“…Mobile technologies have started to play a vital role for teachers and students as they have become more commonly used, thanks to their educational advantages (Zengin et al, 2018). Interactions between students and professors and between students and content can continue outside the classroom (Corbeil & Valdes-Corbeil, 2007).…”

This study aims to investigate the impact of mobile learning apps on primary school students' motivation and performance in English using Mayer's Cognitive Theory of Multimedia Learning. Monotonous traditional education lowers student motivation, lowering student performance in English. This will also impact their performance in English. Mobile learning applications built on Mayer's Cognitive Theory of Multimedia Learning may be one way to increase students' motivation, which will help them solve problems more effectively and boost their performance. A pre-experimental study design was used, in which one group was examined with a comparison within a single group observed through time in the control group. A primary school's 26-year-five students were the samples discovered through purposive sampling. A questionnaire examined the effectiveness of motivation. In the meantime, students' performance was evaluated using an achievement test. Validity and reliability tests have been conducted on each instrument. To examine the impact of motivation and performance, a Wilcoxon Signed Rank-test is used to compare the mean before and after the intervention. During the intervention, a semi-structured interview was undertaken to learn more about how students perceived Mayer's Cognitive Theory of Multimedia Learning-based mobile learning apps. The data from the interviews were analysed using thematic and coding analysis. As a result, the intervention can improve student performance in primary school English with significant mean changes, supported by the data from encouraging responses from the interview session.

“…Kennedy et al (2006) assert that research is needed to determine the specific circumstances under which students would like their "living technologies" to be adapted as "learning technologies". Corbeil et al (2008) argue that to assess students" readiness for mlearning, research should be examining the MD that are currently being used in addition to the activities learners are engaged in while using these devices. Pettit and KukulskaHulme (2007) claim that uncovering existing patterns of mobile use may be beneficial to determine the role of MD in engaging learners in learning conversations but should not preclude educators from seeking out other opportunities for learners to adopt a new device or different type of MD use.…”

“…In a way to help the government achieve the objective of NKRA, this research provides a platform for primary school students to master basic language using the advantages of technology especially Augmented Reality and mobile devices. The idea of mobile learning should be used to improve pedagogical activities in course delivery at any time [2]. Although still in its infancy, mobile learning has been included in Malaysia's educational system.…”

English is an important subject for scoring in primary and secondary school exams in Malaysia. However, students are exposed to countless grammatical errors and are affected by the dialect they use in daily communication, especially for students who live in Kelantan. They are used to the use of dialect words in daily conversation. Therefore, they faced difficulties in understanding and translating the words from Bahasa Melayu to English. Furthermore, there is a lack of mobile application dictionaries to help primary school students to translate Kelantan’s dialect into English. The objectives of this research are (i) to analyse the needs and requirements to develop an AR mobile application to translate Kelantan’s dialect into English, (ii) to develop an AR mobile application that can look up the meaning of Kelantan’s dialect in English accurately, (iii) to evaluate the usability of the mobile application in terms of compatibility, consistency, flexibility, and learnability, and (iv) to evaluate the effectiveness of the mobile application to improve the vocabulary of the users. ADDIE model has been chosen in this research which consists of five phases involved in completing this research which is: (i) analysis phase, (ii) design phase, (iii) development phase, (iv) implementation phase, and (v) evaluation phase. The main contribution of this research is an AR mobile application Kelantan Dictionary called MyBrainy Kelate for primary school to improve English vocabulary. MyBrainy Kelate will help primary school students who have difficulties translating Kelantan’s dialect words into English words. The usability testing proved that MyBrainy Kelate has met the requirements of usability elements. Meanwhile, the effectiveness testing proves that the application is an effective tool for the user to improve their knowledge of English vocabulary. For future works, the research can be improvised by taking into consideration the game-based learning in the mobile application. The playability test can be conducted to test the playability of the game.
