Berdasarkan teori tersebut, borang kaji selidik dibina dalam dua bahagian, pertama berkaitan latar belakang responden dan kedua berkaitan persoalan situasi-situasi yang perlu (Needs) berkomunikasi Arab, jurang kekurangan (Lacks) kemahiran komunikasi Arab dengan keperluan sebenar, dan kehendak (Wants) responden daripada kursus komunikasi Bahasa Arab. Responden kajian (N 28) terdiri daripada staf perpustakaan USIM yang berkhidmat di dua kaunter utama, iaitu kaunter Penasihat Pengguna dan kaunter Sirkulasi. Dapatan kajian menunjukkan tahap keperluan mereka terhadap kemahiran komunikasi Arab adalah sangat tinggi dan positif, pada empat fungsi utama dalam pelbagai situasi, iaitu pertanyaan, permohonan, penerangan dan perbualan umum.

Ini disamping meraikan kehendak (wants) mereka yang menyentuh aspek penyediaan modul dan psikologi peserta melalui pendekatan pengajaran yang mudah dan menarik.
