Objeto: qué aporta realmente la tecnología a la enseñanza de lenguas. La autora reúne los resultados de experimentos publicados por profesores que han usado los recursos tecnológicos del siglo XX aplicados a la docencia —la computadora, internet, la videoconferencia, la multimedia— y comenta sus ventajas, sus inconvenientes y la manera de optimizar su uso.

La conclusión que recorre la revisión es que la tecnología por sí sola no produce diferencias significativas en la adquisición de una lengua extranjera: es una herramienta que solo rinde acompañada de principios pedagógicos sólidos y de un trabajo conjunto de docentes, tecnólogos y aprendientes.

En el presente trabajo, formularé primero algunas observaciones sobre la relación entre la tecnología de la comunicación y los profesores de idiomas. Después expondré las razones que me llevaron a poner una página en la red y los problemas que tuve que salvar. A continuación hablaré brevemente de la na­turaleza del nuevo medio de comunicación y las implicaciones de su uso. En seguida mostraré, en copia tomada de la red, la página electrónica que con ayu­da de un diseñador elaboré, con breves comentarios sobre la misma. Después tomará la palabra el diseñador de la página y expondrá algunos puntos que sirvan de guía en la elaboración de una página electronica propia.

The increasing use of English as a Lingua Franca (ELF) worldwide has brought attention to tools that can assist English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners in their journey to fluency. Much research has shown that EFL learners often do not have sufficient latitude to output at a satisfactory level when writing in a second language. In addition, cognitive (working memory) resources are spent on low-level writing tasks (word production, translation) at the expense of time being allocated to higher-level writing tasks such as organization and revision. The researcher's laboratory developed an AI-based web application called “AI KAKU” to assist EFL learners in reducing the cognitive barriers...

Artificial Intelligence (AI) and gamified learning have attracted interest from language educators and researchers in the field of teaching English as a Foreign Language (EFL) for their potential to enhance vocabulary acquisition outcomes. However, the relative effectiveness of AI-generated storytelling and gamified learning in EFL vocabulary acquisition has been underexplored. This study examines the influence of AI-generated storytelling and gamified learning on the vocabulary retention and engagement of intermediate-level EFL learners. Ninety participants were allocated among three groups: a control group that employed conventional vocabulary methods (e.g., rote memorization using...

Conversational artificial intelligence enables opportunities for practicing speaking the target language while giving individualized feedback in a low-anxiety environment offered in spoken dialogue systems with conversational agents. In this paper, we present results from a longitudinal study conducted on Swedish lower-secondary students who used a spoken dialogue system as an integrated part of their ordinary English lessons. They interacted orally with embodied conversational agents to solve given tasks in everyday-life scenarios and self-reported their experiences in questionnaires and systematic logbook reflections. Analytical methods were mainly non-parametric tests. Results revealed...

This study examines the effectiveness of artificial intelligence (AI) in language teaching, particularly in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classrooms, following AI's increased adoption after the COVID-19 pandemic. Through a multilevel meta-analysis of 117 effect sizes across 46 empirical studies published between 2022 and 2025, results show that AI has a statistically significant medium-to-large overall impact on language learning (g = 0.74, 95 % CI [0.57, 0.92], p < .001) across all five major skills, with vocabulary showing the strongest effects, followed by reading, writing, listening, and speaking.Grounded in constructivist, adaptive learning, and cognitive load theories,...

There are some dichotomies surrounding ChatGPT's application and impact on education as a central part of artificial intelligence (AI) integration. Problems concerning negative preconceptions and the limited usage of this form of AI have been reported, as some teachers perceive it as a competitor. This is due to insufficient readiness for its integration and a lack of understanding of how it can facilitate teaching innovation. Due to this, the researchers applied a bisymmetric approach, where necessity conditional analysis (NCA) as a symmetrical approach employs necessity logic to identify the must-have factors required for language teachers' passing accountability, while PLS-SEM as an...

This study undertook a thorough systematic review of the existing literature on artificial intelligence (AI) technologies and AI-based tools for English as a foreign language (EFL) learning and explored the current research state with the goal of identifying areas for enhancement to optimize language learning for EFL learners. A qualitative research method (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis) was adopted and three steps were conducted to guide the review. This study examined 708 articles published from 2019 to 2024 and retained 103 in total. The findings show steady increase in literature between 2019 and 2024, predominantly centred on higher education...

This review analyzed the trends in conversational AI tools in ELT from January 2013 to November 2023. The study examined 32 papers, focusing on publication trends, tool types, research methods, learning outcomes, and factors influencing their use. Findings revealed a gradual increase in publications, with 4 (12%) from 2013 to 2021, 13 (41%) in 2022, and 15 (47%) in 2023. All studies (100%) were conducted in Asian EFL contexts. Among the AI chatbots, Google Assistant (25%) was the most widely used. Quasi-experimental (45%) and cross-section (41%) research designs were commonly employed. Mixed-method (50%) approaches were prevalent for data collection and analysis. Conversational AI yielded...
