TEACHING INTEGRATED SKILLS IN THE AGE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

Abstract

The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into education has significantly transformed language teaching methodologies. This paper explores the role of AI in teaching integrated language skills — listening, speaking, reading, and writing — in English language education. The study examines how AI-powered tools enhance skill integration, personalize instruction, and promote learner autonomy. While AI offers numerous pedagogical advantages, challenges such as teacher training, ethical concerns, and technological accessibility remain. The findings suggest that AI, when used strategically, strengthens integrated skills instruction and improves overall language proficiency.
