Abstract

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the Palestinian Arabic Language Textbook, “Our Beautiful Language,” for first grade from the viewpoint of the teachers. The study also identified the significance of evaluating textbooks. For this purpose, a mixed methods research design was used to measure the extent to which the Palestinian Arabic language textbook meets the characteristics of a good textbook from the point of view of the teachers of Arabic language for the first grade of primary public schools. This method allows us to collect both quantitative (survey) and qualitative data (interview) data. According to the research results, the textbook still has a specific weakness and deficiency in the psycho-cognitive dimension despite the Palestinian Ministry of Education’s efforts to develop the curriculum. To improve textbooks through a national reform strategy, they must be freed from the constraints to which they are currently subject. To accomplish this, it is necessary to adopt the high standards for content creation established by textbook research centers.
