Abstract

Instagram Digital Storytelling is a teaching method in which students use or create, compose, and share narratives using various features; this is not just uploading photos, but a pedagogical process. This study examines students' and lecturers' interpretations of the use of Instagram digital storytelling in English literature learning. The data were collected through semi-structured interviews with three lecturers and fifteen students, as well as documentation in the form of Instagram content, learning notes, and student interpretive assignments. The results showed that students interpreted digital storytelling on Instagram as a multimodal literary text that combines captions, images, colors, videos, sounds, symbols, expressions, and personal experiences. Student interpretations focused not only on plot and messages but also encompassed moral, social, and humanistic values ​​such as empathy, responsibility, respect for differences, and concern for human emotional experiences. Furthermore, Instagram increased student engagement emotionally, cognitively, and behaviorally through discussions, comments, content creation, assignment uploads, and literary reflections. However, the use of Instagram also faces challenges such as shallow content, the dominance of visual aspects, potential distractions, misinterpretations, technical limitations, and the need for lecturer guidance. Therefore, Instagram is most effectively used as a complementary medium before students are directed to more in-depth literary analysis.

Abstract

Framed from a qualitative content analysis, this study aims to examine cultural representations and the promotion of intercultural communicative competence within three Kurikulum Merdeka textbooks: Work in Progress (Grade 10), English for Change (Grade 11), and Life Today (Grade 12). The findings indicate that cultural products are more prominently represented than persons, perspectives, and practices. In terms of Kachru’s three circles, expanding circle cultures—primarily Indonesian cultures—are overwhelmingly represented, whereas inner circle and outer circle cultures receive comparatively limited attention. Regarding ICC dimensions, the textbooks show stronger emphasis on the development of knowledge than attitudes and critical cultural awareness. Moreover, the skills of interpreting/relating and discovery/interaction are insufficiently addressed. The study recommends a more balanced representation of cultural aspects across the three circles, along with a more systematic integration of intercultural communicative competence. This study provides empirical evidence of the gap between the goals of the Kurikulum Merdeka and the implementation of the curriculum in the textbooks. It provides practical guidance for textbook developers, curriculum designers, and educators to create more balanced materials that systematically integrate ICC, especially the interpreting/relating and discovery/interaction dimensions, which are still underdeveloped, enabling Indonesian students to develop both cultural roots and global intercultural competencies.

Abstract

This paper aims to analyze the policy and political dynamics of ICT governance in encouraging entrepreneurial university transformation through the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach. The research method was carried out by examining various reputable scientific articles published in the range of 2015–2025 and obtained from the Scopus database, Web of Science, ScienceDirect, SpringerLink, and Google Scholar. The literature selection process follows the stages of identification, screening, eligibility, and inclusion based on the PRISMA guidelines. The results show that effective ICT governance is determined by the integration of digital policies, strategic leadership, regulatory support, infrastructure investment, and the involvement of various stakeholders in the decision-making process. In addition, institutional political dynamics have a significant impact on the successful implementation of digital transformation through resource distribution, policy priorities, and strengthening the culture of innovation. The research findings also identify various challenges, such as digital capacity gaps, organizational resistance to change, and mis synchronization between national policies and institutional needs. This study concludes that the synergy between adaptive ICT policies, participatory governance, and transformational leadership is a key factor in accelerating the transformation of universities towards an innovative, competitive, and sustainable entrepreneurial university model.
