- Abstract
This study aimed at identifying teachers’ perceptions of ideal foreign language, in this case, Arabic language, teaching at the elementary education level in the technological age. This study used interview instruments to collect data relating to the research. The object of the study involved 24 Arabic language teachers from a number of madrasah ibtidaiyah (Islamic elementary school) selected using a random sampling selection. The results of the study indicated that the use of technology (gadgets) can facilitate the students in understanding Arabic language lessons and increase their motivation in learning. In addition, the instruction of Arabic as foreign language in the primary level preferred using many language game patterns so that the learning process becomes more interesting for students to follow.
