measurement was a complex problem because it was related to the problem of variable function to describe the construct abstraction it represented. The measurement used in this research is Likert scale. Sugiyono (2015: 134) proposes that Likert scale was used to measure someone’s or group’s attitude, opinion, and perception about social phenomenon. The measuring instrument used was questionnaire with five alternative answers as shown in Table 1. On the other hand, the researcher established indicators from each variable as presented in Table 2.

Having curiosity Indonesian Journal of Learning and Instruction Volume 1, Issue 2, October 2018 p-ISSN 2614-8250, e-ISSN 2614-5677 https://journal.uniku.ac.id/index.php/IJLI 49 In conducted research activity, data collection was an important step to find out the characteristic of the population that becomes the elements of the research object, and the data was used for the hypothesis testing. Sugiyono (2015: 117) proposes that population was the generalization region which consists of object/subject that has quality and certain characteristic established by the researcher to be studied and then drawn the conclusion. Population in this research was 308 people from ten class of VIII National Junior High School 3 Kuningan. To obtain the sample that became the respondent, the research used Slovin formula (Suharsaputra, 2012: 119) in Quantitative, Qualitative, and Action Research Methods as followed: 2 1 Ne N n   Explanation: n = Sample number N = Population e2 = Error tolerance that would be taken by the researcher Based on Slovin formula above, the researcher took sample as follows:  2%53081 308  n 01.174n . 174n (rounded) Thus, the researcher determined research samples of 174 people. Sampling technique used in this research was probability sampling technique that was sampling technique to give equal opportunity to each population member to be chosen as sample member. Based on the application, this probability sampling technique was done using proportional random sampling, that was the sampling and allocation that was proportionally based on the total of sampling unit in the strata. The technique used in this data collection was Questionnaire Distribution that was data collection technique using series of written statements given to the respondents who became research sample members, and this had affect on the indicators on each variable. Questionnaire that was spreaded was closed questionnaire form with Likert scale five categories to measure variable of Teacher Professional Competence (X1), Students Learning Facility (X2), and Learning Motivation (Y). In the instrument testing in qustionnaire form, it needed to conduct validity test and realibility test first. In the operational step, validity test and reliability test were supported by using SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Science) 20 program software. To describe the Teacher Professional Competence (Variable X1), Learning Facility (Variable X2) and Learning Motivation (Variable Y), the researcher used percentage technique. Next, for the hypothesis testing, the researcher did some steps. There was Statistical Prerequisites Test which contained some tests, namely data conversion, normality test, auto-corrrelation, multicollinearity, and double regression. Data conversion was done as the rule to use parametric statistic. Since the kind of data collected by the researcher was the ordinal data (rank) so it needed to be converted to interval data (gap inter-data had same weight). Normality test was done as the rule test of analysis if would be used in Parametric statistic. Besides, to find out whether the sample was distributed normal or not, sample normality test was done using Kolmogorov - Smirnov. Meanwhile, if one of the variable data was not distributed normal, the analysis data would use non-parametric statistic with Rank Spearman Correlation formula. Auto-correlation was meant to find out whether or not there was correlation between residual in one observation with other observation. For the calculation, the researcher used SPSS for Windows 20 program. While to find out whether or not there was auto-correlation used Durbin Watson (DW) test (Santoso, 2000: 47) in Hanggara (2012: 7). Iin Sunarti & Teni Rumyani The effect of teacher professional competence and learning facility on students’ learning motivation 50 Multicollinearity test was to find out whether or not there was high correlation among the unbound variables in a model of doubled linear regression. To find whether or not there was multicollinearity could be seen by comparing VIF (Variance Inflation Factor) value. If the value of VIF calculation result was higher than 10 (>10) then the variable had multicollinearity with other unbound variables. Conversely, if the value of VIF < 10 then it could be said that there was no multicollinearity (Santoso, 2000: 39) in Hanggara (2012: 6). For the calculation, the researcher used SPSS for Windows 20 program. Double regression analysis was the improvement of simple regression analysis. The function was to predict the value of related variable (y) if the unbound variables were two or more. According to Somantri (2011: 250), double regression analysis was the tool to predict the influence value of two or more unbound variables on one dependent variable (to prove whether or not there was functional relationship or causal relationship between two or more unbound variables ,… on a dependent variable Y. For the calculation of double regression, the researcher used SPSS 20 (Statistical Package for Social Science) 20 program. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION In the validity test was used to find out whether an instrument was valid or not when used in the data collection. The calculation result of instrument validity item on each variable was as followed. Table 3. Calculation result of item analysis on instrument validity test Variable Number of Valid Items Number of Invalid Items X1 18 Items 2 Items X2 20 Items - Y 18 Items 2 Items Total 56 Items 4 Items In the reliability testing, the research used Cronbach’s Alpha formula supported with SPSS for windows V.17 program. The calculation result of reliability test was as follow: Table 4.

It was seen from the calculation result used SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Science) 20 obtained Kolmogorov Smirnov X1 as 657 with significance of variable X1 (Professional Competence) was 0.781, the value of Kolmogorov Smirnov X2 as 1.176 with significance variable X2 (Learning Facility) was 0.126, and the value of Kolmogorov Smirnov Y as 1.016 with significance of variable Y (Learning Motivation) was 0.253. The significance value > 0.05 which meant that the data of variable X1 (Professional Competence), X2 (Learning Facility) and Y (Learning Motivation) was distributed normal. In the auto-correlation was meant to find out whether or not there was correlation between residual in one observation with other observation. While to find out whether or not there was auto-correlation used Durbin Watson (DW) test (Santoso, 2000: 47) in Hanggara (2012: 7). It was seen from the calculation result using SPSS for Windows was obtained the value of DW of 1.897. The result of DW = 1.897 if accustomed with the table of DW value classification, the value was on 1.55 – 2.46 which showed that there was now auto- correlation. Multicollinearity test was to find out whether or not there was high correlation among the unbound variables in a model of doubled linear regression. To find whether or not there was multicollinearity can be seen by comparing VIF (Variance Inflation Factor) value. If the value of VIF calculation result was higher than 10 (>10) then the variable had multicollinearity with other unbound variables. Conversely, if the value of VIF < 10 then it could be said that there was no multicollinearity (Santoso, 2000: 39) in Hanggara (2012: 6). Based on the calculation result used SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Science) 20, it was obtained the tolerance value of variable Teacher Professional Competence (X1) and Learning Facility (X2) as 0.658 > 0.10. While the VIF value of variable Teacher Professional Competence and Learning Facility was 1.521 < 10.00. So it could be concluded that there was no multicollinearity. Table 6.
