Speaker

Phat Tran Tan (Nguyen Tat Thanh University)

Description

The study explores the effectiveness and accessibility of AI-based language models, particularly
ChatGPT, Gemini, and Grok, in enhancing Binh Duong University students’ English reading, writing,
listening, and speaking skills. By analyzing students’ perceptions through qualitative interviews, the
research aims to assess the usability, effectiveness, and impact of these AI tools on academic tasks.
The research employs a mixed-method approach, integrating thematic analysis to identify key
patterns in student experiences. Findings reveal that students perceive ChatGPT, Gemini, and Grok
as highly user-friendly, accessible, and effective for improving reading and writing quality, grammar
accuracy, vocabulary, and communicative skill enhancement. Many participants report increased
confidence in their reading and writing abilities and appreciate the immediate feedback provided by
these tools. Additionally, the study highlights the role of AI in reducing students’ dependence on
lecturers for writing corrections and fostering greater autonomy in learning. Future research should
explore the long-term effects of AI-assisted learning, considering its impact on students’ cognitive
skills, creativity, and academic integrity.
Key words: AI tools, ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok, Students’ perspectives
