In an era of rapid technological advancement, the intersection of AI and language education holds immense promise for revolutionising traditional teaching paradigms. This presentation aims to clarify the integration of OpenAI ChatGPT with NPCs in VWs (SL) focusing on its manifold and exciting potential opening up for teacher training, education and in particular, language skills.

During this 45-minute session, practical insights will illuminate instructional design considerations for leveraging this AI affordance in TESOL, including personalisation, immediate feedback, and scaffolding for diverse learner proficiency levels.
