Nhận thức của người học ngoại ngữ đối với việc sử dụng ứng dụng loora trong việc học nói tiếng Anh bên ngoài lớp học: Nghiên cứu tại Trường Đại học Sư phạm Hà Nội 2

Tóm tắt

Loora, a recently developed Artificial Intelligence (AI)-driven language learning application, acts as a personal AI tutor for English speaking in dialogues and receives feedback on grammar, pronunciation, and fluency. Drawing on the experiences of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners outside the traditional classroom setting, the research, therefore, explores the perceptions, challenges, and opportunities presented by Loora. The study employed questionnaires and semi-structured interviews as the main instruments to collect the data from 20 participants. According to preliminary results, Loora has a great deal of promise for promoting student autonomy and ongoing language development by offering quick and customized feedback in speaking practice. The research also emphasizes the necessity for additional investigation to deal with potential drawbacks and to maximize the use of AI tools like Loora in language learning. It implies that Loora can be used as a complementary tool to use along with the traditional classroom to shed light on the process of English speaking. Additionally, this study adds to the expanding corpus of research on the application of AI to language acquisition and offers insightful information to language learners, educators, and AI developers.
