AI-SUPPORTED SPEAKING SKILL DEVELOPMENT IN PRESCHOOL EDUCATION
Abstract
This study examines the effectiveness of AI-supported speaking practice in developing English speaking skills among six-year-old preschool children. Using a quasi-experimental pretest–posttest control group design, one group practiced speaking with the AI-based application Buddy.ai, while another group followed traditional classroom methods. Speaking skills were evaluated in terms of pronunciation, vocabulary, sentence formation, and fluency. The findings show that children who used AI support demonstrated greater improvement in oral performance. The study suggests that AI-based applications can effectively support speaking development in preschool education when combined with child-centered teaching practices.
