Abstract
We already have a broad, general idea of the pros and cons of AI, but many don’t know how to actually make practical use of that knowledge. This workshop will demonstrate how AI can (and can’t) be used as an effective tool by exploring both its benefits and limitations, especially in an educational setting. We will explore how both students and educators can (and should!) use AI to streamline their educational experience, while scrutinizing and being cautioned against AI’s current limitations and unreliableness in language education. By the end of the workshop, attendees will know how and how not to use AI in their own classrooms and for their own language learning experience.
