Enhancing Students' Writing Skills Through a Dialogic Process With Instructional AI in the Post-Pandemic Era

Abstract

Over the pandemic period, most schools at all levels were equipped with several online platforms for teaching and learning and introduced to several AI-based instructional systems, such as generative AIs and AI-based search engines. Considering the process of adapting to this new teaching and learning environment with advanced technologies in the post-pandemic era, this study strived to construct a theoretical foundation for adaptive AI pedagogies and develop a practical instructional sequence that engages students with AI in their composition through a dialogic process between students and instructional AIs. In addition, this study will further discuss human instructors' role in the student learning process assisted by instructional AI.
