Abstract
This study investigated the perceptions and utilization of online tools in writing by Korean language learners. A survey questionnaire was distributed, asking learners about their attitudes towards writing, the online tools they use, their purposes for using these tools, and their satisfaction levels. The survey received 100 responses, with 50 learners studying in Korea and 50 studying in the US. The results indicated that the Korean language learners primarily use machine translators to look up the words and expressions. While there were no statistically significant differences between the student groups studying in Korea and the US, students in the US reported higher satisfaction levels with tool accessibility. Additionally, learners who were more open to trying new technologies were more satisfied with using online tools in their writing. Lastly, satisfaction levels in using machine translators or generative AIs did not show statistically significant differences between the student groups, but students in the US expressed a higher willingness to continue using these tools. This study contributes to the field by analyzing learners’ use of online tools and highlighting the growing need to integrate these tools in future classrooms.
