Enhancing English Language Acquisition through ChatGPT: Use of Technology Acceptance Model in Linguistics

Amidst the ever-changing landscape of English language education, where virtual platforms shape new learning paradigms, this research determines the revolutionary potential of ChatGPT to foster English language acquisition in Pakistan. English is a second language in Pakistan and the learners face multiple challenges in its acquisition. To understand the influence of ChatGPT on English language students, the study relied on quantitative data, using the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) along with social impact. To test the hypothesized relationships, the study gathered 400 valid responses from English-language students studying at various universities in the southern districts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province via purposive sampling. For data analysis, the study applied structure equation modelling through Smart-PLS and found that social influence, perceived usefulness, and perceived ease of use stimulate students’ intentions to use ChatGPT for English language learning. The research fills the gap between English language learners and technology usage, which helps to better understand the connection between AI-based platforms and English learning. This study is helpful for teachers, students, and tech firms to focus on solving students’ learning problems through AI tools. References: Abramson, A. (2023). How to use ChatGPT as a learning tool.
