TY - JOUR T1 - Integrating artificial intelligence into foreign language education: review, systematization, and implementation mechanisms for academic staff A1 - Galiya Sarzhanova A1 - Gulnur Smagulova JF - Journal of Advanced Pharmacy Education and Research JO - J Adv Pharm Educ Res SN - 2249-3379 Y1 - 2026 VL - 16 IS - 1 DO - 10.51847/dl9tTYezNI SP - 183 EP - 190 N2 - This article examines the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies into the educational process within the framework of the concept of Education 5.0 and their impact on the development of digital competencies of foreign language teachers and students. The study includes: a review of current AI applications in language education; a systematization of AI tools (ChatGPT, DeepL, adaptive learning platforms, AI-based grammar checkers) according to their pedagogical functions; and an empirical validation of mechanisms for implementing AI tools in the professional activities of academic staff. The empirical study was conducted at Karaganda Buketov University (n=204 students of the educational program "Foreign Language: Two Foreign Languages"). A control group (traditional methods) and an experimental group (AI-enhanced instruction using ChatGPT for dialogue generation, DeepL for comparative translation analysis, and adaptive grammar tools) were compared. The results demonstrate a statistically significant improvement in academic performance (t = -9.45, p < 0.01) and a substantial increase in motivation and digital-AI literacy in the experimental group. The article provides practical recommendations for the systematic integration of AI into foreign language teacher training, addressing both opportunities and ethical challenges‎.
