Enhancing English Language Learning through AI-Supported Gamified Personalized Instruction in Higher Education

Abstract

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into English language teaching (ELT) has

created new opportunities for personalized and engaging learning experiences. A five

week classroom-based study was conducted with 28 university EFL students using AI

supported tools and gamified activities. The findings indicate increased learner

participation, improved vocabulary retention, and higher motivation levels while

highlighting ethical and pedagogical considerations.
