Advantages of using textbook in classroom Improves FluencyPhysically holding a book and turning to the necessary
page helps the brain process the information and increases reading fluency.
Textbooks provide a medium that is more easily processed and understood by the brain.
Material is Organized LogicallyTextbooks are broken down into chronological chapters
that present information logically. helps students make connections between concepts and
identify necessary details.
10
Sources are CredibleSecondary sources such as blogs, articles and videos
may not have author credibility, but textbooks are written by professionals highly qualified in their fields.
• Progress can be measured Using textbooks is that they are essential for students
since their progress and achievement can be measured concretely when we use them.
Resources for TeachersTextbooks are divided in chapters, teachers find them
reliable by following them as they are in teaching.Support for less experienced teachers who have yet to
gain in confidence.
11
Mobility Using textbook easy for students to carry along
with them. Textbooks are more flexible than e-books in
supporting a wide range of reading and learning styles.

Disadvantages

Weaknesses Student Difficulty
Ways of Overcoming Problem
The textbook is designed as a sole source of information.
Students only see one perspective on a concept or issue.
Provide students with lots of information sources such as trade books, CD-ROMS, websites, encyclopaedias, etc.
Textbook is old or outdated.
Information shared with students is not current or relevant.
Use textbook sparingly or supplement with other materials.
14
Textbook questions tend to be low level or fact-based.
Students assume that learning is simply a collection of facts and figures.
Ask higher-level questions and provide creative thinking and problem-solving activities.
Textbook doesn't take students' background knowledge into account.
Teacher does not tailor lessons to the specific attributes and interests of students.
Discover what students know about a topic prior to teaching. Design the lesson based on that knowledge.
Reading level of the textbook is too difficult.
Students cannot read or understand important concepts.
Use lots of supplemental materials such as library books, Internet, CD-ROMs, etc.
The textbook has all the answer to all the questions.
Students tend to see learning as an accumulation of correct answers.
Involve students in problem-solving activities, higher-level thinking questions, and extending activities.
