| Summary: | Learning Arabic as a foreign language requires a lot of continuous practice and memorization. Teachers
who are teaching Arabic for non-native speakers usually will provide students with numerous exercises
and notes to ensure that students will continually engage themselves with the subject at home. Previously,
these exercises and notes were delivered in the form of photocopied version. Nonetheless, teachers
have now started to digitalise their notes and exercises. While this new improvement is more interesting
and engaging, it requires more preparation time. The teachers also need to have some basic IT skills and
adapt to the rapid changes in technology which can be tedious to some. MyRaff 2.0 is one of the
platforms that offers a solution to this problem. This invention offers a collection of Arabic educational egames
created using PowerPoint Visual Basic for Application (VBA) code, triggers and advanced
animation. The games offered vary from simple card games to complex crime solving games. All games
are creatively designed to make players learn Arabic in a fun and enjoyable way. |
