In 2022, China’s Educational Ministry, for the first time, released an industry standard for teachers’ digital literacy. This standard provides a holistic framework for teachers’ digital literacy (TDL) in five dimensions. Since few studies have investigated EFL teachers’ digital literacy, the relationships among the five dimensions proposed for EFL teachers’ digital literacy remain unknown. Therefore, this research applied a quantitative method using a five-point Likert questionnaire designed based on TDL. Ninety-two EFL teachers from two universities and one higher vocational college in China participated in this questionnaire research. Partial least squares structural equation modeling was used to assess the relationships between these five dimensions. The relationships between the five TDL dimensions were highlighted by the findings, which supported the proposed model. In addition, implications for enhancing EFL teachers’ future digital literacy have been provided to facilitate and favor EFL teachers’ digital literacy development.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) chatbots are increasingly becoming integral components of the digital learning ecosystem. As AI technologies continue to evolve, it is crucial to understand the factors influencing their adoption and use among students in higher education. This study is undertaken against this backdrop to explore the behavioral determinants associated with the use of the AI Chatbot, ChatGPT, among university students. The investigation delves into the role of ChatGPT’s self-learning capabilities and their influence on students’ knowledge acquisition and application, subsequently affecting the individual impact. It further elucidates the correlation of chatbot personalization with novelty value and benefits, underscoring their importance in shaping students’ behavioral intentions. Notably, individual impact is revealed to have a positive association with perceived benefits and behavioral intention. The study also brings to light potential barriers to AI chatbot adoption, identifying privacy concerns, technophobia, and guilt feelings as significant detractors from behavioral intention. However, despite these impediments, innovativeness emerges as a positive influencer, enhancing behavioral intention and actual behavior. This comprehensive exploration of the multifaceted influences on student behavior in the context of AI chatbot utilization provides a robust foundation for future research. It also offers invaluable insights for AI chatbot developers and educators, aiding them in crafting more effective strategies for AI integration in educational settings.
