Motivation from Technology Innovation in Teaching Foreign Languages: A Case Study in Vietnam

Abstract

Integrating technology into foreign language teaching has become increasingly common in the digital age. With the development of artificial intelligence, language learning has become more personalized, interactive, and engaging. The author interviewed lecturers and students based in a number of universities in Hanoi, to ascertain their motivation in teaching and learning foreign languages in regards to the appearance of ChatGPT. This is a large language model used in teaching and learning foreign languages in Vietnam from the perspective of innovative pedagogy. By analyzing the interview results, this paper argues that ChatGPT can motivate learners and teachers, and increase their performance. In terms of vocabulary retention, fluency, accuracy, pronunciation, and motivation in general, it helps learners get better results. Teachers therefore experience less stressful pedagogical issues. The paper also addresses the potential challenges and limitations of using ChatGPT in the Vietnamese pedagogical context, such as the amount of reliance on it, lack of positivity, plagiarism, etc.
