Intrinsic motivation that affects students joining PGSD varies from the desire to be elementary school teachers, civil servants, and private course owners. On the other hands, students also vary in terms of extrinsic motivation, for example, following the wishes of their parents, following PGSD trend, expecting high salaries, being not accepted in the previously desired study program, and joining friends.
