Abstract

Interaction is a fundamental concept in enhancing students' enthusiasm for engaging in and conducting educational activities within the classroom, thereby suggesting that peer interaction significantly influences students' interest in learning. The primary issue addressed in this study is the low level of learning interest among fifth-grade students at SD Negeri 2 Palapa. Additionally, challenges related to peer interaction and insufficient attention from educators are pertinent issues in this research. The objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of peer interaction on the learning interest of students at SD Negeri 2 Palapa. The methodological approach employed is quantitative, utilizing an ex-post facto design. The population under consideration comprised 83 students, from which a sample of 40 students was randomly selected. The data were subjected to analysis through the Spearman's rho non-parametric hypothesis test. The findings from the hypothesis test in this study indicated that there was no significant effect of peer interaction on the learning interest of fifthgrade students at SD Negeri 2 Palapa
