Interest in Arabic language has rapidly increased over the last few decades because of economic and political factors, which has led to the establishment of many Arabic language programs worldwide. However, the curricula of those programs are not sufficiently rigorous to satisfy such a strong demand. When it comes to learning to read in Arabic, the ability to read aloud is still the main skill that is emphasized in the Arab world, which is an outdated view of reading because emphasis of reading instruction has moved toward the use of higher-level thinking skills rather than only focusing on correct pronunciation. Such a perspective has resulted in the need for using alternative methods of assessment and to have students involved more in the assessment process. This approach-alternative assessment-is in line with constructivism, which encourages students to actively participate in various language tasks, take more responsibility for their own learning, focus on big ideas and concepts instead of emphasizing smaller issues such as pronunciation or typing errors, and enhances their perceptions and opinions.
