families, and publishers alike.” Eyad Darawsheh, General Manager of Arabic Scale
Educational Consultancy LLC, stated.
According to the agreement, Diglossia will integrate the Miqyas Al Dhad reading scale into its
digital literacy and assessment platforms, providing educational institutions across the region with
access to data-driven insights based on a validated Arabic reading scale. This adoption represents
an important milestone in aligning assessment tools with culturally and linguistically relevant
metrics.
Mimi Jett, Founder and CEO of Diglossia, said, “Diglossia is proud to support the
international rollout of Miqyas Al Dhad, which opens the door for a single scale
standardizing reading levels in Arabic reading assessment. By aligning our tools with this
scale, beginning with TALA® and expanding throughout the portfolio, we can confidently
offer educators across the Arab world an integral framework to connect readers with
appropriate content, provide personalised guidance, and assess growth.”
A linking study will also be carried out by MetaMetrics, the global authority behind the Lexile
Framework for Reading, to ensure that Miqyas Al Dhad is firmly rooted in globally recognised
standards, while remaining consistent with the morphological and syntactic structures of Arabic.
As part of its broader vision, Miqyas Al Dhad is also working with publishers across the Arab
world to develop an extensive library of levelled Arabic texts, enabling readers to discover, study,
and engage with books based on the Miqyas Al Dhad scale.
This collaboration builds the groundwork for a future in which Arabic learners are empowered
through accurate, easily accessible, and culturally appropriate reading materials, thereby fulfilling
the promise of universal literacy.
