Dodi Erwin Prasetyo

Abstract


Academic writing is by rehearsal. It requires further treating. Therefore, this paper aimed at finding to observe and analyze the integration of self-regulated learning for academic writing with AI mediation learning tools. This paper applied library research. Thus, the data were gained from scientific journal, proceeding, research articles, books, and so forth where those should be relevant with the topic discussed. The finding underscored two points. The first was that how integrate Artificial Intelligence AI with self-regulated learning a writing skills. The second, the benefits regarded on those integration. The recommendation was delivered in the pedagogic and future research aspects. For pedagogic, educators curriculum maker and AI experts should discuss together to set valuable curriculum, learning writing materials, instructions and so forth.  For future researcher, further researches should be conducted with the different study level, and different language skills to analyze comprehensively toward those integrations in order to gain wider perspectives.
