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...

There are obvious benefits to integrating generative AI into language learning and teaching: using AI as a language tutor, creating learning materials, or assessing learner output. However, due to how AI systems understand human language —based on a mathematical model using statistical probability— they lack the lived experience to use language with the same social awareness as humans. Additionally, there are built-in linguistic and cultural biases based on training data which is mostly in English and predominantly from Western sources. Studies have clearly shown that systems such as ChatGPT often do not produce language that is pragmatically appropriate.

Generative AI tools provide opportunities for personalizing and improving the education process. This paper analyzes the tool Brisk Teaching, used in the courses Information and Communication Technologies and E-Business during the academic year 2024/25 at the Zagreb School of Economics and Management. After recognizing weak points in students' knowledge, the authors implemented chatbots to help students learn and to provide professors with quick feedback on student progress. The paper examines the connection between students' activity with the GenAI tool and the results achieved in the knowledge test: students were very satisfied with its implementation and believe it provides additional motivation for learning.

Examines the effects of ChatGPT's Advanced Voice Mode on the development of university students' oral proficiency. Following a sequential explanatory mixed-methods design, the study measured improvement over an 8-week intervention and then gathered learners' perspectives through semi-structured interviews. Quantitative findings showed that fluency and lexical resources increased significantly, but pronunciation did not. The qualitative data focus on three themes: the potential of AI for low-anxiety practice, learners' frustration with the lack of nuanced feedback on accent, and difficulties with real-time corrective functions. The authors propose a «Mixed Dialogical Model» combining...

Resumen:

The use of chatbots as learning assistants is receiving increasing attention in language learning due to their ability to converse with students using natural language. Previous reviews mainly focused on only one or two narrow aspects of chatbot use in language learning. This review goes beyond merely reporting the specific types of chatbot employed in past empirical studies and examines the usefulness of chatbots in language learning, including first language learning, second language learning, and foreign language learning. We conducted a systematic search and identified 25 empirical studies, using the inductive grounded approach to identify the technological and pedagogical affordances and the challenges of using chatbots, and Garrison's social presence framework to analyze the social affordances.

Resumen:

This entry provides a concise overview of the research conducted on chatbots in language teaching and learning, and aims to introduce chatbots as a distinct field within computer-assisted language learning (CALL). Much of the existing research focuses solely on chatbots' functions as conversational software, lacking deep reflection and theorization. In response to the need for a theoretical foundation, the authors review previous studies to highlight three considerations: the unique characteristics of chatbots that distinguish them from human interlocutors; research frameworks incorporating cognitive, sociocultural, and critical approaches; and areas in language education that intersect with chatbot technology.

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...

Los autores relatan un curso completo integrando chatbots de IA diseñados a medida en clases iniciales de alemán y japonés en Dickinson College, como alternativa a los cuadernos de ejercicios en línea.

El artículo ofrece pautas prácticas para redactar las instrucciones del sistema —longitud de las respuestas, control del vocabulario, rol instruccional, marcado para ejercicios estructurados— y compara plataformas: interfaces web gratuitas (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude), servicios freemium (Gliglish, Mizou, SchoolAI) y soluciones autoalojadas por API, con cálculo de costes. Recoge la respuesta positiva del alumnado y las limitaciones observadas: corrección de errores inconsistente y...

O objetivo deste trabalho é apresentar os conceitos de inteligência artificial (IA) e de inteligência artificial na educação (IAEd) e como esse sistema adaptativo autônomo pode auxiliar a todos os agentes no processo de ensino-aprendizagem. Apresentaremos algumas ferramentas e plataformas que podem ser utilizadas para o ensino-aprendizagem de línguas, desafios e limitações relacionados à IAEd. A relevância deste trabalho se dá pelo fato da IA impactar as relações sociais, diversos processos organizacionais e a educação. Além disso, o consenso de Pequim (UNESCO, 2019c) propõe a integração de tecnologias de IA na educação para auxiliar a alcançar os objetivos de desenvolvimento sustentável e a...
