Abstract
This chapter explores the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into language education, focusing on the perspectives of pre-service English as a foreign language (EFL) teachers. Employing a mixed-methods approach, the study investigates the effectiveness of AI-powered lesson plans, specifically designed for teaching writing to 5th-grade students. Through a comprehensive evaluation rubric and qualitative analysis, the research identifies strengths, areas for improvement, and suggested changes in AI-generated lesson plans. Findings highlight the tool's success in engagement, appropriateness, and overall structure, while indicating challenges in differentiation and assessment. The chapter concludes with implications for teacher training in AI literacy, emphasizing the need for educators equipped to harness the potential of AI in diverse language teaching settings.
