Abstract

The certificate for Indonesian German students (ZIDS) has to be acquired by the German students at some universities in Indonesia. This test is carried out once a year in Department of German Language Educations. The participants of this test are German students in the 4th semester. Within the scope of the ZIDS test, the Department of German Language Education of the Faculty of Languages ??and Literature of the Pedagogical University of Indonesia (FPBS UPI) has offered an intensive one-month preparatory program. Based on their average score, which is 60-70%, the students show no excellent performance. Since the Curriculum 2013 of the UPI comes into force, this preparation program is being carried out regularly in a semester. As the present preparation program is less intensive than before, an innovation is needed to improve the performance of the students in the ZIDS test. The intended innovation is the development of the online ZIDS test simulation based on the LMS Moodle, which allows students to prepare themselves for the test alone or outside the classroom. The results of the study demonstrate that the ZIDS test stimulation has contributed to the performance improvement of the students in the ZIDS test.
