H.E. Ali Al Hosani, Director General of the Sharjah Private Education Authority (SPEA), emphasised that the
agreement with Miqyas Al Dhad reflects the Authority’s unwavering commitment to adopting scientific approaches and

pioneering initiatives that enhance Arabic language education across the Emirate. “The partnership aims to strengthen
the reading proficiency of students based on clear standards and rigorous frameworks. Working with specialised partners

in assessment and evaluation marks a significant step toward improving the quality of learning outcomes and enhancing
the performance of both students and teachers,” H.E. added.

Dr. Aishah Al Yammahi, Board Member of Miqyas Al Dhad, said, “Our partnership with the Sharjah Private

Education Authority underscores our commitment to fostering strong stakeholder partnerships that drive forward
national priorities, such as the advancement of Arabic language education. This will be achieved through the

implementation of a precise standards-based ecosystem which is a critical foundation for enhancing reading proficiency.
With this step, we lay the groundwork for a pioneering national model in Arabic language education that honours the
language’s vital role in cultivating knowledge and reinforcing cultural identity.”

th
Eyad Darawsheh, General Manager of Miqyas Al Dhad, said, “The 4 International Forum for Arabic Language
Teachers served as a dynamic platform to present the latest innovative solutions in learning the Arabic language. As a
result, it represented a prime opportunity to introduce Miqyas Al Dhad as the first Arabic comprehensive framework and

standard for assessing text complexity and reading proficiency among native Arabic learners. By categorising texts
based on linguistic and cognitive complexity, and delivering precise evaluations of reading abilities, Miqyas Al Dhad

will promote improved learning outcomes and empower educators through data-driven approaches.”

Additionally, Darawsheh emphasised that the collaboration with the Sharjah Private Education Authority symbolises a
shared commitment to coordinating efforts towards enhancing Arabic language using standardised tools that elevate

educational outcomes, empower teachers, and strengthen the status of the language among its speakers.

During the forum, the Miqyas Al Dhad team participated in a virtual session titled ‘Miqyas Al Dhad: Teaching Arabic
Through Reading Standards’, led by Eyad Darawsheh. The session explored the application of modern reading standards
in Arabic language education, use of assessment tools to identify text complexity, and importance of specialised learning

programs that address the needs of each student, analyse common errors, and develop corrective plans.

Dr. Hanan Khalifa, Chief Academic Officer of Miqyas Al Dhad, participated in a discussion on ‘Strategies in Service of
Arabic Education’. Participants looked at a variety of modern educational methods, such as collaborative learning and

problem-solving approaches, as well as successful practical models of implementing these strategies.

Miqyas Al Dhad’s participation at the event underscores its steadfast commitment to advancing Arabic language
education and bolstering collaboration with regional and international partners to foster the exchange of expertise and

promote best practices in educational measurements and assessments.
