Abstract

Intelligent tutors, driven by Artificial Intelligence (Al). This abstract explores the vast potential of these Al-powered technologies in enhancing language learning experiences and outcomes within the context of online courses. Chatbots, designed to simulate human-like conversation, offer learners interactive and personalized language practice opportunities. They provide instant feedback, prompt responses, and engage learners in immersive and interactive conversational scenarios. The adaptability of chatbots enables learners to practice language skills at their own pace and receive targeted guidance based on individual strengths and weaknesses. Moreover, chatbots ensure a continuous learning experience, readily accessible anytime and anywhere, thereby facilitating language practice beyond the confines of traditional classroom settings. Intelligent tutors, equipped with AI algorithms, deliver personalized language instruction tailored to individual learners' needs fostering learner autonomy. These tutors employ data analytics to assess learners' language proficiency, identify areas for improvement, and design customized learning pathways. Furthermore,they track learners' progress over time, providing comprehensive performance reports and insights to both learners and instructors. In conclusion, the contribution also addresses potential challenges and limitations inherent in chatbot implementation and proposes strategies to optimize their effectiveness.
