Abstract
Google Translate Use in Intensive English Programs
- Widespread but Informal Use
- Google Translate is widely used by English as Second Language learners, but often privately and without explicit classroom discussion.
- Benefits and Challenges
- Students rely on Google Translate in different ways during writing, yet little is known about how they use it in real time.
- Critical Research Gap
- Most studies examine Google Translate's outcomes, but very few explore how students actually use it during real-time writing.
