- Abstract
A ubiquitous challenge-response mechanism, the Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart (CAPTCHA), primarily serves to distinguish between human users and automated bots. The presented work introduces an innovative Arabic CAPTCHA gamification system designed to concurrently address two critical aspects. The first aspect is centered on the pedagogical application of the system, particularly its employment in teaching young learners the Arabic alphabet. This is achieved by posing interactive queries based on displayed word images, thereby facilitating the practice and enhancement of Arabic letter recognition and typing proficiencies. The second aspect integrates a cybersecurity awareness component into the system. As learners engage with the game and advance through its levels, they are concurrently exposed to pertinent information and guidance regarding cyber threats and safe online practices. This dual-purpose approach serves to inform and empower learners, providing them with the necessary skills to navigate the digital landscape securely. The novelty of this work lies in the fusion of these two aspects, offering a uniquely comprehensive learning experience that not only bolsters language skills but also cultivates cybersecurity awareness, a critical facet of digital literacy in our increasingly interconnected world. To the authors' knowledge, this work represents the inaugural implementation of an Arabic CAPTCHA gamification system, making it an advantageous resource for anyone seeking to learn Arabic letters and word formations.
