Lately I have been contemplating more and more about what I should be teaching my students for them to be successful in life and especially the business world--what do they really NEED in regards to English to get by in life? This contemplation seems to contiunually direct me to artificial intelligence (AI) and its rapidly increasing use in most aspects of life.
My personal thoughts are that, in the future, my students will need less and less writing and grammar skills and more and more prompting skills- (Prompting refers to how we request things from AI programs to get out our desired results). I know a few Universities have started offering classes on prompting and am curious to hear what anyone�s thoughts are on teaching prompting as an esl topic as well. Have any of you had any such encounters or thoughts on the subject?
You are right : AI takes more and more room in our life.
Unfortunately some students are becoming lazy as they are using it to do their homework. They reflect no longer on what they feel facing some personal or social problems.
Teaching prompting is not a bad idea as far as we can make the students understand it is only a TOOL, a modern tool.
I think that writng is important too. When you write you can reflect as you have more time than typing on a keyboard. You can choose your vocabulary, go further in your thoughts with more calm or logic.
Teaching a language, whichever it is, means explaining the way of life, the habits of the people speaking this language.
So teaching prompting may be necessary as far as it is now part of our modern way of thinking BUT it is very important, in my humble opinion, to keep alive the HUMAN and sensitive way of our "imperfect" way of reflecting. AI is too predictable and "stubborn" : I mean it will give the same answer to everyone asking the same question whereas a man can adapt his answer according to the way the question is asked.
Let�s be modern. Yes but in a sensitive and clever way !
Thanks for this post dear friend. Interesting topic, indeed.
Dear friends,
"He came from inside."
In this sentence, what is the part of speech of ´inside´?
I think ´from inside´ is a prepositional phrase. So, ´inside´ is a noun.
I am curious to know your opinions.
Thank you.
Isn�t "inside" describing the unmentioned object (e.g. inside the house, the office, etc.)? And wouldn�t that make it a prepositonal phrase serving as a noun(?) ?

Hello, dear community! I am from Moldova and I am looking for some English international contests/ competitions/ Olympiads in which the children aged 8-14 could take place so as to show their knowledge of the English language. It can be any type of Olympiads or contests conducted in a written form (through subscription/ registration, etc) or orally (via Zoom, Meet, etc). These could also be competitions in which the children could compete with other kids from other schools from other countries, etc. at the end of which they could get a certificate of participation with the results (places or whatever the rules for the competition are)! If such contests/ Olympiads of the English Language are held in your country/ city/ school, and you are interested in finding partners from abroad, please, let me know in my private messages. I �d be very grateful and pleased to answer and consider your proposals!!! Thank you in advance and looking forward to hearing from any of you...
