E-Manual of Arabic Language Activities: A Guide to Functions and Workflow for Language Week

This innovation introduces the E-Manual of Arabic Language Activities: A Guide to Functions and Workflow for Language Week as an interactive digital product designed to streamline the organization of Arabic language activities at UiTM Negeri Sembilan. The manual was developed through four phases: needs analysis, content design, digital development, and effective testing. It consolidates nine core activities of Language Week—lectures, cooking, explorace, spelling competitions, calligraphy, quizzes, short video screenings, tongue twisters, and webinars. Each activity is systematically outlined in terms of objectives, workflow, and learning outcomes, while the integration of infographic visuals, icons, and flowcharts enhances user-friendliness and accessibility. Findings indicate that the E-Manual improves the effectiveness of teaching Arabic as a third language, strengthens student motivation, and reduces the administrative workload of lecturers. Overall, this innovation contributes to the advancement of Arabic language education in a more creative and systematic manner, aligned with the aspirations of digital education. It also holds significant potential to serve as a reference model for other language programs in higher education institutions.
