THE USING A.I TOOLS ON FOURTH-YEAR EFL LEARNER-AUTONOMY: A CASE AT NGUYEN TAT THANH UNIVERSITY

The purpose of this current study is to evaluate the extent to which the Application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools support Learner-Autonomy EFL learning among fourth-year students of Nguyen Tat Thanh University. Hence, it looks at the effectiveness of A.I in promoting learner-autonomy while evaluating the effectiveness of an A.I system on self-regulated learning behaviours. The results reveal mostly positive attitudes towards the use of A.I tools, mostly for developing skills and seeking resources. But the studies also showed some problems including over dependence on A.I, problems with use of the A.I types, doubts about critical thinking and social skills.  Anyways, the study established fills the literature gap on understanding A.I to help EFL learners. It provides recommendations for both teachers and developers of A.I as they point to valuable strategies to implement effective learning space that fosters language development and allows learners to be self-directed.
