The participants were 21 pre-service EFL teachers taking a course on Artificial Intelligence for language learning and teaching. The pre-service English teachers’ readiness is examined from four components: (1) basic digital skills, (2) didactic ICT competence, (3) learning strategies, and (4) digital bildung.
