As a continuation of INCULS in globalizing the Indonesian language through BIPA teaching, on Friday, March 1 2024 INCULS held an Indonesian culture class for seven foreign students studying at INCULS. One of the Indonesian cultures they studied was karawitan so they gained new experience and knowledge. Karawitan culture is a traditional art that is famous in Java and is played by beating (hitting) the gamelan with the slendro and pelog scales. The word karawitan comes from Javanese, namely the word ‘rawit’ which means smooth and soft.

Apart from learning culture, they of course also learn Indonesian in class with native Indonesian lecturers and outside the classroom with UGM student tutors. During the language learning process, they acquire six Indonesian language skills, namely listening, speaking, writing, reading, vocabulary, and grammar skills. Apart from that, they also had the opportunity to talk directly with Indonesian people, such as when shopping in Malioboro.

The seven foreign students who are studying Indonesian language and culture at INCULS are students from Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University (APU), Japan. They took part in an intensive program at INCULS for three weeks, February 19 – March 8 2024. Thank you for trusting INCULS UGM to learn Indonesian language and culture. See you next time!

Seminar Internasional dan Gelar Wicara

“MENDUNIAKAN BAHASA INDONESIA MELALUI BIPA”

INCULS, Fakultas Ilmu Budaya, Universitas Gadjah Mada

Kamis, 19 Oktober 2023

Yogyakarta, 16 Oktober 2023 – Seiring dengan semakin meluasnya pemakaian bahasa Indonesia serta menguatnya peran ekonomi, politik, diplomasi, dan kebudayaan Indonesia, semakin meningkat pula vitalitas bahasa Indonesia. Vitalitas bahasa Indonesia ini bukan hanya didukung dengan perannya sebagai bahasa resmi negara dan bahasa nasional, melainkan juga dalam peran sebagai bahasa internasional. Sebagai bahasa internasional, bahasa Indonesia semakin menunjukkan eksistensinya—tinggi, aman, dan luas pemakaiannya. Hal ini dibuktikan dengan adanya 428 lembaga penyelenggara pembelajaran BIPA yang tersebar di 52 negara. Berdasarkan hal tersebut, sudah selayaknyalah kita terus menggaungkan bahasa Indonesia dan mengembangkan fungsi dan perannya sebagai bahasa nasional Indonesia, bahasa resmi Indonesia, dan lebih lagi sebagai bahasa internasional.

Sehubungan dengan latar belakang yang disampaikan oleh Dr. Wira Kurniawati, M.A., Koordinator INCULS, di atas serta dalam rangka memperingati Dies Natalis ke-77 Fakultas Ilmu Budaya Universitas Gadjah Mada dan Bulan Bahasa, Indonesian Culture and Language Learning Service (INCULS) mempersembahkan Seminar Internasional dan Gelar Wicara bertajuk “Menduniakan Bahasa Indonesia melalui BIPA”. Acara yang diselenggarakan pada Kamis, 19 Oktober 2023 ini dibagi menjadi dua sesi.

Sesi pertama adalah Seminar Internasional yang dilakukan secara daring dan sesi kedua adalah Gelar Wicara yang dilakukan secara luring melalui link ugm.ac.id/INCULSMenduniakanBIPA dimulai pukul 08.30—12.00 WIB.

Adapun fokus pembahasan dalam kedua sesi tersebut juga berbeda. Pada sesi pertama, para pakar BIPA dari berbagai negara dipimpin oleh Koordinator INCULS, Dr. Wira Kurniawai, M.A. berdiskusi tentang “Strategi dan Tantangan Pengajaran BIPA”. Para pakar BIPA dalam diskusi tersebut di antaranya:

Suharsono, M.Hum. (Universitas Gadjah Mada);
