Abstract
This study attempts to analyze and evaluate theories and design principles for the design and development of multimedia program for teaching and learning Arabic vocabulary among non-native speakers. In this paper, the researchers mentioned about the research tools, sampling technique and steps as well as population which are related to the design and development process of multimedia courseware which were conducted among the experts in the subject matters (SME). The study proposes the implementation theories of social constructivism by Vygotsky (1978), second language acquisition by Krashen (1984), multimedia learning by Mayer (2001) and ADDIE instructional model by Dick & Carey (1990). The feedbacks were gathered from various SME experts in teaching Arabic as a second language (TASL) and instructional design (ID) who have participated in the study. This paper has concluded the initial theories of design and development of multimedia learning courseware as proposed by the SMEs as outcome of this paper that can be used by the researcher in the design and development processes of related multimedia learning courseware in language learning
Highlights
The Internet has long been utilized to facilitate language teaching and learning process due to its capabilities, its abilities to provide a one-stop source of information and opportunities for language learners to communicate among themselves either synchronously through chat and online messenger or asynchronously through bulletin board and email
In order to achieve the objectives of the center in language teaching, Centre for Languages and Pre-University Academic Development (CELPAD) used a number of teaching aids and modern learning tools such as e-books and advanced multimedia program like Facebook and YouTube and Moodle
The summary of experts’ in Teaching Arabic as a Second Language detailed responses to the analysis survey can be used for design and development purposes
Summary
The Internet has long been utilized to facilitate language teaching and learning process due to its capabilities, its abilities to provide a one-stop source of information and opportunities for language learners to communicate among themselves either synchronously through chat and online messenger or asynchronously through bulletin board and email. There are many benefits as mentioned by researchers from the use of the Internet in education. It serves the objectives of strengthening self-learning and attracting the students in an interesting way as students can reduce their learning time and increase their achievement [1]. In order to achieve the objectives of the center in language teaching, CELPAD used a number of teaching aids and modern learning tools such as e-books and advanced multimedia program like Facebook and YouTube and Moodle. The centre believes that this program from the Internet can provide teachers and students new experiences in the process of Arabic language teaching and learning [4]. It is necessary to keep up with the technological development, live with it and use it in teaching and learning
