Investigating The Impact Of AI-Driven Personalized Learning Platforms On Vocabulary Acquisition Among Chinese EFL University Students

Abstract

English is widely recognized as the global lingua franca, playing a critical role in  international  communication,  trade,  and  education.  For  non-native  speakers, acquiring proficiency in English is essential for accessing global opportunities and achieving  success  in  academic,  professional,  and  social  contexts  (Rao,  2019). Vocabulary acquisition is one of the core components of English language learning, directly  influencing  learners ’  integrated  skills  in  listening,  speaking,  reading,  and writing. Vocabulary is the foundation of language communication. To comprehend reading materials, non-native speakers must master 98% of the vocabulary within a text (Laufer & Ravenhorst-Kalovski, 2010).
