Integrating GenAI into the Language Class: When, Why, and How?
The presentation will provide concrete examples of how to integrate generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) into foreign language courses. By examining tasks such as preparing formative exercises, generating complementary audio material, guiding ethical student use, and incorporating GenAI into graded assignments, the speaker will share several didactic practices developed through his own teaching experience in various German as a Foreign Language (GFL) courses.
