Course Description
Participants will explore how artificial intelligence, gamified learning design, and emerging Gen Alpha tools can transform language learning into a more personalized, engaging, and human-centered experience. Grounded in communicative language teaching and second language acquisition research, this course emphasizes designing learning environments where students actively create, interact, and reflect—rather than passively consume.
Participants will examine how AI can support (not replace) student thinking, how gamification can increase motivation and persistence, and how digital tools aligned with Gen Alpha learners can amplify student voice, creativity, and agency. Throughout the course, educators will design, test, and refine lessons that prioritize human thinking, ethical AI use, and meaningful communication. Conducted in English.
What participants are saying about this course
"This course was full of more practical things to actually use in my classroom than any others I have taken. I learned A LOT and feel I am so much more up to date with how to use technology in my classroom and in my planning. Awesome course!"
“This was one of the best courses I have ever taken. I have never before had the chance to incorporate so many new and highly-engaging activities into my curriculum in such a short period of time. Thank you!”
