PronSIG: Pronunciation and AI: Will the AI revolution remove the need for pronunciation teachers?

The conference will run from 09.30 until 17.00 UK time (BST) on Saturday 12 October.

Discussions about AI’s role in English language teaching are inescapable at present, as are concerns that it could ultimately replace teachers, or, at the very least, change our learning environments beyond all recognition. This is particularly visible in the field of pronunciation instruction, where voice recognition technology, automated learner feedback, and voice assistants are becoming increasingly common. While this may cause worry initially, we cannot ignore the potential benefits these developments could offer both learners and teachers. Join PronSIG for this whole day conference as we discuss what the AI revolution could mean for pronunciation instruction.
