After that, students are provided with foreign cultures of wedding tradition
as a comparison. In this case, the foreign cultures come from Malay, India, and
Bali. Below is an example.
Finally, using this input comparison, students are required to compare their
own culture (Sasak culture) with Malay wedding tradition, Indian wedding
process, and Bali wedding custom. The materials of this comparison are presented
in various cultural aspects of wedding ceremonies. Sentences of comparison can
be seen below.
A Malay wedding has two processes: the akad nikah and bersanding.
While, a Lombok wedding has six processes: kidnapping, nuntut wali, akad
nikah, nyelabar, nyongkolan, and bebales nae.
Indian wedding is structured into four processes: the baraat, vermala,
phere, and vidaat. In contrast with Indian wedding, a Bali wedding has
three processes: the memadik, wedding ceremony, and ‗good bye‘ process.

The IBLL materials were also designed for students to elaborate the values
of the local culture and target culture. For this purpose, students are asked
questions such as: What do you think if you cannot do the Sasak wedding process?
