Abstract
This research attempted to discover whether or not the English textbooks analyzed met the criteria of a good textbook suggested by Pusat Perbukuan (Pusbuk) and whether they were relevant to the 2013 Curriculum and to find out how those criteria were fulfilled or not by those textbooks and in what way the textbooks were relevant to 2013 curriculum. This research which was a content analysis contained the stages: referring to criteria for English textbook evaluation issued by Pusbuk in 2007 and making some modification to suit the 2013 Curriculum; deciding on the subjects, that were English textbooks entitled Look Ahead: An English Course for Senior High School Student for Grade X Pathway to English for Senior high School for Grade X; applying the criteria for evaluating the textbooks using a simple tick and cross system as judgments; analysing the textbook; and interpreting the findings and stating conclusions. The data were gathered by evaluating the two English textbooks using checklists for textbooks evaluation criteria. In the data analysis technique, the total of criteria points which were met in a workbook for each sub aspect was divided by the total of criteria points in each sub aspect times 100%. For ensuring the credibility of the reserach, consensus was applied in which the research supervisor was the reviewer in evaluating the textbooks. The result confirmed that Look Ahead had met the criteria of good textbook with the fulfillment 86% with coverage 75% for relevance of the materials to the curriculum, 100% for material accuracy, 80% for supporting learning materials, 75% for language appropriateness, 100% for presentation technique, 100% for teaching and learning technique, and 70% for presentation coverage. Meanwhile, Pathway to English had met the criteria of fair textbook with the fulfillment 67% with coverage 83% for relevance of materials to the curriculum, 86% for material accuracy, 60% for supporting learning materials, 38% for language appropriateness, 67% for presentation technique, 87% for teaching and learning technique, and 50% for presentation coverage. Look Ahead was not relevant to the 2013 Curriculum in terms of content due to the absence of presentational texts and activities and character building. Pathway to English was relevant to the 2013 Curriculum due to the presentational activities and activities for character building. It was recommended that teachers modify the textbooks to suit 2013 curriculum and adapt the difficuties to suit learners’ cognitive development.
