Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies have been widely adopted as tools for academic writing, sparking interest in the factors that influence their adoption. However, existing research has predominantly focused on cognitive factors, such as perceived usefulness and ease of use, while giving insufficient attention to emotional motivations (e.g., perceived enjoyment, emotional engagement) in students' use of AI tools. This gap has led to a somewhat oversimplified or incomplete understanding of the factors influencing students' adoption of AI technologies. This study constructs a theoretical framework based on the Hedonic Information System Acceptance Model (HISAM) and the Technology...

El español académico, ya sea en su versión nativa como no nativa, requiere una descripción teórica y prescriptiva que - por razones de necesidad, en la alfabetización académica y por su condición de nicho económico, en la acción editorial-, tiene buenos y asentados precedentes en los países de lengua española. Nada comparable con la tradición del inglés, como es fácil suponer. Paralelamente, es difícil disponer de material integrado en corpus y mucho menos en corpus no oportunísticos, con selección del ámbito de circulación.

This study examines the impact of structured instruction on artificial intelligence (AI) use for improving academic writing in a non-English context. Participants included first-year students enrolled in a teacher education program, including some with disabilities. Three writing tasks were designed: typed essay, AI-based essay, and a critical AI use essay. The repeated measures analyses revealed that targeted AI integration supported overall writing quality, as indicated by improvements in language use, structure, and content. Additionally, students felt more confident when familiarizing themselves with effective prompt strategies. Students with learning difficulties exhibited the most...

The rapid development of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) tools (e.g. ChatGPT) has elicited mixed reactions among English language instructors and learners. This study explores how first-year students in an English for Academic Purposes (EAP) course at a Hong Kong university perceive GenAI and traditional grammar-checking tools (e.g. Grammarly, MS Word). We employed a qualitative methodology grounded in the interpretivist paradigm, conducting semi-structured interviews with 14 students. The findings revealed the students perceived GenAI tools to be more comprehensive and authoritative, as they provide detailed explanations and contextual insights that enhance language proficiency...

This study addresses the gap between the theoretical framework of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) literacy and its practical development, by investigating how university students in the humanities acquire and refine GenAI-related knowledge, skills, and attitudes. Through a 16-week intervention structured into three progressive phases, 16 students engaged with multiple GenAI tools while developing competencies in research and academic writing. The data collection included structured GenAI dialogues, periodic questionnaires, reflective assignments, and in-depth interviews. The findings revealed three interconnected dimensions of GenAI literacy development. Students internalized and...

El objetivo del presente artículo consiste en identificar la pertinencia de las tareas de escritura seleccionadas para un examen de español con fines académicos y también en identificar aquellas variables intrínsecas a la tarea seleccionada que favorecen o no la interacción que se da con el examinado. El estudio se desarrolló en dos fases: pilotaje y primera aplicación del examen. En total participaron 59 estudiantes no hispanohablantes de grado y de posgrado. Los resultados demuestran que las tareas discretas propuestas permiten que los estudiantes empleen las habilidades de escritura indispensables para comunicar el conocimiento escrito dentro del contexto universitario, mas no aquellas...

This study examined how university students engaged with generative AI as a strategic learning resource in academic writing tasks, with particular attention to the role of AI anxiety. Using an explanatory sequential mixed-methods design, survey data and post-task written reflections were collected from 107 university students. The quantitative analysis examined the relationships among AI anxiety, evaluative capacity, ethical awareness, and regulatory engagement, while the qualitative analysis explored how students described verifying, revising, selectively adopting, or rejecting AI-generated content during actual academic writing tasks. The findings showed that AI anxiety was positively...

The rise of generative AI has been a major disruptive force in academia. Academics are concerned about its impact on student learning. Students can use generative AI technologies, such as ChatGPT, to complete many academic tasks on their behalf. This could lead to poor academic outcomes as students use ChatGPT to complete assessments, rather than engaging with the learning material. One particularly vulnerable academic activity is academic writing. This paper reports the results of an active learning intervention where ChatGPT was used by students to write an academic paper. The resultant papers were then analysed and critiqued by students to highlight the weaknesses of such AI-produced...

As generative AI (GenAI) transforms how students learn and work, higher education must rethink its assessment strategies. This paper introduces a conceptual framework, DRIVE, and a taxonomy to help educators evaluate student learning based on their interactions with GenAI chatbots. Although existing research maps student-GenAI interactions to writing outcomes, practice-oriented tools for assessing evidence of domain-specific learning beyond general AI literacy skills or general writing skills remain underexplored. We propose that GenAI interactions can serve as a valid indicator of learning by revealing how students steer the interaction (Directive Reasoning Interaction) and articulate...

Este estudio presenta un análisis lingüístico-descriptivo de 18 ensayos escritos por hablantes de español como lengua heredada (ELH) sobre la función socio-política del corrido méxico-americano. Investigaciones previas (Montaño-Harmon, 1991; Spicer-Escalante M. L., 2002) han caracterizado el repertorio lógico-retórico de los hablantes de ELH como limitado a la adición de información, al uso de la experiencia personal y la información de dominio público. Sin embargo, los resultados de este estudio sugieren que el espectro de recursos lógico-retóricos empleados por los hablantes de ELH incluye una variedad de estrategias argumentativas valoradas en un registro académico escrito. Me concentro...
