Description
Summary:The ability of college students in X university to use Hiragana and Katakana letters is still weak due to the lack of practice in reading and using these letters in a word/sentence. The ability to use Hiragana and Katakana letters is not only about the ability to understand the order of writing and the differences in the strokes, but also to use Hiragana and Katakana in words/sentences. This research was a descriptive study using R & D design based on the Four-D Model. In this study, three stages were carried out out of the four stages of the model. Questionnaires and interviews were used in this study as a method of data collection. Interviews also conducted to determine the needs of teachers and students, while questionnaire was used for expert judgement (expert appraisal) process consisting of learning media expert judgement and content expert judgement. The questionnaire data were analyzed descriptively to determine deficiencies in the media created. After going through the improvement phase, then a limited scale trial was conducted on 26 students. From the questionnaire data on the interactive media produced, it is known that overall, the media produced received excellent responses from students, wherein each assessment indicator also received a positive response as well. However, further studies are needed to find out how to implement the interactive media of Hiragana and Katakana in the learning process directly inside the classroom.
