Abstract

Interference is one of many factors that can damage a language system. It frequently happens in langauge learning process. The interference happened due to the tendency to adapt the feature of one language to another without considering the similarities and differences between the languages. Language interference can take part either in phonological, lexical, or grammatical aspects. The current paper aims to reveal the most frequent grammatical interference made by the students in learning English. To get broader insight, the library research is carried out. It relies on other articles under the same concers of students’ grammatical interference in learning English as the main objective. Six researches were taken to be referred as the primary sources which were published within the last 5 years. The results of each study were explored to get more comprehension for the inquiries of this paper. Based on the analysis, the results showed that the students’ grammatical interference in learning English were made in the form of morphological and syntactical structure. The most frequent syntactical interference deals with word order. While the morphological interference was dominated by the use of tense, be form, subject-verb agreement, singular and plural form.

Abstract

This study aims to measure students’ interest in using ChatGPT to teach English using the debate clinic method to improve students’ speaking skills. Descriptive quantitative research involving 14 students of the Islamic Religious Education Study Program, STAI DDI Pinrang, used a questionnaire to measure four indicators of learning interest: feelings of pleasure, interest, paying attention, and involvement. The results revealed that the student’s average score of learning interest reached 77, indicating a relatively high interest. Students’ participation in formulating and refuting arguments during debates proves that ChatGPT positively impacts the development of students’ critical thinking skills. Therefore, this study contributes to developing technology-based pedagogy, especially in academic debate. Integrating ChatGPT in the debate process allows teachers to create a more dynamic and interactive learning environment where students can be more actively involved. However, the study has several limitations. First, the limited number of samples, so generalizing the study results may not apply to a broader population. Additionally, it only focused on one study program at one institution, so the results may not reflect the situation at other institutions. Therefore, further research can explore other factors that influence learning interest, such as pedagogical aspects and technology used in the learning process.
