Effectiveness of E-learning Mode for Developing Arabic Language Skills for Non-Arab Speakers in Nigeria: An Empirical Study on FCE Katsina Students

In a fast-changing digital age, technologies are changing the way we teach and learn in many respects. This research focuses on investigating the effectiveness of using e-learning as a mode for developing Arabic language skills among non-Arab speakers in Nigeria, with a specific empirical study conducted at the Federal College of Education (FCE) Katsina. In a country known for its linguistic diversity, language education plays a crucial role in promoting cross-cultural communication and understanding. However, the traditional classroom approach may not always cater to the varied learning needs of students. This study aims to assess the viability of e-learning in developing Arabic language skills in comparison to traditional classroom instruction, while also identifying challenges and advantages linked to its implementation. The research methodology utilizes a quantitative method approach. Quantitative data will be gathered through pre-and post-assessments, measuring the development of Arabic language skills among non-Arab speaker students before and after the e-learning intervention. The anticipated outcomes of this study include insights into the effectiveness of e-learning in language skill development, the identification of challenges and benefits associated with its implementation, and recommendations for optimizing the integration of e-learning in Arabic language education for non-Arab speakers.
