“…Numerous studies focus on detailed content analysis of English textbook. Starting from Glory et al (2017), this study intended to ascertain the classification of material and task in the Kemendikbud 2014 Bahasa Inggris Textbook for Senior High School. The descriptive quantitative research design was used in this study.…”
The objective of this study is to use Bloom's revised taxonomy to analyze the context of the grammar activities in Wider World 2 Student’s Book. To achieve the research goal, a content analysis was performed. The researcher analyzed the textbook based on Bloom's revised taxonomy. According to the data, the textbook has dominant grammar activities, particularly on the cognitive process of "understand" and "remember" with 47% and 32% out of 189 grammar activities. Moreover, the data shows that the grammar activities in the textbook have an uneven distribution of higher and lower cognitive processes. There is a vast lower thinking skills percentage since most grammar activities focus on the "understand" aspect. While the second dominant aspect is "remember" which includes lower thinking skills. Therefore, Wider World 2 Students’ Book highlights Bloom’s revised taxonomy’s lower cognitive thinking process, represented by the “understand” and “remember” thinking processes.

“…Presently, there are heterogeneous English textbooks published by local and international publishers-a few attempt to present textbooks in different styles and settings based on the Indonesian curriculum's implementation. Teachers should choose the integrated textbook with the latest curriculum used at school (Glory et al, 2017). The function of the textbook is to be used as an instructional guide.…”
This study aims to answer the questions related to the Cultural perspective including cultural categories from Cortazzi and Jin (1999) and cultural dimension from Moran (2001). To answer these questions, descriptive qualitative analysis was used. This research focused on the English student textbook "Bahasa Inggris," published by the Indonesian Ministry of Education and Culture in 2018 for the 12th Grade of Senior High School. The data was collected through reading, comprehending, analyzing, and gathering information from books and in-depth interview with students, as well as through focus group discussions with fellow teachers. The analysis indicates that the "Bahasa Inggris" textbook for twelfth-grade students effectively incorporates cultural perspectives from Cortazzi and Jin (1999) as well as cultural dimensions from Moran (2001). This textbook serves a valuable tool for enhancing students' cultural awareness by encompassing Cultural Content from Cortazzi and Jin (1999), such as Source Culture, Target Culture, and International Culture, and Cultural Dimensions from Moran (2001), including Products, Practices, Perspectives, Communities, and Persons, thereby enriching students' cultural understanding through content and personal experiences. Therefore, the textbook is well-suited for senior/vocational high school twelfth-graders. It enhances students' comprehension of everyday life and cultural facets, making it an invaluable resource for teaching and learning. However, there is a need for substantial improvements to effectively address its weaknesses.
“…To enhance the reading comprehension of English students, the role of English textbooks used in schools also needs to be considered. Various studies using content analysis have been done to measure the qualities of English textbooks used in senior high schools (Betri, 2018;Dilla et al, 2017;Kinasih, 2014). The studies conducted by Kinasih (2014) and Betri (2018) show that the analysed English textbooks were categorized as good according to the evaluation aspects from Pusbuk (Pusat Perbukuan or bookkeeping centre) 2007 and BSNP (Badan Standar Nasional Pendidikan or National Education Standards Agency).…”

“…Despite several studies on the HFWs and the evaluation of English textbooks have been conducted in the Indonesian context (Betri, 2018;Dilla et al, 2017;Hayes, 2016;Hinzman & Reed, 2018;Kinasih, 2014;Masrai, 2019;Murray & Kelly, 2018), there have been few studies discussing textbook analysis on HFWs. In relation to the significance of vocabulary mastery, a study of HFWs in senior high school English textbooks needs to be conducted.…”
This content analysis study focused on three main purposes, including to analyse the High Frequency Words (HFWs) of Dolch’s list in reading texts from three English textbooks of Indonesian senior high schools, to analyse the language features of HFWs in reading texts of the English textbooks, and to propose strategies that can be used in teaching HFWs. The reading texts were grouped into three types including recount text, narrative text, and descriptive text. The reading texts were further analysed using an online word-counter to find out the HFWs of Dolch’s list in the texts. The findings show that there were 124 words found as the HFWs. The HFWs found were mostly articles, prepositions, pronouns, nouns, verbs, adverbs, adjectives, and conjunctions. Those were the most frequent words that should be known by students. Moreover, the language features of HFWs in each text were varied according to its context and the types of the texts. Hence, some strategies could be applied to facilitate English teachers in teaching HFWs, such as the word card strategy and direct teaching strategy, so that their students master the HFWs. The implication of this study also suggested textbook writers to provide additional content in textbooks such as the word list of HFWs.
