Abstract EN

This study aims to explore writing errors of Kuwait University's college of education pre-service Arabic teachers.

a random sample (n=59) was chosen from pre-service arabic teachers registered in practicum course.

arabic teachers were asked to write a two-page lesson plan for a text embedded within 12th grade's arabic curriculum stating their objectives, activities, teaching aids, and instructional practices for a reading comprehension class.

on average, results showed that arabic teachers made 21 writing errors per 487 written word.

altogether, 56 types of writing errors were made; 16 of which constituted 85% of the overall errors.

Arabic teachers made phonological based, orthographic-based, morpho syntactic-based, and language-use errors.

the percentages of these major sources of errors were 8%, 44%, 36%, and 12%, respectively.

no single pre-service arabic teacher was successful in writing a two-page lesson plan without any writing error.
