摘要
本文采用调查问卷法和归纳总结法,通过问卷调查了解英语专业学生对人工智能写作工具的使用情况及其写作兴趣的变化,依托近年来语言教学与二语习得领域的相关理论成果,并结合学生在课堂中使用 AI 写作工具的实际情况,为本次研究提供充分的理论依据与实践参考。笔者发现AI工具对提升英语专业学生的写作学习兴趣和动力具有显著的积极影响,例如人工智能能提供及时的个性化反馈,帮助学生解决写作中思路匮乏、表达错误等难题,降低写作焦虑,进而增强其写作的积极性和主动性。然而,在另一方面也存在着许多问题,有不少同学也在担心过度依赖AI工具写作会导致自己的思维固化,写作模式也根据AI的思维而逐渐标准化。

Abstract
This study employs questionnaire surveys and inductive analysis as its primary research methods. A questionnaire is administered to examine English majors’ adoption of AI-assisted writing tools and changes in their writing motivation. Grounded in relevant theories of language teaching and second language acquisition, and integrated with practical scenarios of students’ in-class use of AI writing tools, this research establishes a solid theoretical foundation and empirical basis for the investigation. The author finds that reveal that AI writing tools exert a significantly positive effect on enhancing English majors’ interest and motivation to write. By providing timely and personalized feedback, AI helps students overcome common difficulties including idea shortages and linguistic errors, alleviates writing anxiety, and thereby strengthens their enthusiasm and initiative in writing. Nevertheless, notable challenges have also been identified. Many students express concern that over-reliance on AI for writing may result in cognitive rigidity, leading to a gradual “standardization” of their writing styles in accordance with AI-generated patterns.
Key words: AI writing tools; English writing competence; Writing interest; Motivation
