One way to address this challenge is to implement Google Translate with Grammarly, the AI post-editing tool, in Thai EFL writing classes. This study assesses the integration of Google Translate and Grammarly in EFL writing classes to improve writing skills conducted at a government school in Chiang Mai with 18 tenth-grade ArtsEnglish students. The research employed the pretest-posttest design, collecting data through writing tests, questionnaires, and instructional periods. The findings indicated that students faced 11 translation errors, namely noun agreement and word choice, with punctuation being the least prevalent. After training with Google Translate and Grammarly concurrently, they showed significant improvements in writing performance, with higher post-test scores of 55.43%(p \u003C 0.05) . In addition, most participants reported positive attitudes toward the training due to its effectiveness in improving their writing skills |\n\n\n|  | and confidence in English. Educators gained valuable insights into implementing a translanguaging approach in student interactions when applying the instructional periods. However, the study revealed limitations such as small sample sizes and technological challenges. Further research should explore the long-term effects of AI-driven instruction on enhancing English language skills across diverse educational settings.\u003Cbr>Keywords: Google Translate, Grammarly, machine translation post-editing, English writing ability, EFL Thai upper secondary students |\n| --- | --- |\n\nIntroduction  \nImproving aspects of life stems from the need to overcome obstacles such as language barriers since the age of discovery. In today’s interconnected world, translation plays a key role in bridging communication gaps between different linguistic and cultural contexts. Translation involves transferring text from a source language (SL) to a target language (TL) (Hatim, 2004) . Relying on statistical models, bilingual dictionaries, and sets of grammar rules, machine translation began to take shape in the 1990s (Bowker, 2021) . Many linguists and scientists developed computer software as a universal translator that promised to remove cross-language challenges and advance computational linguistics. The idea of machine translation for language pairs existed solely within the scope of imagination until the Google organization made it into reality and emerged as a leading provider of language translation","cbCainRqKDbUiWbM","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainRqKDbUiWbM","pdf",479788,32,"English","# ABSTRACT\n# Introduction","[{\"question\":\"What challenge does the study target for Thai upper secondary students?\",\"answer\":\"It targets the difficulty of correcting Thai-to-English translation errors produced by machine translation outputs in student writing.\"},{\"question\":\"How was the Google Translate and Grammarly intervention implemented?\",\"answer\":\"Students used Google Translate and Grammarly concurrently as an AI post-editing support during EFL writing instruction, within a pretest-posttest framework.\"},{\"question\":\"What did the findings show about students’ writing performance?\",\"answer\":\"Students improved significantly after training, with higher post-test scores and most reported gains tied to better writing accuracy and confidence in English.\"}]","Implementing the Use of Google Translate with Grammarly to Enhance Thai Upper Secondary School Students’ English Writing Ability | PDF",1792036810,81]
