This research is quasi-experimental with 2 x 2 factorial design. It uses ANOVA analysis of two paths. The results showed: 1) there was a significant difference in learning outcome between groups of students who studied with manual and digital textbooks (Fcount = 6.815; p = 0.010), 2) there was a significant difference in learning outcome between groups of students who have high and low learning motivation (Fcount = 6,173; p = 0.03) and 3) there was an effect between textbooks and learning motivation interaction towards learning outcome of Learning Media of Geography (Fcount = 3,426; p =0.036). Thus, textbooks and learning motivation can improve learning outcome and attractiveness.
