The Potential of AI, Blockchain, and IoT in Language Education

This chapter explores the transformative potential of artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain, and the Internet of Things (IoT) in reshaping language education through mobile technology integration. As digital learning environments continue to evolve, these emerging technologies offer new pathways for personalized instruction, secure credentialing, real-time assessment, and immersive learning experiences. The chapter begins by examining how AI enhances language learning through natural language processing, adaptive learning platforms, and speech recognition tools that personalize content and provide real-time feedback. It then investigates the role of blockchain in ensuring academic integrity, supporting decentralized learning networks, and enabling secure, tamper-proof credentialing for language proficiency. Finally, the discussion is extended to IoT, providing insight into how it is used in smart classrooms, wearable devices and context-aware environment for improving interactive and situated learning.
