THE EFFECT OF SCHOOL FIELD EXPERIENCE (PLP) AND PERCEPTION OF THE TEACHER PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION PROGRAM (PPG) ON INTEREST IN BECOME A TEACHER

Minat mahasiswa untuk menjadi guru masih menjadi tantangan dalam dunia pendidikan, terutama dalam menyiapkan calon guru profesional. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh pengalaman Pengenalan Lapangan Persekolahan (PLP) dan persepsi program Pendidikan Profesi Guru (PPG) terhadap minat menjadi guru. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif. Teknik analisis data yang digunakan adalah regresi linear berganda. Penelitian dilakukan di Program Studi Pendidikan Ekonomi Universitas Negeri Surabaya, dengan sampel sebanyak 150 mahasiswa angkatan 2020–2022 yang dipilih menggunakan teknik purposive sampling. Data dikumpulkan menggunakan kuesioner yang disebarkan secara daring. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa 1) Secara parsial, pengalaman PLP tidak berpengaruh terhadap minat menjadi guru, 2) Persepsi program PPG memiliki pengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap minat menjadi guru 3) Secara simultan pengalaman PLP dan persepsi program PPG berpengaruh signifikan terhadap minat menjadi guru. Kesimpulannya, persepsi mahasiswa terhadap PPG lebih berperan dalam membentuk minat menjadi guru dibandingkan pengalaman PLP. Oleh karena itu, disarankan agar program PPG ditingkatkan dalam hal kualitas dan pemahaman mahasiswa terhadap tujuan program.

Student interest in becoming a teacher remains a challenge in the world of education, especially in preparing prospective professional teachers. This study aims to analyze the influence of the School Field Introduction (PLP) experience and the perception of the Teacher Professional Education (PPG) program on interest in becoming a teacher. This study uses a quantitative approach. The data analysis technique used is multiple linear regression. The study was conducted in the Economics Education Study Program, Surabaya State University, with a sample of 150 students from the 2020–2022 intake selected using a purposive sampling technique. Data were collected using an online questionnaire. The results of the analysis indicate that 1) Partially, the PLP experience does not affect interest in becoming a teacher, 2) Perception of the PPG program has a positive and significant influence on interest in becoming a teacher, 3) Simultaneously, the PLP experience and perception of the PPG program have a significant influence on interest in becoming a teacher. In conclusion, student perceptions of PPG play a greater role in shaping interest in becoming a teacher than PLP experience. Therefore, it is recommended that the PPG program be improved in terms of quality and student understanding of the program's objectives.
