Activity step 1:
Based on activity 1, I use different artificial intelligences and applications to practice my English, all teach very well and clearly, but I choose "CHATGPT" as it is an advanced language model that understands and generates text in human language. Uses deep learning to process and produce text based on patterns and examples of human language, allowing users to interact in a natural and conversational way.

Its characteristics are:

• ChatGPT can simulate conversations in English, acting as a practice companion to improve fluency and listening comprehension.

• Is able to create interactive and practical exercises, such as multiple choice questions or space completion exercises, adapted to different levels of language proficiency.

• Provides detailed explanations of grammar rules and vocabulary usage, helping to clarify specific doubts.

• You can review and correct texts written in English, offering suggestions for improving grammar and style.

As for teaching English, students can practice answering common questions in job interviews or oral exams, ChatGPT can teach idioms and their use in real contexts, facilitating a deeper understanding of colloquial language; Although ChatGPT is mostly textual, it can provide phonetic transcriptions and tips for improving pronunciation.

In addition to that, the ChatGPT has many advantages and disadvantages such as:
Advantages:
• You can use it at any time.
• Allows you to practice speaking English as if you were talking to him.
• Adapts to your level and needs.
• Generate vocabulary, grammar and more activities.
• Help improve your writing in English.

Disadvantages:
• Does not always give perfect answers.
• Does not correct oral pronunciation directly.
• If you use it too much, you can stop thinking for yourself.
• Avoid using it to copy assignments or exams.

Reflection on the role of teachers

dannacogse — 2024-11-21 03:13:04 UTC

The article "Haci Hasan Yolcu" invites us to think deeply about the future of education. The author argues that, with the advent of advanced technologies such as AGI able to reason, learn and make decisions almost like a human being, education will undergo an inevitable transformation. However, beyond the technological advances, the article highlights that the heart of education remains the human being; the teacher. Although many tasks can be automated, the role of the teacher does not disappear; on the contrary, it becomes more important in new ways.

In addition, when it comes to teaching English, this evolution represents both an opportunity and a challenge. On the one hand, teachers will be able to rely on AI to personalize learning, create more interactive activities and provide immediate feedback. But, on the other hand, their role goes far beyond teaching grammar or vocabulary. The English teacher becomes an emotional guide, a bridge between cultures and a facilitator of meaningful experiences. Empathy, motivation and the ability to connect with students are skills that no machine can replace.

Finally, the article also reminds us that this transformation brings with it ethical questions such as: Who has access to these technologies? , How do we protect students' privacy? How do we avoid bias? For artificial intelligence to truly enrich education, teachers must be accompanied, trained and recognized as key players in this process. Redefining their role is not about taking power away from them, but returning the human value they have always had, now with more tools to transform lives from the classroom, whether physical or virtual.
