Learning While Having Fun: How bilArabi can help K-9 students in the UAE learn Arabic more easily
Pearson Middle East has officially launched ‘bilArabi’, an Arabic learning programme designed for students aged 4-13 learn the language in a fun and engaging way. Recognizing that an interactive approach plays a significant role in enriching children’s learning experience and development, the bilArabi programme uses an inquiry-based approach with engaging characters and stories that makes learning student-centred. It is aligned with the UK and US curriculum and will initially be rolled across schools in the UAE and KSA and later expand across the higher education sector and working professionals.
Learners can access their student eBook through the bilArabi digital platform and take part in online practice activities such as quizzes. The ‘parent engagement’ sections in the Student’s Book also actively involves parents in the child’s learning journey. The program uses a literature-based approach to develop a sense of cultural identity and pride in Arabic history through connections to past and current case studies.
bilArabi offers a blended-learning approach, suiting both traditional and more technologically advanced schools.
Following a successful pilot, bilArabi learning programme was launched from January 2019 for level 1-3 with international UK and US curriculum schools in the UAE and KSA for first teaching in September 2019. Higher levels will shortly be available from 2020 in the UAE, KSA, Qatar and Kuwait.
Ask your child’s school to get in touch with Pearson Middle East to know more about how your school can introduce the programme as part of your child’s curriculum this year.
