AI-Driven Innovations for Sustainable English Language Teaching: Enhancing Learning Efficiency and Accessibility for Maritime Students

Abstract

This paper provides a theoretical perspective of how it is possible to incorporate Artificial Intelligence in teaching English as a foreign language for the promotion of Sustainable Marine practices. Based on the increased consumer demand for individualized and affordable learning, AI applications such as intelligent tutoring systems and adaptive learning technologies have become transformative technologies. Not only do these technologies improve the quality and quantity of language acquisition more specifically by making lessons relevant to each learner’s capabilities and preferences but also are eco-friendly. This change of gear comes with the aid of AI strategies where the basic and conventional tools, such as printed materials and physical structures, are reduced. This transition cuts the carbon content and cost of producing resourceful learning environments, while giving equal opportunities to Maritime Students from all the disadvantaged backgrounds across the globe. This way, the study explaining the role of AI in ELT helps to understand how new inventions in the framework of AI recreate ELT as an effective, accessible, and environmentally friendly model for the future of language learning for Maritime Students.
