Abstract

The incorporation of artificial intelligence (AI) in education has generated both positive and negative changes. At PrepaTec, between January and May 2025, we conducted a study to examine how AI can positively impact the development of oral skills and foster adaptive and differentiated learning within a safe environment. Fifty-seven 10th-grade students participated, aged between 15 and 16 years old (35 male and 22 female). As part of the participatory action methodology, the Microsoft Teams Speaker Progress tool was used. This facilitated the provision of fair feedback: kind, accurate, and timely feedback on tone, volume, pronunciation, use of inclusive and varied language, and body language. This allowed for personalized teaching due to adaptation to the individual needs of each student, promoting more effective learning and citizens with a global and ethical vision in the use of technology. As a result, a notable improvement in students' oral skills was observed; 80.70% obtained a grade between 90 and 95, and 83% showed motivation in completing the activities. In short, immediate feedback helped students identify specific areas for improvement and work on them more efficiently. In conclusion, AI, used ethically and responsibly, can be a valuable tool for aligning learning with the individual abilities, strengths, and interests of each student.
