keywords: academic writing, EFL students’, paraphrasing, perception, quillbot.
note: This study aims to investigate students' perceptions and identify obstacles in using
QuillBot as a paraphrasing tool to assist academic writing. Students' perceptions
were analyzed through physical and psychological dimensions, while the obstacles
encountered included technical aspects and the adverse effects of using QuillBot.
The method used was a qualitative descriptive case study, with data collected
through observation, a closed questionnaire on a five-level Likert scale, and indepth interviews. The questionnaire consisted of 14 questions covering perceptions
and obstacles. The responses were then analyzed descriptively using frequency,
percentage, and average scores. The findings showed that students generally had a
positive perception of QuillBot. About 96.6% of students found the tool easy to use,
and 93.3% felt it increased their confidence and comfort in writing. However,
obstacles remain, as 86.6% of respondents experienced access limitations, mainly
due to the limited features of the free version. In addition, 63.3% of students
reported issues such as over-reliance on the tool, leading to laziness in manually
paraphrasing. In conclusion, although QuillBot significantly improves the
efficiency of academic writing for EFL students, users should supplement its use
with manual revision to ensure accuracy and maintain academic integrity.
