"Synthesizing conceptual, empirical, and pedagogical insights, Tian and Wang offer a comprehensive response to the challenges and possibilities posed by generative artificial intelligence (AI) in language education." Violeta Kalnytska, PhD; Visiting scholar at PLACe School, Purdue University, Review posted in MyTESOL"Rethinking Language Education in the Age of Generative AI integrates conceptual, empirical and classroom-based perspectives to present a coherent discussion on how large language models may reshape language education. It systematically examines AI’s influence at multiple layers, including curriculum design, classroom interaction, assessment and policy, showing readers the opportunities and related challenges."Boshi Wu & Xiaobin Yang, Review posted in Language and Education"Rethinking Language Education in the Age of Generative AI, edited by Zhongfeng Tian and Chaoran Wang, emerges as one of the first comprehensive volumes to integrate conceptual models, empirical findings, and pedagogical applications into a single cohesive framework. The collection moves beyond adaptation towards a critical and reflective engagement with the transformations AI brings to language education. As such, it serves as an essential resource for students and researchers aiming to leverage AI to enhance language teaching and learning in innovative, critical, ethical, and responsible ways."Muhammed Parviz & Amir Ghorbanpour, Review posted in in Open Learning: The Journal of Open, Distance and e-Learning"Overall, the book convincingly demonstrates GenAI’s transformative impact on language education, advocating for a human-centered, GenAI-empowered ecosystem."Lianjie Zhao & Luli He, Department of Language and Arts Education, College of TeacherEducation, Capital Normal University, Beijing, China; Review posted in Journal of China Computer-Assisted Language Learning
