| Abstract: |
The rapid advancement of generative artificial intelligence has begun to influence various aspects of education, including language learning and academic writing instruction. Among these emerging technologies, ChatGPT has attracted considerable attention due to its ability to generate coherent written responses and provide interactive feedback. While some educators express concerns regarding academic integrity and students’ overreliance on AI-generated content, others highlight the potential of such tools to support language learning when integrated through appropriate pedagogical strategies.
This study investigates the integration of ChatGPT into English as a Foreign Language (EFL) writing instruction with the aim of enhancing students’ writing performance and critical thinking skills. The research was conducted in a General English course at Thai Nguyen University of Economics and Business Administration in Vietnam with 62 first-year students whose proficiency level corresponded approximately to A2 according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR).
A classroom-based mixed-methods design was employed. Quantitative data were collected through pre-test and post-test writing assessments, while qualitative data were obtained from student perception questionnaires and classroom observations. During a twelve-week instructional intervention, ChatGPT was used as a scaffold to support brainstorming, sentence construction, and revision processes. Students were also encouraged to critically analyze AI-generated responses rather than accept them uncritically.
The results indicate a statistically significant improvement in students’ writing performance after the intervention. In addition, students reported positive perceptions of ChatGPT as a tool that supported idea generation, language accuracy, and writing revision. Classroom observations further revealed that guided interaction with AI-generated texts promoted discussion and reflective learning. These findings suggest that generative AI tools can function as cognitive scaffolds that support both writing development and critical engagement when integrated thoughtfully into EFL writing instruction
