Abstract
With the rapid development of science and technology, the domain of artificial intelligence (AI) witnesses a surge in growth. It is employed in English language teaching for non-native speakers both at home and abroad. This essay will examine the advantages and disadvantages of AI applications in English teaching, with a particular focus on higher education in China. A sampling survey is conducted to investigate the utilization of AI in English language teaching at the post-secondary level. The research involves administering a questionnaire to a sample of 50 college students to inquire about the integration of AI in the classroom. This paper reveals that the two most prevalent applications of AI in the classroom is assisted reading and spoken interaction. Nevertheless, the most evident challenge is the tendency of students to over-rely on AI. In addition, this paper points out the impacts of constructivism on English teaching by taking English writing as an example. These discussions provide some reference for future research on this topic. In light of the aforementioned conclusions, educators may gain insight into the potential applications of AI in the classroom aiming to optimise teaching efficiency.
