Insights Into Learner-centeredness Challenges During The Ai Era: Fostering Capacities Or Hindering The Mental Activity: The Case Of Second Year Ba English Students At Tébessa University



Authors : Abid Zineb .

Abstract

This research paper investigates how the prominent aspects of learner-centered approach manifest in the EFL classroom in correspondence with using artificial intelligence tools. A semi-structured survey was designed and distributed online to EFL teachers at Tébessa University to have insights on their perceptions towards the phenomenon. The study tackles two main questions: 1) Do EFL learners involve learner-centered aspects to accomplish their tasks during classes? 2) Does the use of AI ameliorate critical thinking and problem-solving capacities or threaten their development? The results demonstrate that the students of English develop low degree of autonomy, self-constructed and monitored learning. Besides, they intensively rely on artificial intelligence tools for easy and rapid access to information which in turns contribute to hinder their potential and mental capacities. Thus, it is recommended to strengthen the aspects of learner-centered approach inside EFL classroom and guide students towards the appropriate use of AI generators to protect the human mental activity.
