Abstract

This study aims to examine the development of first language acquisition theories in early childhood through a systematic review approach. By analyzing 52 scholarly publications from 2021 to 2025, the research identifies the theoretical evolution from behaviorist theories to modern neurobiological and computational approaches. The findings reveal that language acquisition theories have progressed from stimulus–response paradigms to a more comprehensive understanding of the interactions among genetic, neurological, and social-environmental factors. Key results highlight the emergence of new perspectives such as Dynamic Systems Theory, Usage-Based Theory reinforced by neuroimaging, and multimodal approaches to language acquisition. Practical implications include the development of more effective language learning strategies and early interventions for language disorders in children.

Abstract

This study aims to improve students’ understanding of the Makassar local language among eighth-grade students at SMP Telkom Makassar. The research employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design. The participants consisted of seven Grade VIII classes involving 183 students. The research instrument was a multiple-choice test administered before and after the instructional intervention. Data were analyzed descriptively and using normalized gain (g) based on Hake’s formula. The results show that the average pre-test scores ranged from 35.58 to 43.27 and increased to 62.24–83.52 in the post-test. The g-Hake analysis indicates that six classes achieved a medium improvement category (g = 0.342–0.557), while one class reached a high category (g = 0.734), with an overall weighted g of 0.513. These findings indicate that Makassar language instruction is effective in improving students’ understanding and has potential to strengthen linguistic competence and preserve local culture in schools.
