Abstract

Integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) into English language learning has garnered substantial attention and raised pertinent questions about its implications for the future of language education. This qualitative study with a systematic review design probes into the complex relationship between AI and English learning, whether AI in English language learning constitutes a potential detriment to the educational process, and whether AI is a disaster or a boon for English learning. A total of 15 peer-reviewed articles published between 2019 to 2023 (indexed in Scopus, WoS, and Sinta) were analyzed through four steps (data extraction, quality assessment, data synthesis, and result interpretation) to ensure comprehensive coverage. The findings from this study revealed not only multifaceted insights into the relationship between AI and English language learning, such as personalized learning, increased interactivity, and accessibility, but also its challenges, including privacy-related concerns, loss of human interactions, and reliability issues. This present study contributes to a comprehensive understanding of the role of AI in English language learning, offering educators, researchers, and policy-makers valuable insights into the benefits and potential pitfalls of integrating AI technologies in language education. Moreover, this present study provides a details exploration of the AI-English learning paradigm, emphasizing the need for a holistic perspective that leverages AIs strengths while safeguarding the integrity and vitality of the English language learning experience. Furthermore, this study offers recommendations for future research endeavors, emphasizing the need for ongoing evaluation and refinement of AI-based English learning strategies.

Abstract

            This study analyzed the use of code-mixing by Generation Z, particularly English Literature students of UNIMA Batch 2021, in their WhatsApp group discussions. Since the data were in the form of written conversations rather than numerical data, this study applied a descriptive qualitative method to answer the research question. The data were collected from WhatsApp class group discussions over one semester, specifically from August 20, 2023, to December 19, 2023. This study used Hoffmann's (2014) theory to identify the types of code-mixing and Myers-Scotton’s (1998) Markedness Model as the framework. The findings revealed 113 instances of code-mixing, which were classified into three types: Insertion (63 cases), Alternation (20 cases), and Congruent Lexicalization (9 cases). The analysis also showed that 84 instances were marked, indicating intentional use for emphasis, social identity, or academic expression, while 29 instances were unmarked, suggesting a natural and habitual use of code-mixing in digital communication. The results indicate that code-mixing among these students is influenced by their academic environment, digital exposure, and peer interactions. This research contributes to the understanding of how Generation Z integrates multiple languages in everyday communication, particularly in academic settings.

Abstract

The president is the icon of the number one person in a country, and the position of president is the highest position that allows him to always communicate with the public, namely making public speeches. The understanding of the listeners or the public towards the speech delivered by the president allows misunderstandings to arise in interpreting the meaning it contains, both implied and expressed. Therefore, it is very necessary to have a critical discourse analysis of what the president conveys in general. For this reason, the purpose of this research is to analyze the macro structure, superstructure, and micro structure contained in the text of the president's speech, as well as to reveal the implied intent of the president who put forward a statement in relation to action, context, history, power, and ideology. In addition, because the essence of the research is to describe in detail, the method used is qualitative with the principle of critical discourse analysis from Van Djik. Furthermore, the speech delivered by President Joko Widodo, which was delivered online on the metrotvnews youtube channel on May 19, 2022, was used as the object of this research. By applying the techniques of documentation, observation, systematic recording, literature study and listening to the data and research objects, the results show that the researcher found three dimensions of critical discourse analysis in speech texts, namely macro structure, supra structure, and micro structure. The characteristics of critical discourse analysis found in news texts are action, context, history, power, and ideology. In addition, five implied intentions were also found in the video that was shown online
