Abstract

This research investigates how AI powered language learning apps impact acquisition, among learners in China. The main focus is on comparing the effectiveness of these apps to learning methods. The study uses an approach measuring growth over time in experimental and control groups that use different learning methods. It is hypothesised that AI driven apps, which personalise the learning experience and provide feedback can improve retention and recall abilities. Additionally the study explores the influence of gamification in these apps by analysing its effects on learner motivation and engagement. To conduct this research, two groups of learners were involved in a controlled experiment, one group using methods and another group using AI driven apps. The goal of this study was to gather evidence on the effectiveness of AI powered tools for acquisition while providing valuable insights for educators, learners and developers of language learning applications. Ultimately, it aims to contribute to an understanding of technology’s role, in language education.
