LEARNING LANGUAGES VIA ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE: CHALLENGES AND SOLUTIONS
Keywords:
Artificial Intelligence, Language Acquisition, Challenges, Feedback, Personalization, Digital LiteracyAbstract
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has opened up innovative pathways in language education, delivering tailored instruction, instant feedback, and broad accessibility. Nonetheless, its widespread and efficient implementation is hampered by various obstacles, including limited adaptability, weak feedback mechanisms, infrastructural barriers, and lack of emotional engagement. This article analyzes these challenges and offers potential solutions, such as integrating human mentorship with AI tools, developing adaptive feedback systems, and improving interface usability. It concludes that aligning AI functionality with pedagogical insight and emotional intelligence can significantly improve language learning outcomes.
