Abstract

Presenting concepts to elementary school pupils is crucial. It is to improve their capacity to exchange ideas with one another. Fifteen elementary school pupils in a public school encountered difficulties in accomplishing this objective. They voluntarily enrolled in a treatment class to deal with these shortcomings. The teacher began by teaching basic bilingual grammar using the book's supplied vocabulary. After finishing the lesson, the instructor invited the class to complete comic strip activities. They completed the assignments in small groups. They used speaking practice and peer teaching based on the discussed content to make the activity meaningful. To get the teacher's opinion, the pupils then displayed their text and audio creations on the screen. A qualitative analysis of the information acquired throughout the teaching and learning process was then conducted. It has been determined that comic strip techniques and communicative grammar aid in the improvement of primary pupils' speaking abilities. Teachers can use it to teach related subjects, which is beneficial. Additionally, it prompts other researchers to conduct more in-depth observations on similar topics.

Abstract

This study explores the integration of the Gemini AI model as a "morphological engine" to enhance academic vocabulary acquisition among university students learning English as a foreign language. By employing a qualitative case study of 25 students, the research investigates the efficacy of "Lexical Deconstruction"—systematically breaking down complex Greco-Latinate terms into their constituent roots to bridge the gap between basic communication and scholarly proficiency. Results demonstrate that this AI-mediated workflow increases root retention by 65% and significantly reduces cognitive overload, particularly in STEM fields where jargon functions as a compound language. Crucially, the process of deconstructing and reintegrating vocabulary fostered a sense of "lexical ownership," leading to a 40% reduction in plagiarism compared to traditional translation methods. For teachers, this study offers a scalable, student-led framework to transform AI from a text generator into a cognitive scaffold that promotes linguistic autonomy. For researchers, it provides a methodological template for analyzing human-AI interaction through the lens of etymological genealogy. Ultimately, the findings suggest that mastering the recurring building blocks of English enables students to move from passive decoding to active participation in global academic discourse, ensuring intentionality and integrity in their scholarly voice.
