A Need Analysis of Interactive Learning Media for Japanese Verb Vocabulary at N3 Level

Putri Hamida Salsabila, Soni Mulyawan Setiana

Abstract


Mastering Japanese verb vocabulary at the N3 level is essential, but many students struggle with meaning, conjugation, and contextual usage. Ineffective and less interactive teaching methods often lack interactivity, further hindering the process of learning. This study aims to analyze the need for interactive learning media to support Japanese verb vocabulary acquisition. This study used a quantitative descriptive method and a closed questionnaire distributed via Google Forms to 20 second-year students of the Japanese Literature study program at Universitas Komputer Indonesia in the 2024/2025 academic year. The results showed that most students believe that multimedia can improve their understanding and memory. These findings showed that interactive learning media have a big potential in improving the effectiveness of vocabulary acquisition. Therefore, the development of well-designed digital-based learning media is required. As an impact, this innovation in learning media can help the students to achieve better Japanese language competence and improve the overall efficiency of their vocabulary learning.
