Let's learn hiragana with Yuka
👉 https://www.parcooroo.com/9n65sgdu
French Coffee Season 1 was just the beginning (and yes, Season 2 is coming! 😉). Now, I'm pouring my energy into a new passion project: an innovative way to learn Japanese! Every great journey starts with a first step, and ours begins with the foundation - the Hiragana.
Discover the 5 key Japanese vowels A-E-I-O-U with trilingual support (FR/EN/DE).
Your friendly virtual guide, Yuka, will be with you every step of the way!
Hi Katie-Jordan,
First of all, I would like to express my sincere gratitude for the opportunity to share my project in your upcoming weekly newsletter. It is an honor and a real joy for me to be able to offer this work free of charge to the community and to everyone.“Learn hiragana with Yuka”

I created this trilingual module with two goals in mind:To make learning Japanese easier in a gradual and engaging way.
To offer gentle and stimulating cognitive training, particularly suited to exercising memory, visual recognition, and association skills.
How?
Using Storyline 360, I carefully structured each screen:Layers to guide users step by step and avoid cognitive overload.
Variables to reward each effort (sakura flowers) and maintain motivation.
A measured increase in difficulty, where each “episode” introduces a new family of characters, like chapters in an unfolding adventure.
The idea behind each module goes beyond simply memorizing hiragana. It also involves:
Training the memory to retain new symbols and their sounds.
Developing visual recognition by associating a shape (the character) with a sound, then with a concrete word.
Strengthening associative connections (symbol → sound → meaning) in a natural and repeated way, in a supportive and fun environment.
Each lesson is designed to be a step forward in both discovering Japanese and maintaining cognitive abilities, all in a structured, positive, and rewarding adventure.

This is such a fun series you are working Emmanuel_Kegler - thank you for sharing! I really like how you included the notepad pop-up for this one too.
Would you be willing to share a little more about the process that went into creating these? I think this is a really great model others could learn from!
