The essential role of translation in intercultural communication leads to the inclusion of translation as one of the courses in universities worldwide, including Universitas Sumatera Utara (USU), Indonesia. However, little research has been conducted on the development of instructional translation materials. This study aimed to determine the need for digital instructional materials for the Translation Theory course administered in USU’s English Literature Study Program. The need analysis in this research was conducted using a survey method. The participants were the seventh-semester students who had taken the courses on translation, the translation lecturers, and the professional translators. The data were collected using questionnaires and interviews. These instruments were developed based on the document analysis of the previous instructional materials used by the lecturers in teaching the Translation Theory course. The data were analyzed and interpreted using a 4-Point Likert Scale. The results indicated that the instructional materials for a Translation Theory course need to include clear objectives and approaches, topics guiding them to translation theory mastery, and exercises that cover both translation theory and practice. In addition, the results indicate that the participants need the material resources and exercises in a digital form. Although this study was conducted in the context of USU, the findings may be applied as the basis for developing translation courses in other universities in Indonesia, and other countries that treat English as a Foreign Language in their education systems.

Hence, this research examines the satirical jokes found in the @podcastkeselaje Instagram account and The Daily Show With Trevor Noah in order to discuss social phenomenon that exist between different states. The objectives of this study are to classify the types of satire, describe the way of the satirical jokes are delivered in the reel video and The Daily Show, and explain the comparison of satirical jokes found between Indonesian and American culture. The data was collected from 15 reel videos of @podcastkeselaje official Instagram account with a total of 67 utterances, compared to 4 episodes of Trevor Noah’s Show with a total of 11 utterances. This qualitative study employs Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) by Fairclough as the approach and Abrams and Harpham’s concept of satire. Based on the results of the study, Horatian satire (28,2%), Juvenalian satire (20,6%), and Menippean satire (51,2%) are the most frequently found in the reels video. The satirical jokes found in the reel videos were delivered in a direct way, either by serving humor or insulting the target harshly and indirectly expressing the satire to the target. According to the findings, the comparison of Indonesian and American satire is clearly depicted by the similarities in social, political, and racism issues due to similar social backgrounds; if Indonesia consisted of various tribes, America is consisted of various ethnicities. Both of the nations adhere to a democratic system which refers to the implementation of Human Rights no matter what their races, they are totally different in cultural cases related to Eastern and Western norms and values. Therefore, the background of a culture impacts the realization of the satire.
