Artificial Intelligence in Oral Language Development Classes with Chinese Students

Abstract

As artificial intelligence enters the education system, it opens up new opportunities. Artificial intelligence improves the quality of language acquisition, allowing Chinese students to develop their language skills in Russian. It provides tailored exercises in grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation, improves understanding of written and spoken language, and supports conversation practice through the use of authentic dialogues and language simulators. The study explored the options for using artificial intelligence to develop speech skills in Chinese learners of Russian as a foreign language. The article introduces a promt that makes it possible to create a role for the YandexGPT neural network with certain settings and restrictions. For instance, it yielded effective dialogue scenarios between a group of Chinese students and a cartoon character / an old friend. The promt improved the students’ motivation for Russian communication, thus increasing their in-class activity and involvement. The article contains some recommendations for immersive speech development classes with Chinese learners of Russian.
