Using Artificial Intelligence for Essay Writing

Abstract

This study hopes to bring insights for researchers and educators in using artificial intelligence for essay writing through a systematic review on the use of AI in writing for the past 10 years. Although Artificial Intelligence has long existed in other fields such as medicine, engineering, journalism, and forensic analysis, it has only made a great impact in the education field after the emergence of ChatGPT. Generative Artificial Intelligence is seen as a tool that can assist teachers and students in academics such as generating ideas, evaluating essays, storytelling, and providing feedback. It has even been considered as the co-author in students’ manuscripts and essays. However, there are still lack of studies on the usage of Artificial Intelligence in developing students’ essay writing performance. Thus, this study hopes to enlighten researchers and educators in using Artificial Intelligence tools in improving students’ essay writing performance. This study will provide insights for researchers and teachers on the different types of artificial intelligence tools that can be used in teaching essay writing. It also provides areas that researchers can focus on since majority of the studies are conducted overseas and only two studies are carried out in Malaysia so far. Hopefully, this study will provide useful information for language teachers in using artificial intelligence tools in teaching essay writing to students.
