Abstract

This study aims to analyze and compare students' perceptions of the use of the NPO Tadoku website and picture books as reading media in reading lessons in the Tadoku 2 course. This study uses a quantitative descriptive approach with a questionnaire consisting of 27 closed questions and 8 open questions, covering aspects of ease of use, reading comprehension, material appeal, and reading motivation. The data were analyzed using percentage and descriptive interpretation techniques. The results showed that the NPO Tadoku website received higher ratings in terms of accessibility, reading variety, ease of navigation, and reading comfort. Meanwhile, picture books were rated superior in terms of visual support, clarity of storyline, and physical reading experience. Overall, students preferred digital media because it was considered more practical and in line with current reading habits, although picture books still provided added value, especially in terms of visuals and an enjoyable reading experience. These findings confirm that both media have their own advantages and can complement each other in Japanese reading learning.

Abstract

This study aims to explain how visual literacy using digital photos supports students’ reading comprehension and cross-cultural understanding in a dokkai (reading) course. Visual literacy in this study was implemented through digital photos and texts with a focus on traditional Japanese and Indonesian games, which provided a meaningful cultural context for comparison. Digital photos were obtained from online sources and were used to help students observe traditional play (dentoteki na asobi) and connect vocabulary, textual meaning, and cultural elements. Visual literacy provided initial support for reading, stimulated prediction and interpretation, and encouraged critical thinking about cross-cultural phenomena. This research employed a qualitative descriptive method to examine how digital photos were used as a dokkai learning medium and how visual literacy supported students’ exploration of cross-cultural understanding. The results showed that students were able to identify similarities and differences between traditional Japanese and Indonesian games, appreciated the cultural value of traditional play, and developed critical awareness of shifts between traditional and modern play culture.
