Abstract

The research measured the digital technology literacy skills of professional Japanese language translators and interpreters. A modified version of the digital literacy skills checklist constructed by Open University was employed in the research. The questionnaire consisted of four sections, i.e., understanding general digital practices, finding, using, and creating information related to Japanese translation and interpreting, and the use of translation and interpreting technology. The result shows that respondents have confidence in their digital literacy skills to find, use, or create information online. However, most of them are still unfamiliar with the application of Computer Assisted Translation (CAT) and Computer Assisted Interpreting (CAI) tools to assist the translation or interpreting jobs. The result indicates that many Japanese businesses and industries do not require translators and interpreters to use specific CAT or CAI tools. However, the rapid development of digital technology and the market trend toward the use of technology are inevitable. Basic knowledge of these tools is necessary because they offer many advantages for translators and interpreters to work effectively. Therefore, it is highly important to incorporate the basic knowledge of CAT and CAI tools and other digital technology resources into the curriculum for students translators and interpreters.

Abstract

This study explores the influence of learning the Korean language and culture on students’ perceptions of social issues in South Korea. Drawing on the theory of cultural relativism in language acquisition and intercultural understanding, this quantitative research employed an online survey administered to 28 students enrolled in Korean language courses at Gadjah Mada University, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The participants came from diverse academic backgrounds and demonstrated varying levels of Korean proficiency. Data were analysed using T-tests and linear regression, with interpretation supported by relevant literature. The results indicate a significant positive correlation: students with higher proficiency in Korean language and culture exhibited greater awareness and understanding of South Korean social issues. This suggests that language and cultural education can enhance international awareness and empathy. Despite offering valuable insights, the study has certain limitations, including potential self-reporting bias and its general focus on broad social issues rather than specific topics such as workplace dynamics. Nonetheless, the findings are relevant for language educators, policymakers, and students seeking to deepen their cross-cultural competence.
