The Impact of Artificial Intelligence Aids on Students’ Reading and Writing Skills: An Exploration of the Balance between Self-Directed Learning and Dependency

本研究聚焦人工智能(AI)工具在教育领域的应用，特别是对学生读写能力及自主学习能力的影响。通过问卷调查法，研究收集了300名不同年级和专业背景学生的数据，重点分析了AI工具在写作和阅读中的使用情况及其对学生的写作能力、依赖性、独立思考和创造力的作用。研究结果显示，AI工具在提升学生基础写作技能(如语法、拼写和句式结构)方面效果显著，但在创意写作和深度思考方面表现有限。此外，学生普遍对AI工具产生依赖，导致在没有AI辅助时写作能力下降，且独立思考和创造力受到抑制。基于此，研究建议教育者应合理引导学生使用AI工具，平衡技术应用与自主学习能力的培养，以促进学生深度学习与创新思维的发展。未来研究可进一步探索AI工具的优化及其长期影响，为个性化教学和学生全面发展提供支持。This study examines the application of AI tools in education, focusing on their impact on students’ literacy and self-directed learning. Data from 300 students across various grades and disciplines were collected via questionnaires, analyzing the effects of AI tools on writing skills, dependency, critical thinking, and creativity. Results show that while AI tools improve basic writing skills like grammar and sentence structure, they have limited benefits for creative writing and higher-order thinking. Additionally, over-reliance on AI tools reduces students’ writing ability without assistance and stifles independent thinking and creativity. The study recommends that educators guide students to use AI tools judiciously, balancing technological proficiency with independent learning to foster deeper cognitive engagement and innovation. Future research should explore optimizing AI tools and their long-term effects, providing support for personalized education and holistic student development.
