Sawsan said “There is a great lack of Arabic resources to encourage students to learn Arabic in an interactive efficient way, so I decided to join the Languagenut team and work on this creative resource!”
Languagenut Arabic has been designed to support you in developing your students’ exam skills, through sound pedagogical activities spanning listening, reading, writing and speaking/talking. Activities include:
- Semi-spontaneous speaking/talking
- Open writing
- Multiple Choice
- True or False
- Who Said What?
Languagenut avoids wasted time spent on marking multiple choice or true/false questions – all reading and listening activities are automatically marked, with immediate feedback given to students. Students’ audio recordings and written paragraphs are stored and collated for ease of marking. Students can see and take ownership of their own learning with a history of what they’ve done and how well they did.
- No more tick and flick
- Chronological history of assigned tasks and performance for every student & class
- Individually assignable tasks for easy differentiation
Quickly identify students in need of additional support, particular praise or more of a challenge. It’s easier than ever to evidence student progress – whether it’s an inspection, parents’ evening or a professional development assessment, just select what you need and print it out!
- Set individual tasks, monitor performance and evidence progress
- Provide detailed feedback on assignments
- Create your own content
How often have your students spent their time not doing homework in favour of playing computer games? We’ve harnessed student interest in gaming to assist you in engaging your students in language learning and encourage them to develop good learning habits. Languagenut Arabic features over 50 unlockable achievements/trophies which reward:
