Abstract
This theme establishes the central theme: the transformative impact of modern technology on English language education. It highlights the shift from traditional methods to technology-driven learning. The inclusion of AI tools and online programs emphasizes the evolving landscape. Furthermore, it sets the scope of the article by stating that it will examine the impact of user choice when using the tools and that it will offer examples of advantages, disadvantages, and effective usage. This provides the reader with a clear understanding of the article's focus and intended content.
