Abstract

English is becoming a foreign language in Indonesia. There are several resources that can be used by the teacher and instructor to facilitate the teaching and learning process in gaining the four main English skills. A textbook is becoming one of the learning resources in formal and informal education. The learners are expected to master the source, target, and international culture during the learning process. This research aims to explain the key terms related to the topic being discussed and to identify the importance of bringing images and cultural content into English textbooks for an intercultural classroom atmosphere. A descriptive qualitative study that utilizes the library research methodology is implemented to gather the data for this research. The findings show that images and cultural contents are the important keys as they can get the students’ interest and attention during the class hour, images can also be the representation of how culture is done, and if the images and cultural contents are combined together it will help the students to get the deeper understanding of imagination about things that they cannot see directly at the classroom.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to describe the cultural content of some Indonesian ELT Textbooks based on the intercultural approaches. Intercultural approaches in English Language Teaching may increase the awareness on three things, they are native culture, target culture, and international culture. The data were collected based on three journals that have been written by some Indonesian researchers in the same field of research. They are: Muhammad Iwan Munandar and Imaratul Ulwiyah (2012), Gisela Elshadelin and Mateus Yumarnamto (2020), and Deswila, et al (2021). The method of this study is descriptive qualitative method by using systematic literature review. The journals were taken from Research Gate site and Google Scholar search engine. The findings are presented descriptively by discussing (1) the ELT textbooks that become the sample, (2) the aspects of culture content in each article that can be found in ELT Textbook, (3) and the implication of the cultural representation in each textbook. It is hoped that the discussion from the three journal articles will be helpful for the ELT teachers to get the knowledge about cultural content in each textbook and be more creative to enhance the students’ intercultural competence while learning English as the second language.
