Description
In an era shaped by globalization and rapid technological advancement, Global Citizenship Education (GCE) plays a pivotal role in preparing learners to engage responsibly in a diverse and interconnected world. English, as a global language, serves not only as a communication tool but also as a gateway to global awareness and intercultural understanding. This presentation explores how Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be strategically integrated into English Language Teaching (ELT) to cultivate global citizenship competencies. Through practical examples and a cross-border collaborative project, the session highlights how AI enhances intercultural communication, supports critical thinking on global issues, and fosters student engagement in project-based and service learning. It also addresses challenges and provides recommendations for ethical and inclusive AI use in education. This talk aims to inspire educators to harness AI tools to empower learners as empathetic, informed, and responsible global citizens.
