Reflective Model of Teaching Indonesian for Foreign Speakers Integrated with Pragmatic Contexts

Enthusiasm to integrate pragmatic contexts in BIPA learning is increasing. It is understandable because communicative competence in BIPA learning cannot be limited to understanding the Indonesian grammatical rules, memorizing the list of vocabulary, and learning the pronunciation of the words. However, how to integrate pragmatic contexts in the learning materials is not a simple matter. This research aims to describe the reflective learning model used in BIPA learning which integrates pragmatic contexts. The approach used in this research is qualitative. The research data are the needs analysis of the reflective learning model and its rationale. The research data sources are gathered from many references and opinions of experts of high authority in BIPA learning. The researchers’ pedagogic intuition also greatly contributes to the data for analysis. The collected data are classified and typified. Data analysis is carried out when the data have been classified and typified properly. The analysis method used in this research is the content analysis method. The research results describe the needs analysis to develop a reflective learning model and its rationale in the BIPA learning materials integrating pragmatic contexts. This research has a practical benefit to provide an alternative model of BIPA learning. Theoretically, this research contributes greatly to the development of linguistics, particularly in regards to BIPA learning.
