Exploring the results of college English learning under the perspective of artificial intelligence

Abstract

Based on the theory of output hypothesis and the perspective of Artificial Intelligence (AI), the purpose of present study is to verify the result of applying Virtual Reality (VR) experiment. A quantitative method has been used. 69 students as an experimental group and 68 as a control group, by random sampled, have participated this quasi-experiment. After half a year, experimental group has obtained better performance than control group in CET (College English Test). T-test shows significant differences in the result of CET total score (t=2.05, p<0.05) and listening (t=2.70, p<0.01) as well as writing (t=2.32, p<0.05) section score. These results suggest that applying VR method brought positive result for college English learning.
