Nonverbal communication skills (NVC) are the cornerstone of effective teaching and facilitation process among teachers. Due to the development of information technology and its influence on education practices, the implementation of this communication via online platform should be mastered by teachers as well. The discussion uses a meta-analysis approach by investigating previous studies to identify issues of NVC practice in online Arabic language teaching. The results showed that there are some issues of NVC practice in Arabic Language teaching and facilitating process via online platforms. The issue of NVC practice among teachers during teaching process in traditional or online classrooms still exists despite their knowledge in subject matter itself. Among them are the weaknesses in verbal communication practices as well as external factors such as the workload and technology support. The implications of this study suggest that teachers who teach traditionally need to first improve their weaknesses in their NVC skills as it will be harder in online teaching process. Teachers cannot avoid following the current trend of teaching and learning as the need for education is constantly changing when current technologies take place. Thus, infrastructure and technology need to be developed in tandem with excellent communication skills. ABSTRAK Kemahiran komunikasi bukan lisan (KBL) adalah tonggak kepada keberkesanan pengajaran dan pemudahcaraan guru. Oleh kerana pembangunan teknologi maklumat dan pengaruhnya terhadap amalan pendidikan, maka pelaksanaan komunikasi ini perlu dikuasai oleh guru secara atas talian. Penulisan ini menggunakan pendekatan meta analisis, iaitu dengan cara merujuk kajian lepas bagi mengenalpasti isu pelaksanaan KBL dalam pengajaran Bahasa Arab melalui atas talian. Hasil analisis menunjukkan terdapat isu pelaksanaan KBL dalam pengajaran dan pemudahcaraan (PdPc) Bahasa Arab melalui atas talian. Isu pelaksanaan KBL dalam kalangan guru ketika pelaksanaan PdPc dalam bilik darjah tradisional dan atas talian masih berlaku walaupun mereka mempunyai ilmu pengetahuan terhadap subjek Bahasa Arab. Antara isu yang dikenalpasti ialah kelemahan amalan komunikasi lisan dan juga faktor luaran seperti bebanan tugas yang dipikul oleh guru dan sokongan teknologi. Implikasi kajian ini menunjukkan bahawa guru yang mengajar secara tradisional perlu memperbaiki kelemahan dalam kemahiran KBL terlebih dahulu. Ini kerana ia akan menjadi bertambah sukar sekiranya proses PdPc dijalankan secara atas talian. Guru tidak dapat mengelak daripada mengikuti arus perubahan PdPc era baharu ini kerana desakan dan keperluan teknologi dalam pendidikan sentiasa berubah dari masa ke masa. Demikian, prasarana dan teknologi perlu dibangunkan seiring dengan kejituan dalam kemahiran komunikasi.
This concept paper discusses the nonverbal communication (NVC) practice among teachers during Arabic language teaching and learning in a virtual classroom in line with the technology and communication development era. The discussion showed that NVC skills practice among teachers in the virtual classrooms can be applied with knowledge of the subject content itself, exceptional basic pedagogical skills and technology support. While the culture of NVC through online or e-learning must be in line with teachers' communication and students' engagement in the traditional classroom. The implications of this study suggest that teachers who teach traditionally need to first improve their weaknesses in their NVC skills as it will be harder in online teaching process. Teachers cannot avoid following the current trend of teaching and learning changes as the need for education is constantly changing when current technologies take place.
Antara masalah yang sering dihadapi oleh penutur bahasa kedua terutamanya bahasa Arab sebagai bahasa kedua atau asing di Malaysia ialah peluang untuk mempraktik bahasa tersebut di luar bilik darjah dan kuliah. Untuk mengatasi masalah tersebut, kajian ini telah dilakukan untuk mengenal pasti sejauhmana persepsi pelajar program Ijazah Sarjana Muda Pengajian Islam (Bahasa Arab Terjemahan) terhadap keupayaan mereka berkomunikasi depan khalayak umum, mempraktik kemahiran bahasa di luar bilik kuliah dan melakukan khidmat sosial serta promosi institusi kepada khalayak secara tidak langsung melalui pembelajaran berasaskan projek. Kajian ini menggunakan kaedah kualitatif dengan menganalisis data temu bual bersama 10 orang peserta yang melaksanakan projek ini secara berkumpulan. Temu bual tersebut dilaksanakan selepas projek tamat dan data dianalisis secara deskriptif untuk mengenal pasti kemahiran komunikasi yang diperoleh dan penglibatan pelajar melalui program bersama masyarakat di luar kampus. Dapatan kajian mendapati bahawa projek ini sesuai dilaksanakan menerusi pelbagai bentuk dan platform sama ada bersemuka atau digital. Peserta kajian yang terlibat juga dapat mempraktik kemahiran asas dan tatabahasa di luar bilik kuliah untuk pemerolehan bahasa, meningkatkan kemahiran interpersonal, menjalankan khidmat sosial serta dalam masa yang sama menjalankan promosi bagi pihak institusi. Among the problems that are often faced by second language speakers, especially Arabic as a second or foreign language in Malaysia is the opportunity to practice the language beyond classroom and lectures. To overcome the problem, this study was conducted to identify students' perceptions in Bachelor of Islamic Studies (Arabic Language and Translation) towards the ability to effectively communicate with audience, practicing language skills outside traditional classroom and performing social service and institutional marketing indirectly through project-based learning. This study uses qualitative method by analysing data from interview with 10 participants who have conducted this project in group. Yet the interview was conducted after the project ended and data were analysed descriptively to identify communication skills acquired and students’ involvement through community service programs outside the campus. Findings showed that this project is suitable to be implemented through various forms and platforms, either via face-to-face or digital basis. Participants involved in this study can also practice basic skills and grammar outside the classroom for the purpose of acquiring language, improving interpersonal skills, conducting community services and simultaneously integrating marketing planning on behalf of the institution.
