Abstract
Following the government's movement control order, which went into effect in Mac 2020, students took their lessons online during the Covid-19 period. This study intends to investigate the relationship between students' motivation and academic achievement during Covid-19. Additionally, it investigates how motivation varies by gender, place of residence and year of study. The participants in this voluntary survey were chosen using a simple random sampling approach. In total, 62 respondents from University Malaysia Sarawak (UNIMAS) took part in this survey. They are cognitive science undergraduates in their second and third years at the Faculty of Cognitive Science and Human Development (FCSHD). The students’ motivation was measured using the Academic Motivation Scale – college version (AMS-C 28) by Vallerand et al. (1993). The students’ academic achievement was measured using cumulative grade point average (CGPA). The collected data was analyzed using Spearman’s correlation and independent T-test. The result of Spearman’s correlation shows there is a weak positive correlation between student’s motivation and academic achievement. The independent T-test reveals that there is a significant different in motivation based on gender and place of residence, but there is no significant different based on year of study. The findings of this study could assist university administration and lecturers by offering some insights regarding students' academic accomplishment and motivation in online learning for better teaching and learning sessions during Covid-19.
