Abstract

The research aimed to identify the effect of an English language program based on the

DeepSeek AI-powered tool on the development of secondary school students' EFL writing

skills. The main writing skills were delimited to analytical and argumentative writing skills:

writing form, forming ideas, organization of ideas, and mechanics of writing. The program

utilized the DeepSeek AI-powered tool. Instruments of the study included a checklist of the

analytical and argumentative writing skills, a DeepSeek AI-powered tool app questionnaire, a

DeepSeek AI-powered tool app program, an EFL analytical and argumentative writing skills

test, and a writing rubric. The study followed the one-group quasi-experimental design with its

pre and post-testing procedure over the participants (N.21) randomly selected from first-year

secondary school students. Results of the study showed that there were significant mean

differences between participants' scores in the pre and post-testing of EFL analytical and

argumentative writing skills at a significance level (0.01). The research recommended using the

DeepSeek tool in EFL writing skills. It also recommended integrating further AI technologies

in the instruction of EFL writing skills.
