The development of technology and communication has given birth to the Baby Boomers generation, generation X, generation Y, generation Z, and generation Alpha. Each generation has different characteristics in learning activities. Bahasa Indonesia for foreign speakers (BIPA) can be learned from the Baby Boomers generation to the Alpha generation. Characteristic differences among generations in learning BIPA should be adjusted regarding the learning model used. The suitable learning model for each generation’s characteristic makes the learning BIPA easier for the students and teachers to achieve the learning goals. This study aims to describe the BIPA learning model based on the characteristics from each generation of students. The research method used is literature study. The results of this study are producing BIPA learning model across generation which is consisting of (1) BIPA learning procedure, (2) learning environment, and (3) supporting system in learning. The BIPA learning procedure is the teaching phases developed by BIPA teachers based on the characteristics of the BIPA student’s generation with the purpose of achieving the competency standards. The learning environment is created based on the social system and the characteristics of the BIPA students’ generation. The support system for the across generations BIPA learning model consists of learning resources, learning media, and teaching materials that are adjusted to the characteristics of the generation of BIPA students.
