AI-Mediated Language Education in the Metaverse Era

Beschreibung

This book provides open discussions and dialogues around the latest research and development on applying AI and ubiquitous technologies into various language learning contexts. Living in the Metaverse era, arguably a turning point in the evolution of the Internet, it is vital for researchers and practitioners to rethink and reconsider human and AI relationships in transforming the way we teach, learn, and live in everyday life. Reinders et al. (2022) amongst Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) researchers have emphasised the need to conduct more research on language learning in the classroom and beyond that makes real connections with what language learners do for their learning today. More importantly, language educators must find ways to support language learning in this new era. What is urgently needed is a consolidation and synthesis of theoretical foundations, visions and the latest research findings and practices on the integration of AI and ubiquitous technologies and language education from diverse perspectives. This book, comprising of contributions regarding contextualised AI-mediated language learning and teaching, provides researchers, practitioners, and teacher educators with an opportunity to closely engage in research-informed practices and intellectual dialogues on potential opportunities and challenges in the Metaverse era. It also helps to facilitate the development of equitable, sustainable, and just practices for the diversity of language learners today.
