    RETHINKING ENGLISH LANGUAGE EDUCATION IN THE AGE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE: FROM LANGUAGE PROFICIENCY TO HUMAN COMPETENCIES

    The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming English language education by reshaping how learners’ access, produce, and interact with language. Generative AI tools can now perform many tasks that have traditionally been central to language learning, including translation, grammar correction, writing assistance, vocabulary support, and pronunciation feedback. While these technologies offer significant opportunities to enhance learning, they also challenge the long-standing emphasis on language proficiency as the primary goal of English language education. This conceptual paper argues that English language education must evolve beyond the development of linguistic competence to prioritize cultivating uniquely human competencies that AI can support but cannot replace. Drawing upon literature in English language education, human-centered learning, 21st-century competencies, and AI in higher education, the paper proposes a Human Competency Framework for English Language Education that repositions language proficiency as a foundation for developing higher-order competencies, including communication, critical thinking, intercultural competence, creativity, collaboration, ethical AI literacy, and lifelong learning. The framework highlights the complementary roles of educators and AI in fostering meaningful learning experiences while maintaining the human dimensions of education. The paper concludes by discussing implications for curriculum design, teaching practice, assessment, and future research, arguing that the future of English language education lies not in competing with AI but in preparing learners with the human competencies necessary to communicate, collaborate, and thrive in an AI-driven world.
