STUDENT SELF-EFFICACY IN SOCIAL STUDIES LEARNING AT MTSS DARUL MAKMUR SUNGAI CUBADAK
Abstract
Student self-efficacy is consequential for Social Studies learning because students must mobilize perceived capabilities to interpret social phenomena, formulate reasoned responses, and persist amid cognitive and social uncertainty. However, existing research has largely operationalized self-efficacy through measurement-oriented approaches, offering limited insight into how efficacy beliefs are enacted in situated classroom practices, particularly within madrasah education. This study examines how student self-efficacy is manifested in Grade VII Social Studies learning at MTsS Darul Makmur Sungai Cubadak. Employing a qualitative descriptive design, the study involved 23 students, a Social Studies teacher, and the madrasah principal. Data from classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, and documentation were analyzed using the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña. Findings demonstrate that self-efficacy operates as a dynamic, task-specific judgment manifested through task initiation, participation, persistence, responses to error, and re-engagement. These manifestations are informed by mastery experiences, peer modeling, teacher feedback, and affective states. The study advances a situated understanding of self-efficacy and underscores progressive autonomy as a pedagogical condition for sustaining students’ engagement with demanding Social Studies tasks.
