Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) has transformed how students understand and acquire knowledge in their educational activities. This research aims to explore how students confront AI challenges and propose solutions to enhance learning and communication. Utilizing quantitative methods or case studies, the findings highlight an urgent need for technological improvements in student education. Most respondents believe in AI; however, some are skeptical about its accuracy and impact on their critical skills. Ethical concerns and plagiarism related to AI are significant, with language barriers affecting users' understanding of new technologies. Respondents tend to choose positive options, indicating optimism but facing difficulties in language comprehension that need to be addressed. The study concludes that students' understanding and skills in using AI for learning are still low. It is recommended to develop training interventions focused on AI comprehension and technical skills, as well as educational policies that effectively support AI integration.

Abstract

This study explores the mastery of the simple present and present progressive tenses among second-semester Counseling Guidance students at Universitas Prof. Dr. Hazairin, SH, Bengkulu. The purpose of the study is to assess students ability to use these tenses correctly in both written and spoken forms. A mixed-methods approach was employed, consisting of a grammar test to evaluate students' written proficiency and structured interviews to assess their spoken usage. The results revealed that while students showed relatively high proficiency in using the simple present tense, their performance with the present progressive tense was weaker. Common errors identified included confusion between the two tenses, omission of auxiliary verbs, and incorrect verb forms. These findings suggest that students have a solid grasp of the simple present tense but face difficulties with the present progressive tense, largely due to the absence of similar tense forms in their native language. The study concludes that targeted grammar instruction, particularly focused on the present progressive tense, is essential. It also recommends incorporating task-based learning and form-focused instruction to enhance grammatical accuracy. The findings offer valuable insights into tense acquisition among Indonesian EFL learners and have implications for improving English grammar teaching practices at the university level.

Abstract

Reading skills are crucial for elementary school students, especially in English learning. Students can understand the text if they have good reading skills. Therefore, teachers should provide appropriate strategies to improve students' reading skills. The purpose of this study was to find out what strategies English teachers used in improving students' reading skills in a private elementary school in Ngabang. This research used a descriptive qualitative method. This research was conducted at SDS Alfa Omega Ngabang. The subjects in this study were two English teachers who taught in class 5. The data collection instruments in this study used observation and interview. Data analysis used data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing and verification. The results showed that there were five strategies used by English teachers: previewing text, guessing word meaning, skimming, scanning, and reading aloud. The reading aloud strategy is the most frequently used strategy by teachers at SDS Alfa Omega Ngabang because teachers feel that this strategy can train students' pronunciation, make students active, and increase students' motivation and interest in reading. It is suggested that teachers can choose strategies for teaching reading skills based on the students' ability level and education level.
