Abstract
AI’s advancement can raise the quality of students' writing and increase the demand for educators to understand how to use AI approaches in classroom to achieve educational success. In this study, researchers conducted the use of digital tools to organize the writing of higher education students. This expanding phenomenon has initiated discussions regarding the influence of technologies on the academic field. The primary goal of this study is to investigate types of AI writing tools and their impacts on academic writing. This research was conducted through a qualitative method using a case study design regarding students' perspectives on AI writing tools to assist their academic writing. Data were analyzed through thematic analysis and interpretation of the interview transcripts. The participants were six Indonesian students with different educational backgrounds (undergraduate, graduate, and postgraduate). The findings showed that students had pros and cons to the use of AI. They argued that AI had positive views as helpful tools for checking spelling, grammar, paraphrasing and summarizing, translating, proofreading, citing, and managing references. Despite these benefits, there are concerns regarding whether ideas from users are collected into the AI database and possibly shared with other users due to copyright and plagiarism issues. This question became their concern when students wanted to convey ideas to AI. It was concluded that AI’s role in improving academic writing had a significant impact on generating ideas and revising students' writing. This research will be valuable for future investigations in exploring the utilization of AI in generating writing assignments.
