Introduction

In the modern era, artificial intelligence (AI) is no longer a distant concept—it is a vital part of almost every human activity. Education, particularly foreign language learning, has seen profound transformations with the integration of AI tools and platforms. AI has revolutionized how learners acquire, practice, and refine their linguistic abilities, enabling a more interactive, personalized, and efficient learning experience.

Through human-machine collaboration, students can develop not only linguistic knowledge but also critical thinking, creativity, and digital literacy skills. Moreover, AI-based systems provide opportunities for autonomous learning, immediate feedback, and real-time communication, turning traditional classrooms into dynamic environments. As a result, the relationship between teachers and learners is evolving, with AI serving as a supportive partner rather than a replacement for human intellect.

Main Part

1. The Role of AI in Foreign Language Teaching

Artificial Intelligence plays a significant role in transforming language education into a more adaptive and personalized experience. AI-driven tools such as Duolingo Max, Grammarly, ChatGPT, and Replika AI act as virtual assistants that analyze learners’ progress and provide tailored feedback. For example, a student using Duolingo Max can receive instant corrections and explanations for grammar mistakes, while Grammarly improves their writing by offering context-aware suggestions. Similarly, ChatGPT can simulate real-life conversations, helping students enhance their speaking and comprehension skills in a natural dialogue setting. This form of learning fosters independent study and builds confidence, as learners actively participate in their development process rather than passively absorbing information.

2. Advantages of Learning with Machine Collaboration

AI enables learners to move beyond traditional rote learning by creating an engaging, interactive environment. Through adaptive algorithms, AI systems automatically adjust the difficulty level of exercises based on a learner’s performance. This ensures that each student studies at a comfortable pace, reducing stress and enhancing motivation. Moreover, AI facilitates communication practice by generating real-life scenarios—for instance, role-playing exercises where students can practice ordering food in a restaurant or discussing travel plans. Teachers, on the other hand, can use AI analytics to monitor student progress, detect weaknesses, and personalize instruction accordingly. This collaboration allows teachers to focus on creativity, mentorship, and emotional support—areas where human input remains irreplaceable.

3. The Potential of AI in Literature Education

AI can also play an innovative role in literature classes by assisting students in text analysis and interpretation. Natural language processing technologies can analyze the tone, themes, and stylistic elements of literary works. For instance, a learner studying Shakespeare can use AI software to compare linguistic patterns across different plays, while another might explore the emotional depth of a novel using sentiment analysis tools. Furthermore, interactive chatbots can be designed to mimic literary characters, allowing students to ‘converse’ with figures such as Hamlet or Elizabeth Bennet to better understand their motivations and conflicts. Such applications nurture creativity, deepen comprehension, and make classical literature more relatable to modern students.

4. Ethical and Pedagogical Considerations

Despite its many advantages, the use of AI in education raises important ethical questions. Over-reliance on technology can reduce students’ critical thinking abilities and limit their capacity for independent reasoning. Moreover, data privacy and the responsible use of AI tools must always be prioritized. Educators have the responsibility to guide learners in using AI ethically and effectively. AI should not replace teachers but rather serve as a bridge that enhances learning and makes education more accessible. By maintaining a balance between human creativity and machine precision, educators can create a holistic learning environment where technology complements human intellect.

5. Future Prospects of Human-Machine Collaboration

The future of language education lies in the continued development of intelligent systems that promote collaboration between humans and machines. AI is expected to become even more personalized, offering emotional and cultural context in addition to linguistic assistance. In the near future, AI tutors might be able to detect a student’s emotional state through voice or facial expressions and adapt the lesson accordingly. Virtual and augmented reality will further enrich the learning experience by creating immersive environments where learners can practice languages in realistic situations. However, it is essential that such innovations always remain human-centered, ensuring that technology supports, rather than dictates, the learning process.

Conclusion

In conclusion, artificial intelligence has become a transformative force in the field of foreign language education. Human-machine collaboration not only improves the quality of learning but also promotes creativity, autonomy, and inclusivity. Teachers and students alike benefit from AI’s ability to analyze, adapt, and personalize the educational process. Nevertheless, the human element—empathy, moral reasoning, and imagination—must always remain at the center of education. By embracing AI responsibly, we can shape a future where technology and humanity coexist harmoniously, enriching both language learning and the broader educational landscape.

Poetry from Kassandra Aguilera

A rant, not a rumour, about a real man

I don’t believe in an arrangement

Of a ringmaster refusing to realize,

Not reprising a role of authority

I realize was never really real.

He won’t reincarnate as a robin when

There isn’t a belief in flying free

Riding the sharks in his dying brain.

I am what remains; I relate back

To a man who can only relapse 

Where I can not keep regiving

My heart’s energy as he replays

His wrongful reasons of ruling:

A royalty his favorite shade of red.

Poetry from Eleanor Hill

the counter claws at the brims of my ankles

rupturing the soles of my feet, ebbing at my toes

almost there, i push my feet further into the shoe

shatters like ice, a menacing web of starburst, gasp

my foot plummets to the floor as the heel splinters

and a gelatinous liquid oozes from crimson gashes

dripping onto the fractures of the shoe like teardrops

ichor spreads, sliding over the cracked web of glass

staring at the jagged remains of a shoe, in cold

the spot light shuts, and the curtains abruptly fall

leaving me in the dark with my mercyless thoughts

only one word slips from my fragmented lips, “why?”

tracing my round fingers over the feet i had cut, too fit

into the shoes that were supposedly fit for me,

Poetry from Tea Russo

The humid summer where the breeze hesitated the mosquitos buzzed so loudly, like they were arguing with each other The grass stained my fingers Highland Place as I attempted to do cartwheels in the backyard. The sun sunk deeper into the tree-covered horizon, and the moths flew to the porchlight, I hurried inside, a child scared of the bugs that flew through the thick damp air, scared of the emerging darkness of the sky.

Today I will stare out the upstairs window, the green grass and swaying flowers stare back at me look at how the moss has crawled up the neighbor’s brown driveway, how the vibrant shades of green cover our backyards and among the green, my grandfather sits in the growing garden, picking at the weeds that bite at the roots of our flowers I’ll run down to the back door, and lay in that same garden, the grass breathing beneath me a cool exhale against my skin to give me a rest from the summer’s sweltering kisses bugs weave their way between my hair strands and the train sighs and sings this afternoon with the cars driving by on the other side of the house.

This evening, I’ll sit at the dinner table while the food sizzles on the stove when it’s brought to my plate, staring at me expectantly I’ll bite my tongue as my mother tells me I can’t eat until my grandmother sits in her chair and when she does, I’ll listen to family stories from generations ago and forget them all once I asked to be excused when the sun leaves the sight of the window, I’ll walk through this neighborhood say hello to horses that stand behind fences gaze up at the stars in the clear night sky, as they don’t shine the same in San Francisco and I’ll feel a breeze for the last time for a long time. and tonight,

I’ll lay in bed With blankets up to my lips and I’ll fight against my fluttering eyelids who’d like to sleep I’d like to stay conscious, like the feeble night-light who paints the walls a darkened yellow and the crickets sing me quiet lullabies beyond the window and the passing train that harmonizes upon their melody before I finish my fight to keep my eyes open.. It is the next morning,

When I awake, sometime between 11 and 12 pm, my blankets still cover my body, yet the crickets have left me “he’s gone” sings the fan, who does not provide any breeze to me whatsoever I don’t need someone to tell me what I already know the silence provides us an endless reminder anyways, The weeping of my mother, the confusion of my grandmother, the presence of my uncle, the complaints of my father, the overgrown weeds in the backyard and the poor flowers they have bitten, all provide endless reminders anyways.

Tonight when the lights begin to dim, I fight to close my eyes the crickets who once sung me to sleep, now scream like bickering parents and I toss and turn to their never-ending song, their endless reminder an endless reminder of what I once had, the grass-stains on my fingers and pants, the horses that stood behind fences, fences now broken and resting upon the ground, the moths attached to the porchlight, my impatience as I waited for my grandmother to appear out of the kitchen, the flowers of the garden, tall and proud, the bugs that crawled upon my body, the dimness of my room at midnight, lit by the feeble night-light the song belonging to the crickets, the sight of my grandfather picking at the weeds in the growing garden, an endless reminder of what I’ve lost.

I took inspiration from Yehuda Amichai’s poem with the theme of things that have been lost, along with the inclusion of family.

My impressions of the work The Affairs of the World

Young Central Asian woman in a white collared blouse dotted with blue, in a rose garden on a sunny day.

The Affairs of the World is a work by the author of more than a dozen novels and short stories, many touching stories, and several exciting dramatic works. In his 2005 publication, Otkir Hoshimov described his work as follows: “This story consists of short and long novels. However, in all of them there is the figure of the most important, dear person – my mother. Only the names of some have changed. The fate of these people is also connected to my mother in some way.”

Utkir Hoshimov, the People’s Writer of Uzbekistan, is a writer who has his own place and style in 20th-century Uzbek literature. His works are distinguished from the works of other writers by their simplicity and folkloric nature.

The work The Works of the World, which is famous throughout the world and loved by all readers, is also a work that stands out from other works with its folkloric nature. This work was translated into English by translator Mark Rees in 2024. While living in the world, we think that we need to think about one thing first. The one who created us from nothing, the one who brought us into the world and the one who brought us to this point now, the one who does not eat, drink, wear, does not say hot or cold, and even forgets their names for our benefit, are our parents.

We can safely say that Otkir Hoshimov’s The Works of the World is truly about mothers. Because in this work, the writer cites short stories and stories about mothers, big and small. Everyone who reads this work will cry at some points and laugh at others. It will certainly bring gratitude and change their attitude towards their mother in a positive way. The story I liked the most while reading this work was the story of “Iltijo” and “Gilam Saypoq” given at the very end of this book.

When I read the story of “Iltijo”, I was convinced that the writer went to his mother’s grave, what his mother loved, and that this book was dedicated to his mother. “Iltijo” uses so many sincere and warm words that it is impossible not to cry after reading them. Even if you cry, crying gives you such relief, you feel spiritually relieved.”Iltijo” begins like this.

Mom, I’m here… Do you hear, mom, I’m here…Look, my blue eyes have come again. Do you remember, every year when spring comes, I would take you out to the field. You would be happy to see the bright sun, the clear sky, and the blue grass. Do you remember, you would rub the marigolds that your grandchildren had picked into your eyes and say, “Goodbye, honey”…Today… marigolds have grown on you… No, no, I’m not crying, mom. I know that if I cry, you will be upset. Now… it will pass now. That’s it. In the morning, it rained heavily. It rained heavily. You taught me how to love spring rain… Then the sun came out. Look, the sun is shining… Do you remember, you told me a story about the sun. That sun is shining…

You see. I cry every time I read this story. After reading this story, I can say that no matter what we do, a person who displeases his parents will never achieve any of his goals and dreams. We often see this in life and in books. Through this work, I learned that we should all appreciate our parents and respect them while they are alive.

I am drifting, love, far away, Smoke rises from distant fires. A star takes a kiss from you, From this shore, I depart today. Along the river flows the untamed stream, You gaze at the sky — at the birds that gleam. Even the waves seem to feel the pain of parting, As if they embrace each other, softly departing.

Alexander Feinberg, as an Uzbek and Russian poet, won many hearts with his creativity and poetry. He was able to show the nationality and culture of the Uzbek people not only in Uzbek literature, but also in his poems, glorifying the Uzbek people in Russian literature. The immortal creativity of the writer, his works translated and set to music, will live forever in our hearts.
