Language learning is an integral part of education worldwide. The Indonesian language is one of the national languages that needs the use of interactive multimedia in its implementation. The Indonesian language subject teaches aspects of language skills, just like other language subjects, which include four main areas: listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills. This study investigates the effectiveness of utilizing Sawadi Indonesia to enhance the Indonesian language skills of BIPA learners at the beginner level, particularly in daily conversation. This research employs a development research model, also known as R&D (Research and Development). The results of this study indicate that the book is highly effective in enhancing the learning of the Indonesian language for beginner Thai students.
