Abstract

The primary objective of this study is to analyze the impact of group guidance services utilizing the "educational cinema" (cinema-education) technique on the improvement of students' academic-psychological conditions. The study’s success indicators focus on strengthening the self-efficacy and learning motivation of inclusive students with special needs—specifically those exhibiting low self-confidence—enrolled in class VIII D at SMPN 1 Kongbeng, East Kutai. Employing a one-group pretest-posttest design, this experimental study involved the entire class VIII D cohort at SMPN 1 Kongbeng, East Kutai, consisting of 30 students. The research sample focused on seven inclusive students who scored low on academic-psychological assessments, as measured via a questionnaire. The intervention was implemented through group guidance sessions using the educational cinema technique, conducted over four meetings. Finally, the collected data were analyzed using an inferential t-test to evaluate the statistical significance of the intervention's impact. The research findings indicate a significant improvement in the students' academic-psychological variables following their participation in the group guidance sessions based on the educational cinema technique. The t-test results confirm that this group guidance intervention contributes significantly to enhancing both the learning motivation and self-efficacy of inclusive students within the school setting.
