Abstract:

This paper presents a learning system named clickEcomic. ClickEcomic specializes in producing multimedia based language learning material developed for foreign Japanese learners. Two multimedia comic books were given to beginner, intermediate and advanced Japanese language learners. Feedback was gathered through an open ended questionnaire, informal interviews and through observing subjects behavior. The results generated by this study suggest that students found both packages interesting and informative however the package that dealt with 'day-to-day' language items received a slightly more favorable response from language learners of all abilities.
