Abstract
This study aimed to analyze and evaluate the reading comprehension component in the selected Grades 7 and 8 English and Filipino textbooks used by the selected private schools in Cebu City. Content analysis and text analysis were used as research designs in evaluating the 21 textbooks used during the academic year 2012-2013 and academic year 2013-2014. Results in English textbooks revealed that among the competencies, strategies predominated among schema building, literary texts, and expository texts whereas in Grade 7 & 8 Filipino textbooks, schema building and strategies predominated. Grade 7 & Grade 8 English Textbooks used by USC South Campus and Sacred Heart of Jesus - Hijas de Jesus met the K to 12 Guidelines for reading comprehension set by the Department of Education. Moreover, Grade 7 & Grade 8 Filipino textbooks used by St. Theresa’s College only met the standards. Consequently, these textbooks are recommended to be used for Grade 7 and Grade 8 students in private schools.
本研究旨在分析和评估宿务市选定私立学校所使用的七年级和八年级英语和菲律宾语教科书中的阅读理解部分。采用内容分析和文本分析作为研究设计,对2012-2013学年和2013-2014学年使用的21本教科书进行评价。结果显示,在英语教材中,策略在图式建构、文学篇章和说明文篇章中占主导地位,而在七、八年级菲律宾语教材中,策略在图式建构和策略中占主导地位。南加州大学南校区使用的七年级和八年级英语教材和耶稣圣心- Hijas de Jesus符合教育部制定的K至12年级阅读理解指南。此外,圣特蕾莎学院使用的七年级和八年级菲律宾语教科书仅符合标准。因此,这些教科书被推荐给私立学校的七年级和八年级学生使用。
