Machine translation (MT) practice and activity development in education are possible when students with diverse backgrounds contribute to helping define how MT can best be used for language learning. This study employed a questionnaire based on an adapted version of the technology acceptance model (TAM) to gain perspective on the perceptions,…

In an increasingly globalized world, translation technologies are critical in facilitating language comprehension and translation performance, especially among college EFL students. Despite their potential, the factors impacting their actual use in tertiary education remain underexplored. This study employs the UTAUT2 model to identify…

Multiple studies have shown that language learners and other students undertaking postsecondary studies in an additional language (L2) consult digital translation tools to complete course-related work despite general disapproval of their use by instructors. Significant improvements in the accuracy of machine translation (MT) along with their…

This article analyses a specific strategy designed to include generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) tools in students' written assignments. While we recognise that GenAI tools represent a challenge for teachers in terms of their classroom use and the development of digital literacy among students, we believe that banning them is not a viable…

This research study aims to explore students' perceptions and reflections on the effectiveness of project-based learning (PBL) in a Thai-English translation course in the EFL context. The participants of this study included forty-nine students who were enrolled in the Thai-English translation course. The participants were asked to produce a…

Machine Translation (MT) is an engine that accelerates language learning, design creation, and contemporary comprehension of many areas of language and communication based on our qualitative understanding of secondary resources. Arab students regard Arabic as a source language that is afterwards translated into English texts and words in order to…
