Abstract

The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools in education has transformed the landscape of academic writing, providing students innovative support mechanisms for improving their writing skills. This study investigated the types of AI-tools utilized by students, their perceptions of these tools, and the impact on their self-efficacy in academic writing within the English Education Study Program at Sriwijaya University. Utilizing a qualitative approach, data were collected from seventh-semester students through questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. The findings revealed that students frequently use AI-tools such as ChatGPT, Grammarly, and QuillBot to enhance grammatical accuracy, vocabulary, and writing clarity. While students generally viewed these tools as accessible and helpful for providing immediate feedback and reducing anxiety, their motivation and engagement with AI-assisted learning were more neutral. The findings indicated that AI-tools enhance writing proficiency and self-efficacy by simplifying tasks and offering support, yet students remain cautious about over-reliance and emphasize the importance of maintaining independent critical thinking. Importantly, students recognized that AI-tools serve primarily as scaffolding to support their writing efforts rather than as replacements for their own critical thinking and responsibility. These insights underscored the importance of using AI-tools thoughtfully in academic contexts and developing pedagogical strategies that promote both effective tool usage and the cultivation of independent writing skills. The implications informed educators, policymakers, and technology developers about optimizing AI usage to support student achievement in academic writing. Keywords: students’ perception; AI-tools; self-efficacy; academic writing.
