Rewriting Foreign Language Education through AI

Episode notes

Rewriting Foreign Language Education through AI with Nicole Mills, Arnaud Dressen, and Hannah Kim As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly integrated into educational contexts, its potential to support - not replace - student learning is generating both excitement and important questions. In the field of language education, this moment offers a compelling opportunity to rethink how writing is taught, especially for beginning learners. In Episode 230 of Silver Lining for Learning , we are joined by Nicole Mills, Arnaud Dressen, and Hannah Kim to discuss their innovative work on the design and evaluation of an AI-powered writing companion for foreign language learners. Their research centers on a multimodal, process-oriented writing platform that encourages students to engage in “reading to write” activities through dynamic interactions with a chatbot thought partner. Grounded in both the psychology of language learning and user experience design, their study explores how features like teaching presence, anthropomorphism, and writing self-efficacy influence how students perceive and engage with the tool.
