师范生对人工智能赋能外语教学接受度探析

Pre-service Teachers'Acceptance of Artificial Intelligence-assisted Foreign Language Education

本研究从技术接受度的视角出发,采用半结构式焦点小组访谈法,考察了11名英语师范生对人工智能应用辅助英语语音训练的接受度。主题分析结果表明,研究对象对人工智能赋能外语教学接受度呈现出复杂样态,其一方面认同人工智能赋能外语教育的有用性与易用性,但另一方面在使用态度和使用意向上持有一定保留。本研究结果对培养适应智能时代的外语师范生,以及优化智能时代外语教学形态具有一定实践意义。

Based on prior technology acceptance research,the study employed the focus group interview method and investigated 11 pre-service English teachers'acceptance of artificial intelligence-assisted English pronunciation training.Results from the thematic analysis suggest that this cohort of preservice teachers held paradoxical views towards this approach.On one hand,they acknowledged its usefulness and ease of use;while on the other hand,they showed negative attitude and low intention to adopt this approach.The findings of this study are of practical value for preparing pre-service teachers for the incoming artificial intelligence era and optimizing the forms of language education in the new era.
