INDONESIAN LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE EDUCATION STUDENTS' PERSPECTIVES ON AUTONOMOUS LEARNERS IN THE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE ERA

Abstract

Autonomous students are expected to improve the quality of education and achieve educational goals. Therefore, research on the level of student independence is considered important to provide input in the development of educational programs. Artificial intelligence (AI) is identified as an important element in this context, contributing to the development of educational programs by providing adaptive and personalized learning resources. This research uses a quantitative approach with a type of survey research used to view survey results regarding autonomous student styles, with data collected through questionnaires. The research population included all students of the Indonesian Language and Literature Education Study Program, with simple random sampling as the sample. The data analysis technique is descriptive, with percentage calculations. The author concludes that there are significant differences between the planning, process, and evaluation stages, especially at the evaluation stage, which is still below 50%. This shows the need for the role of educators or lecturers in helping students evaluate independent learning outcomes. However, the use of artificial intelligence was rated positively by students, indicating that this technology can be an effective tool for supporting independent learning. This research makes an important contribution to the understanding of learner autonomy.
