Abstract

Salah satu alasan keterbatasan guru-guru TK atau PAUD dalam berbicara bahasa Inggris adalah karena bahasa Inggris belum menjadi mata pelajaran wajib untuk anak usia dini. Bahasa Inggris merupakan mata pelajaran wajib hanya di level SMP sederajat dan SMA sederajat. Di level TK atau PAUD, bahasa Inggris hanya digunakan untuk keterampilan berbicara dasar seperti basic greetings (sapaan dasar), menyanyikan lagu bahasa Inggris sederhana atau menyebutkan kosa kata dasar (basic vocabulary) tertentu seperti alfabet, anggota keluarga, nama hewan, atau menyebutkan warna dalam bahasa Inggris. Sementara itu, di era informasi, komunikasi dan teknologi (ICT era) ini, keterampilan berbicara bahasa Inggris semakin diperlukan. Dengan menguasai bahasa Inggris, guru-guru juga dapat berkomunikasi dengan orang asing, bisa membaca dan memahami buku-buku bahasa Inggris, memahami konten-konten pendidikan berbahasa Inggris di sosial media, dan sebagainya. Tujuan dari pengabdian masyarakat ini adalah untuk melatih kemampuan berbicara guru-guru TK Islam Al-Ikhlas Taqwa terutama dalam pengucapan basic greetings (sapaan dasar) yang sering digunakan guru-guru ketika menyapa anak-anak didik mereka. Diharapkan dengan pelatihan ini, guru-guru termotivasi untuk lebih percaya diri berkomunikasi dalam bahasa Inggris dan membiasakan murid-muridnya dengan bahasa Inggris sejak usia dini untuk menjawab tantangan zaman di era globalisasi ini.

Abstract

The proliferation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has led to its widespread integration in educational contexts. Its application has expanded across a variety of functions, including essay writing, presentations, and interactive learning tools. Many studies have examined the use of AI in language learning, though few have explored the integration of AI within the Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT) approach in enhancing students’ communication skills. This study aims to investigate the impact of AI on EFL learners by integrating AI technology within the TBLT framework. An experimental study will be used as the research methodology with pre-test and post-test in the control and experimental groups to measure the impact. Additionally, focus group discussion (FGD) and questionnaires will be employed to collect data, examining both the impact and students’ perspectives. Researchers will examine (1) the effectiveness of TBLT in enhancing students’ speaking skills and (2) learners’ perspectives on the method regarding their communication skills. The findings suggest that the integration of AI-based TBLT is effective in improving EFL learners’ speaking and communication skills. This research offers insights into AI-assisted language learning and provides practical implications for integrating digital tools in communicative teaching strategies.
