Abstract

Abstract : The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of study strategies on motivation for learning strategies and the impact of research strategies on elementary school students' learning outcomes. Inquiry Learning is an approach that encourages students to actively learn on their own, ask questions, discover concepts independently, and produce higher participation in the learning process. This study is a literature study that intends to examine inquiry learning strategies to measure how inquiry-based learning affects students' learning motivation and academic achievement at the elementary school level. Through a review of various accredited national journals and scientific articles, it was found that inquiry learning can consistently develop students' active participation, curiosity, and involvement in the learning process. This strategy emphasizes the active involvement of students in finding information from observation, exploration, and discussion, thereby increasing their intrinsic motivation. Previous studies have concluded that this approach is not only effective in encouraging academic achievement, but also strengthening students' critical thinking skills and problem-solving capacity. Therefore, the inquiry learning strategy is recommended as an innovative approach in contextual learning in elementary schools.
