Abstract

This study will focus on how Chat PDF AI can be incorporated with the philosophy of Tri Hita Karana in order to enhance reading comprehension among the students in a critical reading course. Tri Hita Karana reflects the concepts of harmony and balance in the three basic relationships, i.e. humans and God (parhyangan), humans and fellow human beings (pawongan) and humans and nature (palemahan). In this study a sequential explanatory design was employed with mixed methods whereby 20 respondents were sampled using quantitative data and 5 students were sampled using qualitative data who were students in the Department of English Education, Dwijendra University. The results were predominantly positive in the affective area because 86.7 percent of students had their attitudes towards critical reading improved, 80 percent said that it was easier to read a text, and 70 percent said that they were confident in difficult material. This integration enhanced the affective and cognitive motivational dimension qualitatively as 66.7% of them said their motivation increased and 80 percent of the respondents enjoyed the critical reading integration exercise. The three major themes that were found with the use of qualitative methods included affective domain, learning, and ease of use and accessibility. The fusion between the local philosophy and the AI technology and culturally responsive pedagogy highlighted the work.
