Students’ Experiences In Using Grammarly Application : A Case Study
Keywords:
grammarly, technological tools, written communication, academic writing, student experiencesAbstract
ABSTRACT
This case study explores students' experiences with Grammarly, an advanced technological tool for enhancing written communication skills. Through qualitative interviews with students of varying academic levels, the study investigates the benefits and challenges associated with Grammarly usage. Results indicate that while Grammarly significantly improves writing quality and effectiveness, students encounter difficulties in understanding and implementing its suggestions, particularly in complex grammatical contexts. Contextual limitations are also observed, notably in scientific writing or programming. Nevertheless, effective integration of Grammarly into the writing process is emphasized as crucial for enhancing academic writing proficiency. Recommendations are provided for educators to support students in optimizing Grammarly alongside other writing resources.
Keywords: Grammarly, technological tools, written communication, academic writing, student experiences.
