Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming the educational landscape, offering new opportunities for the design, personalisation and assessment of learning content. In this workshop, we will discuss how to effectively integrate AI tools into the English language education process. I will introduce different platforms and applications that help to automate the creation of tasks, improve students’ writing, speaking and reading skills, and promote independent learning. Practical examples, the benefits and challenges of using AI, ethical considerations and safety issues will be discussed. The workshop is aimed at teachers who want to update their methods and discover new ways to motivate students and make lesson planning more effective with modern technology.
