Abstract: This study explores the impact of generative artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled instruction on critical thinking in English essay writing among 1,050 first-year English majors across four colleges. Pedagogical strategies, including facilitating critical responses and emphasizing real-world application, are identified to enhance generative AI’s impact. Both qualitative and quantitative analyses reveal significant post-intervention improvements in critical thinking skills.
