ABSTRACT

MUMTAZ, ILNAZAL. 2020. A Content Analysis of “When English Rings a Bell”: An English Textbook for Seventh Grade (Ed. 2017). Thesis, English Education Department, Tarbiyah Faculty, State Institute for Islamic Studies of Ponorogo. Advisor Ahmad Nadhif, M.Pd.

Key Word: Content Analysis, English Textbook and Mukundan et al’s Criteria

This research is conducted due to several reasons. The first, there is no scientific works especially in thesis analyzing the newest edition textbook along the researcher’s search. The second, the Mukundan et.al’s checklist has not been used yet in analyzing English textbooks. The third, the researcher selects the textbook because it is the newest edition of three previous editions and although it is published by Ministry of Education and Culture of Indonesia, but there is no guarantee that the materials in the textbook have fulfilled good textbook criteria determined by textbook evaluation experts. The fourth, the researcher selects the checklist because it is developed based on review of similar previous criterion to ensure its construct validity and give the clarity of its sub-aspects. A five-point scale is also added in the checklist to help the evaluators in assessing the textbook based on the criterion. In addition, the checklist can be useful for pre-use, in-use and post-use textbook evaluation purposes.
