This study aims to evaluate the instructional materials of Indonesian for Speakers of Other Languages (BIPA) textbooks at C1–C2 level published by the Association of BIPA Programs (APPBIPA) using the Outcome-Based Education (OBE) framework. The OBE approach emphasizes constructive alignment among Intended Learning Outcomes (ILOs), Teaching and Learning Activities (TLAs), and Assessment Tasks (ATs). The research employs content analysis with OBE-based evaluation instruments across four dimensions, combined with a comparison against CEFR C1–C2 descriptors. Data were collected through document review, expert rating sheets from five specialists in BIPA and foreign language instruction, and focused interviews with three experienced BIPA instructors. Results indicate that the APPBIPA C1–C2 textbooks demonstrate generally good material quality with an overall mean score of 3.58 out of 4.00, showing strengths in academic content depth (3.81) and alignment of learning outcomes with CEFR descriptors (3.72). However, weaknesses were identified in the completeness of authentic assessment instruments (3.28) and inter-component constructive alignment (3.44). This study recommends strengthening competency-based rubrics, adding higher-order thinking tasks (HOTS), and more explicitly integrating portfolio assessment into the book structure.
