Abstract

The increasing integration of artificial intelligence in education raises questions about how students perceive and engage with AI tools for language learning. This study aimed to explore the perceptions of English education students at Hamzanwadi University regarding the use of ChatGPT in practicing English speaking skills. Using a qualitative descriptive design, data were collected through open-ended questionnaires, classroom observations, and individual interviews with 20 sixth-semester students. The findings revealed that most students held positive perceptions of ChatGPT, citing its accessibility, privacy, and non-judgmental nature as key benefits that enhanced their speaking practice. Furthermore, students reported increased motivation, confidence, and engagement during their interactions with the chatbot, especially due to its 24/7 availability and supportive feedback environment. However, some participants noted limitations in the quality of ChatGPT’s feedback, which occasionally lacked depth or contextual understanding. The findings contribute to AI-assisted language learning literature by emphasizing the potential of ChatGPT to support speaking fluency and learner autonomy, especially when complemented by teacher guidance. This research suggests that integrating ChatGPT into EFL classrooms can create low-anxiety, personalized speaking opportunities, while also highlighting the need for pedagogical scaffolding to optimize its use.

Abstract

This study investigates students’ perceptions of the animated film Finding Nemo as a medium for learning English vocabulary and explores how it facilitates vocabulary acquisition in authentic and engaging contexts. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach, the study involved 35 second-semester students of the English Education Study Program at Hamzanwadi University. Data were gathered through open-ended questionnaires and semi-structured interviews, and analyzed thematically to identify patterns emerging from participants’ responses. The findings indicate that students generally have positive perceptions toward using Finding Nemo in vocabulary learning. They reported acquiring both concrete and abstract vocabulary through contextual exposure in the film’s dialogues and visual storytelling. The combination of audio, visual, and emotional elements enhanced comprehension and long-term retention. Moreover, students expressed that learning through the film was more enjoyable and motivating compared to traditional methods, as it fostered a relaxed and interactive learning environment. These results suggest that animated films such as Finding Nemo not only enrich students’ vocabulary but also promote positive attitudes and motivation toward learning English.
