Enhancing English Competence Based on TOEFL Result with the Use of the Expert System with Forward Chaining Method

KnE Engineering / Jakarta International Conference on Multidisciplinary Studies towards Creative Industries (JICOMS) / Pages 88–94

Abstract

This article delves into a progressive approach for enhancing English competence based on TOEFL results through the utilization of an expert system employing the forward chaining method. As a benchmark for English proficiency, TOEFL necessitates a strategic and personalized approach to address individual weaknesses. The proposed expert system analyzes TOEFL performance, identifies specific areas of improvement, and tailors learning pathways accordingly. By employing forward chaining, the system can effectively guide learners through a logical progression of targeted exercises, tailored study plans, and recommended resources to fortify identified language skill deficits. This article sheds light on how this innovative integration of technology and pedagogy can significantly bolster English language competence for TOEFL success and the overall English language proficiency.
