Abstract

With the vast applications that can be used for language learning, there are many research concern about the use of artificial intelligence based in language classroom. This research aims to explore students’ attitude toward the use of Speechace in speaking activity. This research uses qualitative research method which Students’ attitude can be explored deeply through comprehensive observation in the classroom activity such as how students’ response toward teacher elicitation by using chat boot. In addition, to confirm the finding from observation students thought need to be dig through interview. The subject of the study were 20 students of 8th grades MTS Alif lam miim Surabaya. The research revealed that students have positive attitude toward the Speechace in speaking activity. There are some reasons underlie this attitude such as content, features, and feasibility. In term of content, studnets assume that the contents of Speechace are relevant to their context either in school or home. In addition, Speechace are vary in features such as speaking, writing, listening or even writing. Last but not least, Speechace is user-friendly so students easily access features and contents even for the first visit of the application.
