PENERAPAN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE DENGAN METODE PjBL UNTUK MENGANALISIS KEEFEKTIFAN KALIMAT DALAM TEKS BAHASA INDONESIA

Abstract

The ability to analyze sentence effectiveness is an essential component of academic writing competence, particularly in producing sentences that are clear, logical, concise, and coherent. Difficulties in identifying structural errors, inappropriate word choices, and incoherent ideas indicate the need for instructional approaches that integrate editing practice, feedback, and critical evaluation. This study aims to analyze the implementation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) integrated with Project-Based Learning (PjBL) in teaching sentence effectiveness analysis in Indonesian texts. The study employed a quantitative approach with a one-group pretest-posttest design involving 32 university students. The learning process followed six stages of PjBL, with AI used to assist in identifying problems related to sentence structure, diction, conciseness, coherence, and logicality. Students subsequently evaluated AI-generated suggestions based on Indonesian language rules and produced annotated texts and revised versions. The descriptive analysis showed that the mean score increased from 71.34 on the pretest to 84.49 on the posttest, representing an average gain of 13.15 points. Thirty-one students improved their scores, while one student experienced a decrease. A paired-samples t-test indicated a statistically significant difference between pretest and posttest scores, (t(31)=11.06), (p<0.001). These findings indicate a measurable improvement in student performance following the implementation of AI-integrated PjBL. From a pedagogical perspective, project-based activities and the verification of AI-generated suggestions may encourage students to develop editing skills and linguistic reasoning. This study concludes that integrating AI and PjBL has the potential to support the teaching of sentence effectiveness analysis while maintaining students’ critical judgment as a central component of the editing process.
