Abstract

This study aims to design and evaluate SDG-oriented digital learning materials for the Productive Written Language Skill (PWLS) course in alignment with 21st-century learning principles. Responding to the growing need to integrate global citizenship and sustainability into English language education, the materials embed Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) within argumentative writing tasks. A research and development (R&D) approach (Branch, 2010) was employed, involving expert validation, student testing, and classroom observation. Two subject-matter experts assessed the materials and rated them as very good (M = 4.0) in terms of relevance, clarity, and integration of SDG content. Thirty students from the English Education Study Program at Universitas Negeri Medan participated in the implementation stage. Their feedback indicated strong engagement and perceived usefulness (M = 4.16), while pre- and post-test results showed significant improvement in writing performance—from 65.30 to 76.40. Observational data confirmed high student participation and timely task completion, with only minor navigation issues. Overall, the SDG-oriented digital modules effectively supported language development, critical thinking, and 21st-century competencies. The findings imply that SDG-oriented digital materials can effectively foster students’ critical thinking and writing competence in the Productive Written Language Skill course, supporting the goals of 21st-century learning.

Abstract

This study examines the use of satire in Eko Kuntadhi’s Instagram posts within the context of digital political discourse. While previous studies have explored satire in mass media and television, limited attention has been given to satire produced by public figures on social media platforms. This study aims to identify types of satire and analyze their communicative functions using a critical discourse approach. This research employs a qualitative method with discourse analysis. The data consist of 58 satirical statements collected through documentation techniques from Instagram posts. The analysis is based on Abrams and Harpham's classification of satire, combined with critical discourse perspectives, to examine meaning, ideology, and power relations. The findings show that Horatian satire dominates (51.7%), followed by Juvenalian (31%) and Menippean (17.2%). Horatian satire uses humor to persuade, Juvenalian satire expresses moral criticism, and Menippean satire critiques ideological patterns. The study reveals that satire operates not only as a stylistic device but also as a discursive tool that reflects ideological positioning and power relations in digital political communication. This study contributes to linguistic and discourse studies by demonstrating that satire in social media functions as a strategic mechanism for negotiating meaning, ideology, and audience engagement in digital public discourse.
