The Integration of Positivist Philosophy in the Teaching Strategies of the Four Arabic Language Skills
Keywords:
positivism, learning, arabic language, teaching strategiesAbstract
Grounded in positivist philosophy, which emphasizes objectivity, empiricism, and measurability, this study explores the application of positivist principles in Arabic language learning. The primary objective is to examine how these principles are reflected in the teaching of the four core language skills: listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Employing a qualitative research design with a literature review method, data were drawn from scholarly books, peer-reviewed journals, and relevant academic articles. The data analysis followed systematic stages of reduction, organization, and interpretation to construct a comprehensive understanding of the positivist paradigm in language instruction. The findings reveal that positivist philosophy underscores structured and measurable processes in Arabic language learning. For receptive skills such as listening and reading, positivist principles manifest through exercises that enable the quantitative assessment of comprehension. In contrast, productive skills speaking and writing highlight product-oriented approaches that allow for objective evaluation. Overall, this study demonstrates that the adoption of positivist philosophy contributes significantly to enhancing the effectiveness, accountability, and systematic development of Arabic language learning.
