Abstract:

This Element explores the innovative integration of microlearning and
generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) in second-language
education. Designed for language teachers, teacher trainers, and
future educators, it offers research-informed insights and actionable
strategies for designing learner-centred, technology-enhanced
instruction. The Element introduces the evolution and applications of
GenAI in language learning, examines its synergy with microlearning,
and presents pedagogical frameworks rooted in SLA theory, cognitive
load theory, and multimodal learning. Practical guidance is provided
for designing, implementing, and evaluating AI-assisted microlearning
tasks, focusing on interactivity, accessibility, and ethical use. The
Element also explores GenAI's role in teacher professional development
and considers future trends shaping language education. While
celebrating the transformative potential of GenAI, it critically
engages with the challenges and limitations of emerging technologies.
Through a balanced blend of theory and practice, this Element equips
educators with the knowledge and tools to navigate and harness the
evolving AI-enhanced language learning landscape.
