Summary: | In this paper, the focus is on written interaction with artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots in the context of foreign language teaching. The use of Computer Mediated Communication (CMC), online interaction and conversation has been known for a long time and has proven to be beneficial for use in foreign language teaching (Markou 2009). The use of AI is new: chatbots such as ChatGPT are part of the everyday life of teachers and foreign language learners. This paper focuses on how they can be used in teaching german as a second/foreign language, what advantages and challenges they pose and how they influence the interplay between teaching and the real world. |
