Abstract

 The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in language learning has transformed academic writing, particularly in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) contexts. AI-powered writing tools such as QuillBot offer real-time feedback, automated paraphrasing, and grammatical enhancements, potentially improving students’ writing proficiency. However, limited research explores the specific impact of QuillBot on argumentative essay writing in EFL classrooms. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of QuillBot in enhancing the writing skills of third-semester EFL students at Universitas Darma Persada, Indonesia. Using a quasi-experimental design, 60 students were divided into an experimental group (QuillBot-assisted learning) and a control group (traditional instruction). Pre-test and post-test essay scores were analyzed using SPSS 27.0 to assess improvements in structure, coherence, and grammar. The findings revealed that students using QuillBot showed significantly higher improvements in writing proficiency compared to those in the control group. The experimental group demonstrated enhanced argumentation, coherence, and grammatical accuracy, indicating that AI-assisted tools can be effective in fostering writing development. The study concludes that QuillBot is a valuable supplementary tool for EFL writing instruction, providing instant feedback and reducing students’ dependency on traditional teacher-led corrections. Educators are encouraged to integrate AI writing assistants into teaching methodologies to optimize learning outcomes. Future research should explore the long-term effects of AI-assisted writing on different writing genres and across diverse educational contexts.

Abstract

This research aims to explore how gender is constructed and represented through feminism in the films Barbie and Wonder Woman, using Stuart Hall’s representation theory, particularly his constructionist approach. Hall’s theory emphasizes that ‘meaning’ is not just a passive reflection; it’s actively shaped by culture, language, symbols, and the interpretation of social contexts. By employing a qualitative research methodology, this study embraces a constructivist paradigm, which aligns with Hall’s (1997) view that media representations are crafted rather than simply mirroring reality. This perspective highlights how cultural and social contexts play a crucial role in shaping the meanings of media texts. The research focuses on how filmmakers encode meaning in their works and how audiences decode it. The findings reveal that this approach enables a critical engagement with the films' content, allowing for the identification of how they interact with societal ideologies. Both films promote feminist themes by showcasing strong female characters who defy social norms and expectations placed on women, highlighting the importance of critically examining gendered expectations, and illustrating how media can positively influence societal views on gender equality.
