]]> How AI is changing language education ? https://www.celelc.org/how-ai-is-changing-language-education/ Tue, 02 Dec 2025 09:39:09 +0000 https://www.celelc.org/?p=839 The European Language Council is pleased to share a recent article published in Giornale di Brescia highlighting the upcoming conference Speaking the Future: Language Policies and Professional Communication within the Multilingual Landscape of Higher Education (4-5 December 2025).

The event, hosted at the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore in Brescia, will bring together scholars, researchers, and experts from major European universities to examine how artificial intelligence is reshaping linguistic and communicative competencies in both professional contexts and international academic training.

Topics will include:

  • The evolving role of AI in linguistic preparation
  • Emerging communicative skills essential for future professionals
  • The impact of AI on university-level language education
  • Language policies across European universities, student mobility, attraction of international students, and the development of bilingual or multilingual programs

Coordinated by Prof. Maria Teresa Zanola, the conference provides a key opportunity to understand which linguistic and communicative competencies will become essential in the coming years and how institutions and territories can prepare.

This event marks an important moment for reflecting on the future of language education within a rapidly changing multilingual landscape.
