Overview
Artificial intelligence (AI) has been introduced into tools and technologies, such as chatbots, for language teaching, allowing educators to better meet the needs of individual students. Chatbots may act as virtual tutors in online learning environments, giving students the ability to access leaning support as needed. Chatbots can improve educational accessibility for students with special needs or those in resource limited areas. Challenges and ethical considerations, including data privacy and algorithmic bias, must be addressed to effectively harness the transformative opportunities AI presents to enhance learning personalization and efficiency. Harnessing Chatbots for Effective Language Teaching addresses the problem of traditional language teaching methods, which often fail to meet the diverse needs of learners. It provides insights and tools to effectively integrate chatbots into educational practices, thereby improving the learning experiences on a global scale. Covering topics such as task-based teaching, gamification, and student wellbeing, this book is an excellent resource for educators, technologists, EdTech developers, policymakers, researchers, scholars, academicians, and more.
