Use of AI Tools in Learning English at Highschool Level; Benefits and Challenges

Abstract

This paper explores the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools in high school English education, examining their transformative potential and inherent risks. As generative AI models like ChatGPT and automated writing assistants like Grammarly become ubiquitous, they offer unprecedented opportunities for personalized learning, immediate feedback, and enhanced student engagement. However, these benefits are counterbalanced by significant challenges, including academic dishonesty, cognitive over- reliance, and the potential erosion of critical thinking skills. Drawing on recent scholarship and educational theory, this research argues that while AI tools can serve as effective scaffolds for language acquisition, their successful implementation requires a pedagogical shift toward AI literacy and "human- in-the-loop" instruction to preserve the integrity of the learning process.
