The study aimed at evaluating 9-10th grade textbook from teachers’
perspective. This study highlights the perception of teachers on an evaluation of
English language textbook. To achieve this goal, an evaluation scale was developed
on the basis of language teaching and learning criteria that determine the
specifications of good quality textbook. The sample of the study consisted of 45 male
and female secondary school teachers. The researchers developed a 31-item
questionnaire and one open-ended to evaluate the textbook. Alpha formula was used
in order to determine the reliability of the questionnaire. Descriptive statistics were
carried out to interpret the data. The questionnaire included six main domains:
attractiveness of the text and physical make-up, subject and content, exercises and
activities, language type, language skills and context. The findings showed that the
degree of evaluation was moderate. However, there were no significant differences in
the degree of evaluation of the textbook.
