Artificial Intelligence in Our Language Learning Classrooms brings together leading researchers and practitioners exploring the pedagogical, ethical, and emotional dimensions of generative AI (GenAI) in second language (L2) education. Across two major sections (L2 skill development and broader educational perspectives), contributors offer theory-informed and practice-oriented insights into how GenAI can transform language teaching and learning. Topics include conversational AI and chatbots, writing development, extensive reading, pragmatics instruction, ethics, emotions, and teacher-led inquiry. Through a balance of optimism and critical reflection, this volume situates AI integration within established educational frameworks, supporting teachers as they navigate the rapidly evolving technological landscape.
The book emphasizes teacher agency, responsible innovation, and the centrality of human connection in AI-enhanced classrooms. By combining empirical research, case studies, and reflective narratives, it addresses both opportunities and challenges in using GenAI tools for language education. This comprehensive resource is essential reading for language teachers, researchers, and teacher educators seeking to build informed, ethical, and pedagogically grounded approaches to AI integration in the L2 classroom.
