International Journal of Applied LinguisticsABSTRACTIn task‐based language learning, learners have to deal with the challenge of moving the task and the talk concurrently forward. In doing so, they develop sets of task‐relevant, interactional, and multimodal resources. In this study we use multimodal longitudinal conversation analysis to investigate one learner's L2 interactional competence ...

A Systematic Scoping Review of Self‐Regulated Learning With AI in Language Education
International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology has brought new opportunities for second/foreign language (L2) education while also raising concerns about the use of AI tools. This systematic scoping review provides a snapshot of the current state of research situated at the intersection of self‐regulated learning (SRL) and AI
