Abstract

The rapid advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has increasingly influenced academic writing practices, particularly through the use of chatbots by higher education students in writing final papers. However, concerns remain regarding their impact on students’ creativity, originality, and writing quality. This study investigated the perceptions of 53 higher education students from different universities toward the use of chatbots in writing English final papers. Using a quantitative survey design, data were collected through a questionnaire covering five aspects: clarity, evidence-based writing, structure, cohesion and coherence, and referencing. The findings revealed generally positive perceptions of chatbot use. Students reported that chatbots helped improve clarity by reducing ambiguity and enhancing vocabulary choice. They also supported better organization, logical idea development, and stronger cohesion and coherence through grammar correction and improved argument flow. However, students expressed caution regarding the accuracy and credibility of AI-generated references and evidence-based content. Overall, chatbots were perceived as useful supplementary tools that can enhance academic writing when used responsibly. The study highlights the importance of AI literacy and critical evaluation skills in higher education.

Abstract

Background: The integration of  Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) into English language education has transformed writing instruction, yet empirical comparisons of its tools remain limited. Purpose: This study investigates the comparative effect of Grammarly and ProWritingAid on EFL students’ academic writing skills. Method: A quasi-experimental design was employed with three intact groups (n=37): Grammarly (n=13), ProWritingAid (n=11), and electronic dictionary control (n=13). Writing pre-test and post-test data were analyzed using the non-parametric Kruskal-Wallis test due to violations of normality and homogeneity assumptions. Results and Discussion: A significant difference was found among groups (χ²=10.544, p=0.005). ProWritingAid yielded the highest mean rank (24.73), followed by Grammarly (21.81), and electronic dictionary (11.35). Post-hoc Mann-Whitney tests confirmed significant gains for both AI tools over the control (p<0.05), but no significant difference between Grammarly and ProWritingAid (p=0.792). Conclusions and Implications: Both AI tools effectively enhance writing skills, with ProWritingAid showing slight superiority in stylistic and structural feedback.
