Abstract

ABSTRACT This study aims to analyze students' perceptions of the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in English language learning at Sekolah Tinggi Ilmu Administrasi (STIA) Lppn Padang. In particular, it focuses on the application of ChatGPT, an AI-based chatbot developed by OpenAI, to assist students in improving their writing skills. Through surveys and interviews, data were collected from students to evaluate their experiences and perceptions of using ChatGPT. The findings reveal that while many students appreciate the support provided by AI in terms of ease of access to information, improved writing efficiency, and enhanced understanding, concerns remain regarding over-reliance on technology and potential impacts on independent learning. This research contributes to the broader discussion on integrating advanced technology into educational practices and its implications for future learning environments.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis implementasi komunikasi efektif berbasis gender dalam interaksi layanan publik di Kantor Camat Solok Selatan. Layanan publik yang responsif terhadap kesetaraan gender menjadi elemen penting dalam mewujudkan pelayanan yang adil, inklusif, dan berkualitas. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah kualitatif deskriptif dengan teknik pengumpulan data melalui observasi, wawancara mendalam, dan dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa meskipun aparatur telah menunjukkan sikap ramah dan sopan dalam berinteraksi dengan masyarakat, penerapan komunikasi yang sensitif gender masih belum optimal. Perbedaan pendekatan komunikasi terhadap pengguna layanan laki-laki dan perempuan masih ditemukan, yang mencerminkan adanya bias tidak sadar. Selain itu, belum tersedianya pelatihan formal dan pedoman teknis mengenai komunikasi berbasis gender menjadi kendala utama. Temuan ini merekomendasikan perlunya peningkatan kapasitas aparatur melalui pelatihan komunikasi inklusif, penyusunan SOP berbasis gender, serta evaluasi layanan yang mempertimbangkan pengalaman dan kebutuhan pengguna dari perspektif gender.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the factors influencing English for Specific Purposes (ESP) students’ oral communication skills in speaking classes, with particular emphasis on gender differences among Public Administration students at STIA Lppn Padang. Employing a qualitative research approach, the study involved 32 Public Administration students enrolled in an ESP speaking course. Data were collected through classroom observations and semi-structured interviews. The findings reveal that female students demonstrated stronger oral communication performance than their male counterparts, as evidenced by higher levels of motivation, greater self-confidence, and more effective management of speaking anxiety. In addition, female students were more responsive to teacher support, more actively engaged in peer interaction, and better able to utilize the classroom environment to enhance their speaking skills. In contrast, male students showed lower engagement, limited preparation, and reduced confidence in oral communication tasks. These findings indicate that gender differences in ESP speaking performance are context-dependent and shaped by an interaction of psychological and social factors. Pedagogically, the results suggest the need for ESP instructors to adopt gender-responsive teaching strategies, such as varied speaking tasks, structured peer collaboration, and supportive feedback mechanisms, to promote equitable participation and enhance oral communication skills among all students.
