Technology and Language Learning: Effective Podcasting and Video-Based Language Teaching Practices in the Age of Generative AI provides English language teachers with a practical guide to integrating podcasting, video-based materials, and Generative AI (GenAI) technologies into their classrooms.

Focused on ESL/EFL and ELT, the book demonstrates how these tools enhance engagement, accessibility, and autonomy while fostering skills like listening comprehension, vocabulary development, and creative language use. Teachers will find strategies for using podcasts in flipped classrooms, designing authentic video activities, and guiding students in creating multimodal content. The book highlights GenAI tools like ElevenLabs, Canva, and Synthesia for generating adaptive, accessible materials tailored to diverse learners. Addressing challenges and opportunities, it emphasizes balancing AI-generated content with authentic language practice. Real-world examples and case studies illustrate practical applications in culturally sensitive and inclusive ways. Whether in traditional, hybrid, or online settings, it offers actionable guidance for leveraging digital tools as transformative components of modern pedagogy, preparing students to thrive in a GenAI-driven, globally connected world.

By bridging research and practice, this textbook empowers teachers and practitioners to reimagine classrooms as dynamic spaces where technology supports creativity, collaboration, and critical thinking.
