Resumen:

Este estudio analiza la efectividad, consistencia y aplicabilidad de ChatGPT en la enseñanza del español, con el objetivo de evaluar su capacidad para generar textos que reflejen una progresión adecuada de dificultad según el Marco Común Europeo de Referencia para las Lenguas (MCER), desde el nivel A1 hasta C2. Mediante un enfoque que combina técnicas empíricas (CEF-ESTIM Grid) y herramientas computacionales (MultiAzterTest), se comparan 120 textos generados por ChatGPT con 120 textos extraídos de materiales educativos convencionales, como los utilizados por el Instituto Cervantes. Los resultados muestran que ChatGPT es capaz de producir textos alineados con las especificaciones del MCER, con una progresión en dificultad comparable a la de los materiales empleados en la enseñanza del español. Estos hallazgos destacan su potencial como...

Resumen:

The emergence of ChatGPT has sparked growing interest in artificial intelligence within the educational field. However, expectations regarding its potential are tempered by uncertainty about its real implications, especially in the teaching of Spanish as a Foreign Language (SFL), where empirical research on the topic remains scarce. This study aims to identify the opinions of SFL teachers regarding the integration of ChatGPT as a teaching tool, the ways they use this chatbot, and the limitations they perceive for its integration. Through a questionnaire applied to 159 teachers, data were collected on various variables related to the use of ChatGPT. A total of 47% of participants reported using ChatGPT in their teaching practice. The most common applications include generating questions for lesson planning and searching for cultural...

Resumen:

Accomplishing oral interactive workplace tasks requires various language abilities, including pragmatics. While technology-mediated tasks are thought to offer many possibilities for teaching and assessing second language (L2) pragmatics, their effectiveness – especially those facilitated by an AI agent (artificial intelligence agent) – remains to be explored. This study investigated how 47 tertiary-level learners of English as a second language (ESL) performed on an oral interactive task that required them to make requests to their boss in two distinct modalities. Each participant completed the same task with a fully automated AI agent and with a human interlocutor in a face-to-face format. Findings showed that both modalities elicited language use relevant to the pragmatics target. However, fully automated interactions were found to...

Resumen:

Digital Applied Linguistics (DAL) is an innovative and rapidly evolving field that integrates advanced technologies, particularly generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI), into language education, acquisition, and research. This study first systematically synthesized research on language learning, teaching, and teacher development, as well as potential future directions in GenAI-driven Digital Applied Linguistics, drawing on 23 recent and relevant studies. Employing the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, findings indicated that digital technologies, particularly GenAI, have significant potential to enhance and transform language learning and teaching. Additionally, the study adopted semi-structured interviews for three focal cases from mainland China, Hong Kong, and Macau....

Resumen:

Large language models (LLMs) have recently gained attention in automated writing evaluation (AWE) due to their flexibility, ease of use, and free accessibility. However, most existing studies have relied on standardized rubrics and detailed scoring guidelines to guide model outputs. Recent evidence suggests that LLMs can adapt their scoring behavior through example-based calibration. Building on this insight, the present study examines whether ChatGPT-4o can mirror individual instructors’ evaluative tendencies. Data consisted of 100 previously graded final exam writing samples from Saudi students of English as a second language (ESL), provided by five instructors at a Saudi university’s Bachelor of Arts program. GPT (generative pre-trained transformer) was calibrated using instructor-graded writing samples to enhance its alignment...

Libro bilingüe (portugués-inglés) en el que se defiende que la IA no debe entenderse como un fin en sí misma, sino como una herramienta que, utilizada con intencionalidad pedagógica, puede ampliar los procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje. La IA puede ser una aliada para promover la inclusión, la equidad y la innovación, siempre que su uso esté basado en la escucha atenta de las realidades locales y en la valoración de la diversidad de los contextos escolares. En lugar de uniformizar las prácticas, debe apoyar trayectorias personalizadas, sensibles a las múltiples formas de aprender y enseñar.

El libro también advierte sobre los riesgos de profundizar las...

This study explores how ChatGPT, used as a dialogic mediator, supports CEFR-based mediation and learner autonomy among multilingual university students at A1 to A2 proficiency levels in Spanish. A key finding is the contrast between learners’ observable autonomy during AI-mediated tasks and the deeper strategic awareness revealed in post-task reflections. Grounded in sociocultural theory and the CEFR (Common European...

Resumen:

This study investigates the impact of an artificial intelligence (AI) assistant on reader response theory in novel analysis using a mixed-methods approach. It examines how AI-generated real-time feedback, powered by advanced machine learning and natural language processing, enhances interpretive possibilities beyond conventional methods, aligning with reader response theory’s emphasis on reader-text interaction. The AI assistant, designed with Real-Time Theme Identification, Character Relationship Mapping, Symbolism Detection, and Interactive Literary Simulation, supports nuanced interpretations, uncovers underlying patterns, and fosters deeper engagement with literary texts. Participants (n = 100), aged 15–18 years, were divided into an experimental group (n = 50), which used the AI assistant for novel analysis, and...
