AI technology has taken a huge leap, with developments offering many benefits for language education, but also posing challenges. This session introduces a range of useful AI tools and demonstrates productive ways they can be used to assist teachers and foster learning. It also explores how to reduce unethical use by students and increase their AI literacy. There will be opportunities to try some of the tasks that are introduced, so attendees are encouraged to bring a laptop, tablet and/or smartphone.
