Abstract

The context of language use is influenced by the cultural orientation of language users. Cultural awareness is needed to minimize the negative impacts of cross-cultural interactions, such as cultural shock, cultural stereotypes, cultural polarization, and cultural conflict. The learning needs of cross-cultural competencies should be used as a basis for preparing BIPA learning tools. Therefore, this study aims to discover the extent of the cultural awareness level accommodated by BIPA learning tools. This study uses a qualitative approach with 9 BIPA teachers who have teaching experience for at least 5 years. The data source consists of learning tools and the results of BIPA instructors’ interviews. Based on the results, it can be concluded that the dominant cultural factors displayed in BIPA learning tools are linguistic systems components. Meanwhile, the highest achievement of the cultural awareness level was achieved by the language system component by reaching the three level (synergistic stage). In other words, BIPA graduates have been able to communicate, but the possibility of still experiencing errors in actions and speech errors when facing the communication context of Indonesian people. So, cultural notes attached in learning tools still do not fully support the achievement of cultural competencies for BIPA graduates.
