Educators are increasingly using GenAI chatbots in language learning classrooms. However, without a guiding theoretical framework, GenAI use may emphasize technological capabilities while overlooking the instructional and social goals of the learning environment. In this systematic review, we draw on the usefulness framework from the field of computer-supported collaborative learning to examine 24 empirical studies on the use of GenAI chatbots in language learning classrooms published between 2022 and 2025. By tracing how educators are using GenAI chatbots in language learning classrooms, we identify (1) the technological, pedagogical, and social...

This study investigates the potential of AI chatbots as practice partners in the context of EFL secondary school students' self-directed learning of conversation skills. Using the Dialogflow CX Console at Google Cloud Platform, we designed two sets of AI chatbots based on two target dialogues. A total of 112 eighth-graders at a public middle school in South Korea were divided into two experimental groups: a chatbot group and a worksheet group. The two groups practiced the target dialogues in self-directed activities with chatbots or worksheets and evaluated the quality of the activities in a questionnaire. In addition, their improvements in...

The growing popularity of online language learning means that both experienced language professionals and novices are developing and delivering all or part of their language classes online.

Responses to questions regarding professional vision varied by stance (teacher-, student-, content-, and medium-centric) with the majority of respondents reporting viewing themselves chiefly as student-centered in their work. Pervasive descriptors of professional vision —comprised of individual stances and qualities, along with how these are enacted...

Fan practices involving translation open up opportunities to explore language learning practices within the fandom (Sauro, 2017). We examine how three fans capitalize on fan translation and language learning. We consider the cases of Selo (an English—Spanish translator of games), Nino (a Japanese—Catalan fansubber of anime, and Alro (an English-Spanish translator of fanfics). A corpus was built consisting of 297 minutes of interviews, 186 screenshots of language learning events from online sites, and 213 minutes of screencast videos of online activity. Drawing upon the conceptual framework of new literacy studies (Barton, 2007), we set four...
