Abstract

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) technology into education has become increasingly important in supporting the writing proficiency of non-English major students in English for Specific Purposes (ESP) courses. This study investigates the effectiveness of ChatGPT in improving the clarity, coherence, and grammatical accuracy of students’ writing drafts. Employing a quasi-experimental design, the study examined differences in learning outcomes between a ChatGPT-assisted class (experimental group) and a traditionally taught class (control group). Data were collected through writing draft assessments, participant surveys, and interviews. The findings indicate that the experimental group demonstrated a significant improvement in writing performance, particularly in organizing and presenting ideas clearly and coherently. Furthermore, the personalized guidance provided by ChatGPT contributed to students’ learning autonomy and self-confidence. These findings highlight the potential of ChatGPT as a supportive tool for language learning while emphasizing the continued role of lecturers in validating recommendations generated by AI systems. Future research is encouraged to explore AI-assisted writing in more specialized disciplinary contexts and to investigate its long-term effects on students’ learning retention and writing development.

Abstract

Speaking is a vital skill reflecting learners' communicative competence, yet Indonesian EFL college students frequently encounter challenges such as limited vocabulary, grammatical errors, poor pronunciation, and high speaking anxiety. This study investigates the English speaking problems faced by students at IVET University and analyzes the strategies implemented by lecturers to address these challenges. Utilizing a qualitative research design, data were gathered through semi-structured in-depth interviews, classroom observations, and documentation involving 5 English lecturers and 150 students. The thematic analysis revealed that students' primary difficulties stemmed from both linguistic barriers and psychological factors, particularly fear of making mistakes and limited practice opportunities. To overcome these obstacles, lecturers employed interactive multimedia tools, small group discussions, role plays, structured presentations, constructive feedback, and motivational support within a non-threatening classroom atmosphere. The findings demonstrate that combining communicative approaches, technological integration, and continuous positive reinforcement significantly enhances students' speaking confidence, fluency, and classroom participation. Ultimately, these pedagogical strategies provide effective models for improving oral communication instruction in higher education contexts
