Abstract

Standardized tests remain crucial for students whose first language is not English in today’s globalized world, despite ongoing debates about their suitability. The purpose of this research is to develop an academic English proficiency test for higher education in Indonesia. The data were derived from a needs analysis conducted through focus group discussions (FGDs) and a pre-survey for the existing academic English proficiency test, followed by a test design process: creating a test blueprint and developing question items, and a second survey following a trial test with 538 test takers. The findings indicate that adjustments were required to the test format and duration, a basis for developing a new test format. Additionally, students reported a preference for computer-based tests. During the test design process, the research team revised the test, retained the test objectives, and modified the test item types. Lastly, post-test feedback and item analysis indicated an imbalance in item difficulty in the Structure and Written Expression section, while the Academic Listening and Academic Reading sections demonstrated relatively balanced difficulty levels. Overall, the findings of this research indicate a desire to revisit and refine the existing test to better meet students’ needs while maintaining its objectives.

Abstract

Young Indonesian diaspora members in Germany face cultural erosion because they have limited access to structured heritage learning. This overseas community service program (Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat Luar Negeri/PkM-LN) aimed to facilitate intergenerational cultural transmission and strengthen diaspora students' cultural identity through shibori batik training. The Shibori Batik Workshop was held from 11-16 June 2026 at Otto von Guericke University (OvGU) Magdeburg, Germany, through collaboration among three Indonesian universities, UPI, Unesa, and Unpas, using Community-Based Participatory Action Research (CBPAR) and experiential learning. Researchers selected 22 students using criteria-based purposive sampling (total sampling), facilitated by UPI graduate students in Technology and Vocational Education. We measured effectiveness with pre- and post-tests of 30 multiple-choice items covering shibori techniques, batik's cultural values and philosophy, the creative economy, cultural diplomacy, and the SDGs. On average, all participants improved. The program also produced shibori works by all participants, explored a joint textile-craft module with OvGU, and expanded European partnership networks. Batik training proved effective as a medium of cultural transmission and an instrument of cultural diplomacy.
