Disa Evawani Lestari

Abstract


Along with the era of rapid advancement in the performance of Artificial Intelligence, there have been intense discussions and debates among educationists about the future of human teachers and AI teachers. It is intriguing to listen to students’ perspectives on the roles they expect from their teachers, especially in learning English subjects, when abundant resources are available online at their fingertips. To serve that purpose, 160 students were recruited as research participants. Data were collected through questionnaires and interviews. The results indicated that students perceive their teachers as someone to guide their learning by providing good online resources and immediate feedback.
