In this conversation analytic study, interactions between L2 speakers at language cafés are analyzed with a focus on collaborative word searches and how these may occasion participants’ orientation to linguistic items as \"learnables”, that is, as objects of learning. The analysis includes two extended cases of participants' orientation to learnables and draws on both on-line interaction and face-to-face interaction. In both examples participants rely on each other's language expertise, as well as on the expertise invested in online translation programs on their smartphones. They also employ additional interactional resources, such as other shared languages and gestures. It is demonstrated how the participants’ collaborative work goes beyond restoring intersubjectivity and develops into shared orientations to learnables. These orientations manifest as: a) a search for linguistic accuracy in the target language, b) meta-linguistic discussions about vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation, and c) demonstrations of learning behavior in the form of repetitions of new information about the item. The findings show that the language café, online as well as on-site, can provide room for L2 speakers to collaboratively explore items in the target language as objects of learning, and that such orientations can occur without the guidance of a facilitator who is more knowledgeable in the target language.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47468,"journal":{"name":"Linguistics and Education","volume":"90 ","pages":"Article 101462"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145325467","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study involved 102 Chinese undergraduates completing three AI-assisted writing tasks designed within Wen et al.’s hierarchical CT framework.

Eight CT-oriented affordances of AI emerged from the data—providing references, supporting divergent thinking, synthesizing information, identifying logical gaps, enhancing clarity, stimulating metacognitive reflection, verifying data, and fostering intercultural awareness—which shaped how learners navigated tasks and positioned AI in learning. Post-task results revealed perceived improvement in CT-cognitive skills (e.g., <em>Analyzing</em>, <em>Reasoning</em>, <em>Evaluating</em>) and greater sensitivity to CT-intellectual standards (e.g., <em>Logicality</em>, <em>Relevance</em>). However, limited gains were observed in higher-order dimensions like <em>Definiteness</em>, <em>Profundity</em>, and <em>Flexibility</em>, probably due to linguistic constraints, low cognitive investment, or efficiency-driven usage patterns.

The objective is to examine how this method may contribute to reducing conflictual behaviors and fostering micro-processes of peace in Colombia. The literature classroom thus serves as a testing ground within a university environment characterized by the presence of politically engaged student groups that occasionally express strong opposition to institutional decisions. Two pedagogical models were compared: a traditional approach focused on textual analysis and a new method centered on argumentation and emotional intelligence. The study uses a mixed-methods design combining academic assessments, Diploma in French Language Studies level B2 results, and qualitative interviews. Findings indicate that the new approach enhances oral argumentative skills and emotional regulation, although it may limit the depth of written literary analysis; it also appears effective in reducing conflictual behaviors within the classroom. The conclusions advocate for a hybrid model and explore its potential application to other academic disciplines and in broader spaces of public dialogue.","PeriodicalId":47852,"journal":{"name":"Language Teaching Research","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2025-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145311018","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
