概要 The paper explores the integration of AI in English Medium Instruction (EMI) to enhance learning
experiences. Despite the benefits, EMI faces several challenges, including insufficient preparation
time for educators, limited collaboration between content and language specialists, fluctuating
student numbers, and a lack of experienced EMI instructors. Preliminary research conducted in
Japan (Kikuchi, 2024) indicated that AI integration in EMI courses correlates positively with
English proficiency and academic performance, but gaps remain in understanding specific AI usage
patterns and effective management by EMI teachers. Building on these findings, this study employs
semi-structured interviews to delve deeper into students' AI usage and teachers' perceptions across
varied EMI courses of AI tools. Unlike the preliminary study, where participants were encouraged
to use AI tools within group activities, this study involves students who have had different EMI
courses and teachers from diverse EMI specialties. This study reveals mixed perceptions of AI usage
among students and teachers. While AI is valued for routine tasks, its transformative potential
remains underutilized due to concerns about reliability and academic integrity. Addressing these
challenges requires clear guidelines, training for AI use, and innovative assessment methods
focusing on higher-order thinking and creativity. The study concludes with strategic implications
and directions for future research to optimally integrate AI into EMI settings.
