Accelerating the impact of the Online Arabic from Palestine (OAfP) language course

This project aimed to implement four actions to accelerate the impact of the Online Arabic from Palestine (OAfP) language course. The OAfP is the main output of the AHRC-GCRF project “The impact of language” (AH/R004617/1) and was collaboratively designed at UofG and the Arabic Center (Gaza Strip, Palestine). Teaching the OAfP online contributes to alleviate the high unemployment rates for young graduates in Gaza. The actions are:

  1. Develop a Teachers’ Guide;
  2. Develop a specific OAfP website;
  3. Train 20 Arabic language teachers to maximise the potential of the OAfP and use online/mobile tools creatively for language teaching;
  4. Disseminate the OAfP through workshops, webinar and social media to reach: services working with refugees in the UK (NGOs; statutory, volunteer); NGOs in Gaza; providers of Arabic as a foreign language.
