Pengaruh Penggunaan Kamus AI pada Mata Kuliah Bahasa Inggris bagi Mahasiswa Kampus Politeknik Nasional Denpasar

Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a computer-based simulation of human intelligence designed to facilitate various aspects of life, particularly in foreign language acquisition. In the globalized world recently, the requirement for English proficiency is highlighted, especially in vocabulary acquisition and good communication skills. AI has emerged as one of the driving forces behind the 4.0 Industrial Revolution, making English language learning easier with AI as a translation machine (AI-based dictionary) for first-year students. The sample of this study consists of 24 first-semester students from three majors. A mixed-methods approach was used to collect data in this study, meaning the researcher collected and analysed quantitative data obtained from questionnaires and test results. This study aims to measure the effectiveness of AI in English language learning and to explore the use of AI-based technology in enhancing the communication skills of English language learners, including speaking, listening, reading, and writing.
