Over the course of 3 research studies, she aims to discover the pedagogical value of IPAs for supporting language learners in their oral competencies. For example, in her recent study, she has focused on how Amazon Alexa can help students of English as a second language produce regular past tense verbs (otherwise known as -ed verbs: <\/span><span style=\"background-color: transparent; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #000000; font-style: italic; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">talked<\/span><span style=\"background-color: transparent; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #000000; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\"> \/t\/ versus <\/span><span style=\"background-color: transparent; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #000000; font-style: italic; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">played<\/span><span style=\"background-color: transparent; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #000000; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\"> \/d<\/span><span style=\"background-color: transparent; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #38761d; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">\/<\/span><span style=\"background-color: transparent; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #000000; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\"> versus <\/span><span style=\"background-color: transparent; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #000000; font-style: italic; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">demanded<\/span><span style=\"background-color: transparent; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #000000; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\"> \/\u026ad\/). Throughout her research, she highlights the strengths and weaknesses of intelligent personal assistants, investigates human-machine interaction for language pedagogy and tries to determine whether Amazon Alexa is able to help English language learners develop their oral skills. To summarize, her research examines the pedagogical use of IPAs as a supporting tool for teachers and as an effective learning approach when used as an extension of traditional face to face teaching.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During this crisis due to the Coronavirus, the VT\u00c9 will be organising a disciplinary webinar on the use of artificial intelligence in supporting online language teaching.
