Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of digital media in improving students' learning outcomes in the subject of Aqidah Akhlak at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah DDI Awang-Awang, Pinrang Regency. The research employs a Classroom Action Research (CAR) method, conducted in two cycles comprising the stages of planning, implementation, observation, and reflection. Digital media such as animated videos and interactive quizzes were utilized during the learning process. The results indicate a significant improvement in students' average scores, from 73.75 in the first cycle to 88.12 in the second cycle. These findings confirm that digital media not only enhance comprehension but also increase students' interest and active engagement in learning. However, the study highlights certain limitations, including a lack of in-depth discussion on potential challenges, such as limited technological access in certain areas, teacher readiness, and cultural resistance to technology in education. Future research is needed to address these challenges and explore the best methods for integrating digital technology into the curriculum.

Abstract

  Japanese language learners whose native writing systems do not include kanji often encounter difficulties in using kanji effectively in complex discourse, remembering onyomi and kunyomi readings, and understanding their meanings. This study explores the effectiveness of kanji mapping as a strategy to enhance kanji comprehension and memorization among second-year students in the Japanese language Education Program at Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia (UPI). The research focuses on the Chukyu Hyouki course, which covers 220 N3 level kanji from the Kanji Master N3 textbook. Using a quasi-experimental one-group pre-test and post-test design, the study was conducted over three sessions involving 23 fourth-semester students. Data were collected through pre-tests, post-tests, and questionnaires. The findings indicate a significant improvement in kanji mastery, with average test scores increasing from 66.6 to 88.1. Questionnaire responses further suggest that students found kani mapping helpful in organizing and internalizing onyomi, kunyomi, and bushu (radicals). This structured visual approach supported accurate contextual application and contributed to long-term retention. Overall, the results support the integration of kanji mapping into kanji instruction to improve learner outcomes.
