Application Difficulties and Optimization Strategies of Artificial Intelligence Empowering College English Teaching
Journal: Journal of Higher Education Research DOI: 10.32629/jher.v7i2.5164
Abstract
The rapid development of artificial intelligence technology has brought profound changes to college English teaching. Represented by generative artificial intelligence technologies such as DeepSeek, Doubao, and Jimeng, AI is gradually penetrating various aspects of college English teaching, including classroom instruction, writing guidance, oral training, and teaching evaluation. It has further enriched teaching resources, expanded teaching scenarios and modes, promoted the transformation of traditional teaching from standardization and uniformity to personalization and diversification, and effectively improved teaching efficiency. However, in the specific practice of colleges and universities, practical difficulties still exist, such as superficial application, insufficient adaptability, students’ abuse of AI tools, and misconduct in data security and ethics. Based on this, this paper, grounded in the practice of college English teaching and adopting a problem-oriented research method, proposes optimization strategies from four dimensions: technology, teaching, teachers, and systems, in response to the above difficulties. It is hoped that this study can provide certain references for colleges and universities to make full and effective use of artificial intelligence technology and promote the high-quality development of college English teaching.
