摘要:Using quantitative research methods based on Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) in educational research, to analyze the various relationships among variables in the model formed based on the theories studied, few researchers did. This study was conducted to determine the effectiveness of motivation, learning style and discipline of teach on academic achievement Form four students Additional Mathematics in Kuala Terengganu District. The instrument used in this study is based on the School Inventory Learning model developed by Selmes (1987). The item questionnaire in this instrument has been adapted to the investigation investigation. A total of 260 research samples were included in the study, consisting of four forms students in 10 schools in Kuala Terengganu District. Data were analyzed using IBM-SPSS-AMOS (SEM) program version 21.0. SEM analysis consists of two main models: the measurement model and the Structural model. Prior to the SEM test, some adjustment tests were performed to ensure that the tested indicator actually represented the measured construct. Two analyzes in this study are prerequisites that have been met before the SEM analysis is done ie Factor Exploration Analysis (EFA) and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA). The findings indicate that the motivation, learning style and discipline of learning have a positive and significant effect on student achievement in academic achievement. Furthermore, motivation also has a positive and significant impact on the learning discipline, but the learning style has no positive and not significant effect on the learning discipline. Intermediate analysis findings for the learning discipline take place between motivation and academic achievement and do not occur between learning styles and academic achievement. The findings in this study indicate that educators need to instill enthusiasm for students as well as to know their students' learning styles and to ensure that students have a learning discipline, because it can affect student academic achievement.
