<![CDATA[The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in education has transformed the academic landscape, offering new tools to enhance students’ writing and reasoning skills. This study investigates the effectiveness of ChatGPT in supporting logical reasoning in writing among university students. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach, incorporating surveys and semi-structured interviews with 15 students from the English Education Program at Universitas Islam Madura. The study examines how ChatGPT influences argument structuring, idea generation, and clarity in writing, while also identifying potential challenges and limitations. The findings indicate that 93.3% of students perceive ChatGPT as beneficial, particularly in improving logical coherence and content organization. Students reported that ChatGPT helps develop structured arguments, refine transitions, and overcome writing difficulties. However, significant limitations were identified, including the lack of proper citations, occasional inaccuracies, and the risk of over-reliance on AI-generated content. The study highlights the importance of critical evaluation when using ChatGPT, emphasizing that AI should be a supplementary tool rather than a primary knowledge source. These results contribute to ongoing discussions on AI’s role in higher education, underscoring the need for AI literacy training and ethical AI integration in academic writing. The study suggests that future research should explore long-term impacts of AI-assisted learning, real-time citation integration, and AI’s role in fostering independent critical thinking, ensuring AI remains a constructive force in education. ]]>
