Summary

This chapter provides an in-depth look at Arabic second language acquisition (SLA) by reviewing past and present approaches to teaching and how research into SLA has resulted in a number of hypotheses that relate directly to acquisition of Arabic as a second or foreign language. The account here is very rich in data that provide a substantive background for application and experimentation. A persistent challenge for Arabic is how to measure achievement and proficiency. Alhawary reviews Arabic testing strategies and how they fit into the overall picture of assessment. Blending the teaching of spoken and written Arabic has been a particular problem for the field, and Alhawary dedicates the last part of his chapter to evaluation of attempts to teach variation, underscoring the difficulties and challenges that face teachers, students, and materials developers.
