What makes this introduction effective?
The introduction by Hua Tran Thanh Truc is highly effectivebecause it follows a very logical “funnel” path, starting with global AI trends and narrowing down to the specific speaking needs of students at the IMAP center.

How are the background, problem statement, research questions, and significance presented?
The chosen introduction is highly effective due to its logical progression and comprehensive scope. First, it sets the stage by illustrating the big picture: how globalization and technology—especially Artificial Intelligence (AI)—are now a natural part of learning a new language. It makes the topic feel current and important. Secondly, it focuses on a specific problem: speaking skills. Since speaking is a key part of mastering a language, the introduction explains why the Cake app is being used at the IMAP center. To make the results easy to measure, the study aligns the app's use with standardized benchmarks, such as IELTS, TOEFL, and TOEIC. This gives the study a clear goal. Furthermore, the introduction is well-supported. It includes expert citations to give the topic more weight and lists two clear research questions. Finally, the author highlights the practical significance of the study, showing how it benefits both their own professional development and the broader teaching community at IMAP.
