This research was conducted based on the results of observations which showed that hanzi learning media for Chinese Language Education students at Semarang State University needed the development of creative and innovative hanzi learning media. The objectives of this research are 1) to describe the results of the needs analysis of radical hanzi learning media "忄xīn" for Chinese Language Education students at Semarang State University, 2) to describe the results of the prototype of radical hanzi learning media "忄xīn" for Mandarin Language Education students at Semarang State University, 3) to describe the results of expert validation of radical hanzi learning media "忄xīn" for Mandarin Language Education students at Semarang State University. The results of validation of learning media by material experts obtained an overall average score of 87, which was included in the score of 4. And the results of validation of learning media by media experts obtained an overall average score of 87.5, which was included in the score of 4 with the category very feasible to use with some improvements so that the media will be better and maximally used.

Abstract

This research is based on the observation of the use of instructional media in the Chuji Hanyu Xiezuo Xia course, which is limited to PPT and textbooks, leading to suboptimal Mandarin language learning. This is evidenced by the fact that students still struggle to understand and memorize Hanzi and their strokes. Additionally, students appear to easily become bored during lessons. Therefore, there is a need for media to assist students in learning Hanzi and its radicals. Based on these issues, the researcher developed a Congklak game as a tool for both learning and playing for students. The objectives of this research are: 1) To determine the results of the needs analysis for the Congklak game media on the Wuxing radicals material for the 2022 cohort of Mandarin Language Education students at Semarang State University, 2) To describe the prototype results of the Congklak game media on the Wuxing radicals material for the 2022 cohort of Mandarin Language Education students at Semarang State University, and 3) To describe the expert validation results of the Congklak game media on the Wuxing radicals material for the 2022 cohort of Mandarin Language Education students at Semarang State University. This research employs the Research and Development (R&D) method, consisting of five stages: 1) identification of potential and problems, 2) data collection, 3) product design, 4) design validation, and 5) design revision. This study resulted in the development of the Congklak game media to enhance students' understanding of the Wuxing radicals material. The needs assessment questionnaire results indicated that both students and lecturers agreed on the development of this media. Validation by media experts yielded an average score of 87.8 with a rating of 4, categorized as highly suitable for use. Meanwhile, validation by material experts obtained an average score of 87.9 with a rating of 4, also categorized as highly suitable for use. Based on feedback from material experts, the media was subsequently revised.

Abstract

In learning Mandarin, there are four fundamental skills that students must master: writing, reading, speaking, and listening. Writing skills are taught from the first semester to the sixth semester through courses such as 初级汉语写作上 chūjí hànyǔ xiězuò shàng (Basic Mandarin Writing I) to 高级汉语写作下 gāojí hànyǔ xiězuò xià (Advanced Mandarin Writing II), which focus on writing practice. Additionally, 汉字 hànzì material is also taught in the course 现代汉语上xiàndài hànyǔ shàng (Modern Mandarin I), but the emphasis is more on theoretical aspects. In this course, students learn about the origins and development of Hanzi characters currently in use, including the methods of character formation. The course 现代汉语上xiàndài hànyǔ shàng focuses on three main topics: 语音yǔyīn (Phonology), 文字 wénzì (Characters), and 词汇cíhuì (Vocabulary). The reference book used, 现代汉语 xiàndài hànyǔ (Modern Mandarin), is written entirely in Mandarin without translations. This is one of the reasons why the researcher aims to develop teaching materials on 汉字 hànzì (Hanzi) for the 现代汉语上 xiàndài hànyǔ shàng course, aligning them with the intended learning outcomes and the course duration. These three main topics must be covered within one semester.

Abstract

The development of technology, particularly Artificial Intelligence (AI), has brought significant changes in various aspects of life, including education. The presence of AI has opened new opportunities to create a more effective, interactive, and adaptive learning process tailored to students’ needs. This technology can be applied in nearly all aspects of academic learning, from providing information resources to supporting cognitive processes and practice activities. In the context of language learning, especially Mandarin writing skills, AI plays an important role as a learning tool that helps students overcome various challenges, such as difficulties in understanding sentence structures, writing hanzi, and composing grammatically correct paragraphs. This study employed a mixed-methods research approach using a convergent parallel design, which combines quantitative and qualitative data to gain a comprehensive understanding. The findings indicate that AI can serve as an effective learning aid when used appropriately and responsibly. In writing skills, AI has been shown to assist students in understanding vocabulary, sentence structure, translation, and organizing short, structured paragraphs. However, the use of AI should be guided to ensure that students do not become overly dependent on it, but rather use the technology to strengthen their conceptual mastery and develop independent writing abilities. Therefore, AI should function as a supportive learning tool, not as a replacement for the teacher’s role in the Mandarin language learning process.
