ABSTRACT

Learning readiness is one of the indicators supporting students' learning achievement. The higher the students' learning readiness is, the higher their possibility is to achieve the learning outcome. The purpose of the research is to analyze the students' learning readiness in several junior high schools in Pangkalpinang City, Bangka Belitung Island, Indonesia. The study belongs to a survey study with a cross-sectional design investigating 150 students from three junior high schools, both private and public. The data were collected through a questionnaire and they were analyzed using SPSS with one-way ANOVA and independent sample t-test. The results show that there is no difference in the students' readiness in two public junior high schools, those are SMP N 1 Pangkalpinang and SMP N 7 Pangkalpinang, with the sig value 0.568 > 0.05. Conversely, there is a difference in the learning readiness between the private and public schools, which is between SMP N 1 Pangkalpinang and SMP Muh Pangkalpinang as well as between SMP N 7 Pangkalpinang and SMP Muh Pangkalpinang, with sig value 0.000 < 0.05. Meanwhile, the t-test for the gender comparison shows no difference in terms of learning readiness, with the sig value 0.663 > 0.05. The research comes to several conclusions.

Second, male and female students show similarities in terms of learning readiness.
