Abstract

General Background: Mobile-Assisted Language Learning (MALL) has become a transformative tool in English language instruction, especially at the elementary level. Specific Background: The "Bright–English for Beginners" application is among the innovative platforms aiming to enhance early EFL learning through interactive, gamified, and adaptive content. Knowledge Gap: While existing literature emphasizes student outcomes, limited research addresses teachers’ perspectives and the practical challenges of implementing such technology in classrooms. Aims: This study explores elementary EFL teachers’ experiences using the Bright application, focusing on perceived benefits, pedagogical challenges, and instructional strategies. Results: Teachers reported increased student motivation, personalized learning, and improved engagement through multimedia features and assessment tools. However, challenges included unstable internet, curriculum misalignment, limited training, and skepticism from stakeholders. Novelty: Unlike prior studies, this research foregrounds the teacher’s role in MALL integration and highlights creative pedagogical adaptations—peer learning, digital portfolios, and real-world language tasks—as critical to successful implementation. Implications: Findings suggest that effective educational technology adoption requires not just functional tools, but robust infrastructure, curriculum integration, and ongoing professional development. This study contributes practical insights for developers, educators, and policymakers aiming to enhance early language learning through digital platforms.Highlight : Teachers believe that this application significantly improves student motivation and participation. The main challenges include unstable internet connections and curriculum compatibility. Creative strategies such as peer learning and contextual assignments reinforce the effectiveness of the application.

Abstract

Sintaks adalah cabang linguistik penting yang berfokus pada analisis struktur tata bahasa dalam kalimat. Ini membahas aspek inti sintaksis, termasuk struktur dasar kalimat, hubungan antara konstituen, hierarki dan urutan, dan transformasi tata bahasa. Pemahaman yang mendalam terhadap struktur gramatikal dalam bahasa merupakan landasan utama dalam memahami bagaimana pesan dan makna disusun dalam bahasa manusia. Sintaks tidak hanya mempunyai dampak dalam konteks teoretis, namun juga memiliki penerapan praktis yang luas, termasuk dalam pengajaran bahasa, pemrosesan bahasa alami, pengembangan teknologi terkait bahasa seperti terjemahan mesin, dan komunikasi lintas budaya. Dengan pemahaman sintaksis yang kuat, kita dapat lebih memahami kompleksitas bahasa manusia dan cara bahasa memengaruhi cara kita berkomunikasi dan berinteraksi. Jurnal ini merinci peran sintaksis dalam pemahaman bahasa, menjelaskan konsep-konsep penting dalam sintaksis, dan merinci implikasi praktis dari pemahaman tersebut dalam berbagai konteks kehidupan sehari-hari.
