The proposed meta-analysis study examines the pedagogical role of artificial intelligence (AI)-based interventions in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) education through a synthesis of empirical evidence of 23 peer-reviewed experimental and quasi-experimental experiments published in 2019–2025. Scheduling a strict systematic review process in accordance with the PRISMA principles, the work investigates AI solutions, including chatbots, automated writing assessment platforms and virtual reality applications, as…

The gain

A meta-analysis of 23 experimental and quasi-experimental studies from 2019–2025 found AI tools were linked to a large pooled improvement in English-as-a-foreign-language learning outcomes (g = 1.10, 95% CI 0.75 to 1.44).

What this doesn’t fix

Heterogeneity across the 23 studies was very high (I2 = 92.66%), so results differ substantially by tool, learner group and measurement method.

How to check it yourself, without trusting this page

Download any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-2831 and hash its canonical field yourself, for example with shasum -a 256. You should get its content_hash. Each version’s text also ends with prev:and the hash of the version before it (version 1 points to 64 zeros). If anyone had changed a single character of any version after it was saved, those hashes wouldn’t line up.
