The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into education has heralded new paradigms for language learning, with conversational AI chatbots emerging as potent tools for fostering learner autonomy. Therefore, this article explores how conversational AI chatbots support and reinforce Self-Regulated Learning (SRL) in language acquisition. It…

Text chat facilitates L2 use by providing learners with extended time to plan, monitor, and process production during interactional tasks. However, learners may not naturally take advantage of these affordances, especially for providing peer feedback. This study used video-enhanced chat scripts to examine the behavior of beginner L2 Spanish…

This study explores primary teachers´ initial training programs, focusing on Foreign Language Teaching (FLT) and its integration with technology. The research is grounded in two dimensions of contemporary society: plurilingual competence and digital literacy. The study employs the conceptual framework of "Technological Pedagogical Content…

This study aimed to evaluate the utility of artificial intelligence (AI) in improving the persuasive communication skills of online Master of Business Administration (MBA) students.

Background/purpose; There is an ongoing debate on the potentiality of using AI for educational purposes, ranging from some optimistic views that anticipate AI to continue changing the interface of language education on one side, to a more cautious camp questioning the efficacy of the issue. As a significant group of stakeholders in the educational…

This study investigated: (1) the challenges encountered by a heterogeneous group of first year undergraduates during a synchronous on-line collaborative writing activity conducted through Google Classroom using Google Docs; and (2) their perceptions of the pedagogical approach. Five sub-groups of undergraduates participated in the study, and their…

This quasi-experimental study compares text-centered dialogs between two groups of intermediate second language (L2) French learners: traditional face-to-face (FTF) discussion groups; and groups who annotated and discussed texts through the digital social annotated reading (DSAR) platform, "Hypothes.is." All participants read the same…

This article introduces my C.H.A.T.S. model (Conversational, Holistic, Authentic, Transformative, Situated), a novel pedagogical framework I designed to revolutionize language learning and teaching through the strategic integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and conversational chatbots with established learning theories. The model addresses…

This study leverages the Stimulus-Organism-Response (S-O-R) framework to investigate the effects of teacher and technical support (TCHS) on learners' willingness to communicate (WTC) in artificial intelligence (AI)-enhanced English as a foreign language (EFL) contexts, considering the mediating effects of learners' artificial intelligence literacy…
