The Attitude of Iranian EFL Teachers towards the Junior High School Textbook: Prospect 1
Textbooks are an important part of a curriculum so textbook evaluation seems to be inevitable and necessary, especially in countries where the textbooks are developed by the Ministry of Education and not selected by the EFL teachers. Since a new English book has been developed for the 7th grade students in Iran, this study aimed at evaluating the newly developed textbook from the perspective of the teachers who had used it in their classroom instruction. To accomplish the study, a questionnaire was developed to evaluate the book based on six domains, namely, structure and vocabulary, general theme, appearance and illustrations, dialogues, exercises and activities, and supplementary materials. The findings revealed that most EFL teachers were satisfied with the general theme, appearance and illustrations, and supplementary materials, while nearly half of them were not satisfied with the dialogues, vocabulary and structure, and exercises and activities. It can be concluded that, in spite of some privileges, the book is in urgent need of revision and modification.
