意思
Stating your current activity of learning.
文化背景
Education is seen as the primary path to social mobility. Parents often sacrifice a lot to ensure their children can say 'Saya sedang belajar' in a good school. The 'Cafe Study' culture is huge. You will see thousands of young people 'sedang belajar' in Starbucks or local coffee shops (Kopi Kenangan) using free Wi-Fi. Indonesian students often study in groups (belajar kelompok). It is a very social activity compared to the solitary study habits in some Western cultures. Using this phrase with locals usually triggers a 'supportive' mode where Indonesians will try to help you with your vocabulary.
Drop the 'Saya'
In casual speech, if it's clear you're talking about yourself, just say 'Sedang belajar' or 'Lagi belajar'.
Don't use 'Adalah'
Never say 'Saya adalah sedang belajar'. It's a common mistake for English speakers.

The Humble Brag
Saying 'Saya masih sedang belajar' when you are actually quite good at something is a very Indonesian way to show humility (rendah hati).
