Abstract

Contrary to the perception that online learning inhibits the brain’s sensory patterns in mastering Arabic, this study reveals that it can foster motivation and enhance language skill development. It refutes the stigma that online learning has a negative impact, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia. This research is significant as it demonstrates that the brain’s sensory functions remain unaffected by online learning. This study aims to explore key components of the brain’s sensory system, including motivation, learning comprehension, abstraction, and sensory sensitivity, in the context of online Arabic learning. Using a descriptive quantitative approach, data were collected through questionnaires distributed to new students engaged in online learning, supplemented by interviews with selected respondents. The findings indicate that students maintain high motivation, strong learning comprehension, effective abstraction, and high sensory sensitivity in online Arabic learning. These results suggest that online learning does not pose a substantial obstacle to Arabic mastery and may, in fact, positively contribute to optimal language acquisition.
