Abstract

This research investigates the intricate relationship between English language proficiency and programming skills within the domain of computer engineering education. In an increasingly globalized world, where English serves as a lingua franca in the field of technology, the correlation between language competence and technical aptitude becomes pivotal. This study employs a mixed-methods approach, encompassing both quantitative and qualitative analyses, to comprehensively explore this relationship. Quantitative data are collected through standardized English language proficiency tests and programming assessments, while qualitative insights are derived from interviews and surveys among computer engineering students. The findings shed light on the nuanced interplay between English language proficiency and programming skills, uncovering potential implications for curriculum design, pedagogical strategies, and student support services in computer engineering education. By elucidating the dynamics of this relationship, this research aims to inform educators, policymakers, and stakeholders in optimizing educational practices to better equip computer engineering students for success in the global technological landscape.

Abstract

The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) has brought new opportunities to the field of education, especially in language learning. One of the most widely discussed tools is ChatGPT, an AI-based platform capable of generating human-like responses through natural language processing. This study explores how vocational students perceive the use of ChatGPT as a learning companion and examines how effective it is in supporting their English writing skills. Using a descriptive quantitative method, data were collected from 40 students in the Computer Engineering program at Politeknik Unggulan Cipta Mandiri. The results show that most students view ChatGPT as easy to use and helpful, particularly in improving sentence structure, enriching vocabulary, and correcting grammar. While the tool was generally well-received, some students still faced difficulties in crafting prompts that lead to accurate responses. These findings suggest that, with proper guidance and ethical training, ChatGPT can be meaningfully integrated into vocational English learning to enhance student engagement and writing performance.

Abstract

The global nature of technology and information exchange has made English proficiency an essential skill for students in technical fields, including Computer Engineering. This study investigates the correlation between English language proficiency and academic performance, particularly coding skills, among Computer Engineering students. The research aims to determine whether a higher command of English contributes to better understanding and application of coding concepts, leading to improved academic outcomes. Utilizing a mixed-methods approach, this study collects data from both language proficiency assessments and academic performance records, with qualitative insights gathered from student interviews and coding task observations. The findings highlight that English proficiency, especially in technical vocabulary and comprehension, has a positive influence on coding abilities and overall academic success. This research underscores the importance of integrating English language development within technical curricula to enhance students' competency in globalized technical environments.
