ABSTRACT
Psychology can be defined as the study of a person’s character. In the communication field, education is crucial in achieving learning goals: whether by conveying information conventionally or technologically, teachers need to manage their learning resources adequately. This study aims to determine the importance of psychological foundations on the learning success of elementary school students. This is qualitative research, with data collected from 80 students through literature, observation, and field research on several aspects related to the psychological foundation of the teacher and its impact on students. The tools used to obtain data were observation sheets, interview guidelines, and archival documents and photographs from the research site. The data collected were processed and arranged according to category, nature, and type through reduction, presentation, and verification/conclusion. The results of the study indicate that the teachers failed to pay adequate attention to the crucial points of the students’ psychological foundation. Teachers can therefore do better at understanding learning styles, characteristics, potential, and interests.
