Text Book Analysis A3

A.  Background of the Analysis

Textbook analysis is defined as the focusing study to decide the quality and study the
features of a textbook. Textbook has a significant function particularly for the teachers and
learners in teaching-learning process. As stated by Nunan (1985: 2), the present book is intended
to provide teachers with the skills they need to address in a systematic fashion, the problems and
tasks which confront them in their programmed planning. Textbook is important to maintain the
teaching-learning process. According to Cunningsworth (1995:7), textbooks are best seen as a
source in achieving aims and objectives that have already been set in terms of learner’s needs. It
means that a textbook is a material design for teachinglearning process which is to improve the
learner’s comprehension and occur.
The presence of textbook is necessary to support the function of teaching-learning
process. As stated by Brown (1994: 14), the most obvious and most common form of material
support for language instruction comes through textbooks. The statement means that the most
common factor to support the success of teaching-learning process is textbook. Textbook is
provided to help the students understand the material that is suitable with the curriculum.
Textbooks have to be completed with other supplementary materials.
The main part of teaching and learning activity is a good material for students. One of the
basic things in teaching material is text book. Textbook is a manual of instruction in any branch
of study. Textbooks are produced according to the demands of educational institutions.
As the main things in teaching material, textbook is used in every school and course.
Nowadays, textbook is a main device to deliver the material to students even at their homes. The
students can use textbook to practice their understanding about the material from the teacher.
They can also develop their skill by reading textbook.
           Sometimes, the quality of textbooks, in senior high schools in Bali particularly, is
not yet so satisfying. Many textbooks which are used in senior high schools in Bali do not have a
good standard as a textbook. As a matter of fact, the writer’s wish is to provide valuable
informative analysis about textbook and suggest the criteria of the good textbook.

E. DISCUSSION

I.  Criteria of the Good Textbook

1.) The contents in interesting for students,
because there are so many described all the good activities for students that can make
students excited about learning and active. The meaning of interesting is a good
materials can influent the learners attention. The materials should be able to attract the
attention of students to learn it. The book must be interesting and attractive toward the
learners. So, they will be interested in using textbook and for the meaning of meaningful
is a good material should be useful to the learner. It means that the materials should help
the learners to increase their ability in language.
2.) It develops the motivation,
The meaning of motivating is a good material should motivate learners to learn by
themselves. It can achieve when the materials contain the words or sentences that can
motivate the students to learn the materials more, but the motivation in this textbook is
somewhat different from other books, in other books it may be obvious that motivation is
in the form of "quotes" which really provide direct motivation to the reader. For the book
this time is different, the motivation in here is a short excerpt which contains words that
motivate indirectly.
3.) It has good illustration, from the beginning of this chapter to the end, contains lots of
interesting and good illustrations, this really helps students in their interest in reading this
book. Illustration means to illustrate or highlight a particular point. The main purpose of
illustration is to get a message across to the readers. Some of theillustrations are
absolutely breath taking but their job is to elaborate and clarify the meaning of the text.
Illustrations are capable of transforming a simple story into an exciting and fascinating
one.
4.) It has consider linguistics aspect.
The textbook should consider the linguistic aspect. So, it will be suitable with the learner’s
ability.
5.) The book has a relation to another subject ,
This book has other lessons besides learning English, because other learning can also
hone the skills of students or readers. For example in this book it has this Global Warning
as the subject to increase their knowledge.

criteria , there are many various activities or exercises to stimulate students. for example,
group activities, answering multiple choice, and reading the conversation.
7.) The concept is clear enough, from beginning until the materials activity of A-G's
activities is quite clear and very detailed and neatly packed.

8.) This material consists of good point material and related to the syllabus.
9.) A criteria that must be fulfilled for book to be a good one must have moral value. The
material has moral value as the students we should never tolerate any kind of acts that
will end up with bullying.

10). In the material there is also respect for differences in expressing opinions.
Respecting other's way of thinking, irrespective of how you think is the perfect way of
living, as it is a fundamental right & cannot be questioned. Added to that, your own
thinking do not take you long way down the life & is necessary to respect other's
thoughts & views, even if you do not follow them completely.

G. CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTION

1. Conclusion
Textbook is defined as a manual of instruction in any branch of study. Textbooks are
produced according to the demands of educational institutions. There are several criteria of
the good textbook: it has a good point of view, the concept is clear enough, it is relevant
 with curriculum, the contents are interesting for students, it stimulates the students,
illustrative, and communicative. In analyzing a textbook, we have to compare it with the
syllabus. After doing the analysis, we can know whether the textbook is appropriate or not.
 The quality: The quality of textbooks, in senior high schools particularly, is not yet so
satisfying.Many textbooks which are used in senior do not have a good standard as a
textbook. As a matter of fact, we wish to provide valuable informative analysis about
textbook and suggest the criteria of the good textbook.
 Relevancy: As the main things in teaching material, textbook is used in every school and
course. Text book is a main device to deliver the material to students even at their homes.
The students can use textbook to practice their understanding about the material from the
teacher. They can also develop their skill by reading textbook.

2. Suggestion
 Textbook becomes so important in recent years, so we have to concern about the
use of it.
 Teacher has to analyze the textbook first before uses it for teaching.
 Teacher has to combine the good textbook with the good methods in teaching.
