Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the GROW-ME (Goal-Reality-Options-Will-Metacognitive Enhancement) training model in enhancing Japanese language proficiency, motivation, and self-efficacy among prospective Tokutei Ginou program participants, compared to traditional instruction methods. A quasi-experimental design with pre-test and post-test control groups was employed over 12 weeks. Fifty participants were randomly assigned to experimental (n=25) and control (n=25) groups. The experimental group achieved significantly higher Japanese proficiency scores (258.4±32.1) compared to controls (189.6±28.7; p<0.001, Cohen's d=2.31). All skill components showed significant improvements: listening (68.2 vs 52.8), reading (65.8 vs 48.1), grammar (62.4 vs 45.2), and vocabulary (62.0 vs 43.5), all p<0.001. Motivation increased from 5.2 to 6.1 in the experimental group versus 5.1 to 5.3 in controls (p=0.001). Self-efficacy improved substantially from 4.1 to 5.8 versus 4.0 to 4.4 (p<0.001). Growth curve modeling revealed 9.4 points per week improvement in the experimental group compared to 3.9 points per week in controls. JLPT N4 achievement rates were 84% versus 32% respectively.This study is the first to demonstrate the effectiveness of an integrated coaching-based model (GROW-ME) combining metacognitive enhancement and cultural competency training for Japanese language acquisition in the Tokutei Ginou context. With extraordinarily large effect sizes (Cohen's d>2.0) rarely observed in educational research, the findings establish that structured metacognitive development alongside language instruction produces superior outcomes compared to traditional methods. The model demonstrates a dual impact on both cognitive domains (language proficiency) and affective domains (motivation, self-efficacy), coupled with exceptional JLPT N4 achievement rates. This represents a paradigm shift in preparing foreign workers for Japanese employment contexts.

Abstract

Objective: This study investigates the integration of sakubun writing instruction with character education in Japanese language pedagogy at Manado State University, exploring implementation strategies and student responses to this integrated approach. A qualitative descriptive design was employed with 30 fifth-semester students as participants. Data were collected through classroom observations (12 sessions), semi-structured interviews (15 students), and document analysis of sakubun compositions. Thematic analysis was used to identify patterns in integration practices and student perceptions. Findings reveal three primary integration strategies: thematic writing assignments incorporating moral values, reflective journal activities, and collaborative peer feedback emphasizing respectful communication. Students demonstrated enhanced awareness of character values such as honesty, responsibility, and empathy while developing their Japanese writing proficiency. Students reported increased motivation and meaningful engagement in writing tasks. Key challenges included time constraints and difficulty in assessing character development alongside linguistic competence. This study provides empirical evidence of character education integration within Japanese writing pedagogy, an underexplored area in foreign language education research. It offers a practical framework for language educators seeking to implement values-based instruction while maintaining focus on linguistic objectives, contributing to holistic approaches in second language writing instruction.

Abstract

Objective: This research aims to examine students' learning outcomes using the Digital Visual Storytelling on Kanji Character Acquisition model facilitated by Multimedia Presentations, and to assess the efficiency of this approach in enhancing students' proficiency in Japanese. This study's background indicates that numerous students struggle with learning Japanese due to pedagogical approaches that prioritize memory and are predominantly traditional in nature. This research employs a pre-experimental design utilizing an Intact-Group Comparison methodology. Data acquisition Observation and test administration (Pretest-Posttest). Statistical analysis: Descriptive and inferential statistics. This study demonstrates that the Digital Visual Storytelling on Kanji Character Acquisition learning approach utilizing Multimedia Presentations enhances Japanese language proficiency among students. The result is that the Digital Visual Storytelling on Kanji Character Acquisition paradigm utilizing Multimedia Presentations is demonstrably beneficial in enhancing students' Japanese language learning outcomes.
