AI

Artificial intelligence in ELT encompasses generative models (e.g., GPT), automated writing evaluation, speech recognition, and adaptive learning platforms. These tools generate text, simulate conversation, and provide immediate feedback on learner output.

For teachers, AI automates repetitive tasks -- grading, materials creation, personalised exercise generation -- freeing time for higher-value interaction. For learners, AI provides 24/7 practice opportunities and individualised feedback at scale.

See AI in Language Teaching for a detailed treatment of applications, research evidence, and pedagogical principles.
