Abstract

This article describes the strategy of using dictogloss methods for Japanese beginner learners. The subject of this research is 40 students who have studied Japanese for one semester. The application of the dictogloss method is made through four stages. The first stage is preparation. Lecturer prepares learning materials in which there are images and gives some questions related to the topic, also provides vocabulary questions related to the text that will be heard. The second stage is the implementation of the dictogloss method. The lecturer will play a CD related to the text being studied on medium speed and normal speed. Students will note down the sentence that they heard. The third stage is the reconstruction. The process of reconstruction is done with students are asked to discuss in small groups to equate perceptions of what they have been heard. The last stage is correction and analysis. This stage is accompanied by the lecturer, by providing questions related to the text and providing direction on the text that has been dictated. Furthermore, the student fixes the text if there is an error. There are numbers of difficulties for students such as listening to a short length of words and writing a long sentence. The benefits perceived by students are the ability to listen to vocabulary and sentence increased. Also, students can work in groups. So it can be said this method can be used for beginner learners.
