Treffer: A comparative analysis of academic literacy support models: Impacts on self-regulated learning (SRL) for an international student in Australia.

The advent of artificial intelligence (AI) has sparked significant debate regarding optimal implementation strategies, with many discussions relying on assumptions that have not been thoroughly tested. This study aims to move beyond speculation by critically examining the role of AI tools, specifically ChatGPT PDF, in supporting self-regulated learning (SRL) in the context of academic literacy. Situated within the process of composing a master's thesis in education in Australia, this investigation adopted a qualitative, self-reflective research design to compare the effectiveness of AI tools with traditional university-based academic support models. The findings suggest that while AI tools like ChatGPT PDF can enhance SRL through real-time feedback and increased accessibility, they also have limitations in providing deeper cognitive support. To optimise their effectiveness, AI tools should be integrated within a comprehensive framework that promotes self-efficacy, metacognitive reflection and a deeper understanding of academic literacy. This approach ensures that AI tools not only aid task completion but also foster transformative learning and independent thinking. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
