Abstract
The use of teaching platforms and accessible online materials is a response to the increasing demand for distance training courses and, consequently, the need for innovation in the methodological, technical and strategical approaches to language teaching. In Teaching Arabic Language as Foreign Language (TAFL) the linguistic variation represents nowadays a central issue in the teaching practice. The Arabic linguistic world is usually described as diglossic speech communities. In the last decades, this representation of linguistic reality has been reviewed. The reconceptualisation of the diglossic theory leads to a deep reconsideration of the didactic material to use in teaching Arabic besides dialects as foreign language. Our proposal deals with the use of MOODLE in teaching Arabic colloquial varieties besides Modern Standard Arabic.
