Textbooks in the Kaleidoscope

En savoir plus sur le livre

How are textbooks compiled? Who decides what they should contain? How are textbooks used by teachers and students? How should they be used in the future. This groundbreaking new book is an international survey of the recent literature and research on textbooks. Looking at textbookspublished in English, French, German, and the Nordic languages, the author discusses approaches, methods, and results in light of trends in general textbook theory. He also applies perspectives derived from the philosophy of science, education, and linguistics to three main process-oriented, use-oriented, and product-oriented textbook research. His results should prompt new thinking about several concepts that have traditionally dominated textbook research and the textbook genre.
