Abstract

Proficiency in Arabic listening skills is often hindered by significant psychological barriers, such as foreign language anxiety. This study aims to address this challenge by developing a coherent pedagogical framework that integrates the affective strategies of Georgi Lozanov's Suggestopedia with the neuroscientific principles of Brain-Based Learning (BBL). A Systematic Literature Review (SLR) was conducted following PRISMA guidelines. The process began with the identification of 205 records from academic databases, which were then screened to yield a final corpus of 36 core articles for thematic synthesis. This synthesis focused on literature pertaining to Suggestopedia, Brain-Based Learning (BBL), and listening acquisition. The analysis revealed profound synergies between Suggestopedia's techniques (e.g., concert sessions) and BBL's core principles (e.g., relaxed alertness, emotional engagement). This synthesis resulted in the formulation of the Integrated Suggestopedic Brain-Based Learning (ISBBL) model—a novel, five-phase conceptual framework proposed to systematically guide learners from high anxiety to a state of relaxed, active engagement. The ISBBL model offers a practical framework for educators. While it awaits empirical validation, the model conceptually grounds the intuitive methods of Suggestopedia in the principles of educational neuroscience. This framework presents a structured approach to overcoming affective barriers in Arabic listening instruction and is recommended for further empirical research to validate its classroom efficacy.

Abstract

Dictation is the subject most neglected by teachers in teaching the Arabic Language, and they believe that it has no importance in developing students’ linguistic skills. Rather, they considered it an additional material with no value. This research aims to describe the method used in teaching dictation at STIBA Ar Raayah, Class of Linguistic Preparation, and to know the factors that help in its success, and the effects on developing students’ writing skills. The approach used in this research is the qualitative approach as a descriptive study. Data is collected through personal interviews, field observations, and documents. The results of the research are: (1) that the method used in teaching the subject of dictation at STIBA Ar Raayah is the method that contains the introduction, presentation, evaluation, and conclusion, and (2) that there are factors for the success of teaching the subject of dictation, and they are divided into internal, where student interaction and frequent training, and external, where memorizing vocabulary and training them in writing texts and using teaching aids, and (3) that dictation has a role in developing writing skills, as students are able to distinguish between correct and incorrect writing and improve writing.
