    Course book evaluation : a retrospective and proyective view
    (Universidad Andrés Bello, 2013) Rojas, Ivonne; Romo, Angélica; Véliz Campos, Mauricio; Facultad de Humanidades y Educación
    This study aims to describe the underlying and explicit mechanisms and criteria used by English language teachers in two privately owned Chilean schools when selecting a new English language textbook in their corresponding contexts. To this end, we used a data-gathering method, namely a survey which balances theoretical and practica! concerns, and which allows for multiple simultaneous evaluations. Results were reviewed and compared, and suggest the schools under consideration share a common mechanism to select textbooks, while they feature both similar and different criteria when selecting a course book. The teachers' opinion on the criteria that should be used to select a textbook was also found to be quite similar in both schools.
