Abstract

Efforts to internationalize the Indonesian language have resulted in the establishment of BIPA programs at several Indonesian and foreign universities. There is no doubt that Indonesian exists on the international stage. Numerous universities in Asia and Europe already include Indonesian as a required subject in their curricula. According to researchers' observations of the BIPA program at several universities in Indonesia, there are still numerous shortcomings of a good management system: lecturers' teaching materials do not reflect local culture, teaching strategies are not yet applicable, and media development is less diverse and innovative. The issue at hand is how to use E-PUB media in the digital era to build the capacity of Indonesian language teachers for foreign speakers (BIPA). This research employed a qualitative study with a descriptive approach, thus the data analysis used descriptive statistical analysis. The subjects of this study, or data sources, were LPPI tutors. In BIPA learning, E-PUB applications form data. Data collection methods include observation, interviewing, and documenting. The research findings have resulted in the implementation of E-PUB, which has the potential to increase the professionalism of BIPA tutors.
