Abstract

The study aims to develop animated educational media for Arabic for Tourism and to determine its impact on lecture activities in the Arabic Education Study Program. The development of animated education media is necessary to enhance the learning experience and the effectiveness of learning outcomes in the classroom, particularly in the Arabic for Tourism class, which focuses on understanding basic procedures for serving Arabic-speaking tourists and communication processes. It is hoped that the use of video-based media will also increase its utilization as it can be accessed on various devices, anytime and anywhere.
