Abstract


Abstract:Public Speaking (PS) is a strategy to improve Arabic speaking skills. PS skills need to be possessed by everyone because they have a big role in the development of speaking skills. One technique to be able to master PS is to improve Arabic speech skills. However, based on the initial observation, there are some obstacles in the learning process. These include anxiety, lack of confidence in PS and lack of mastery of PS techniques in public. This is due to a lack of knowledge and experience in speaking Arabic. As well as the lack of teaching materials that specifically discuss Arabic speeches, reinforces the existence of these problems. This paper aims to explain the development process of an Interactive Electronic Book (IE-Book) for Arabic Public Speaking to improve students' Arabic speaking skills. The novelty of this research lies in the media used in line with increasingly sophisticated technological developments. This research phase consists of 5 steps using the ADDIE model. These five steps are analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation of the IE-Book for Arabic Public Speaking in learning the art of speech in Arabic speech courses at the Arabic Language Education Study Program STAI Attanwir Bojonegoro. The results of this study show the design of the IE-Book for Arabic Public Speaking equipped with a QR-Code symbol to get an electronic link to a video about the latest Arabic speech art.
