The Indonesian language learning program for foreign speakers (BIPA) is currently the government's focus in its efforts to internationalize Indonesian as the language of international communication. BIPA students will learn four language skills: listening, speaking, reading, and writing. The selection of attractive learning media will ease them in learning Indonesian. This study aimed to engage local wisdom as a medium of learning for BIPA students in Surakarta. In this context, Surakarta's local wisdom included tourist attractions, historical places, cuisine, and the local community's culture. This research employed a qualitative design involving a case study approach. The data were obtained from document analysis, observation, and interviews with BIPA students in Surakarta. The data validity was achieved by administering the triangulation of technique and source. The findings indicated that videos, as learning media containing Surakarta local wisdom, could increase BIPA students' enthusiasm to learn Indonesian and local culture. Aside from being a part of Indonesian language learning, local wisdom could also be a medium to promote Surakarta tourism to foreign tourists. BIPA students acquired vocabulary commonly used by the local community. In addition, they also comprehended the culture of the Surakarta people; hastalaku (eight Javanese behaviors). It helped them adapt to the social life of the community. [For the full proceedings, see ED630948.]
