Abstract

The aim of present paper is to investigate and analysis of the content of activities, text and images of 6th grade math book in 2013 based on William Rummy and analysis of activities, exercises and problems according to Bloom cognitive categories. The method used in this research is content analysis. Statistical community of the work is the 6th grade math book published in year 2013. Results of research demonstrated that engagement coefficient of activities, text and images are 0.85, 1.5 and 1.85, respectively which implies that these parts of math book are written in an active manner. Engagement coefficient of images as much as 1.85 shows that images of the book engages the student in learning process. Moreover, engagement coefficient of exercises is determined to be 1.2 which shows that exercises are written in an active manner. Furthermore, in part of analysis of activity based index, engagement activity is determined to be 0.85 which shows that the book is activity based. In part of analysis based on Bloom cognitive categories, it is found out that 79.68% of activities and exercises of the book are in the level of understanding, 16.60% are in the level of application and 2.63% are in the level of analysis. This analysis showed that within book, number of exercises, activities and problems in the highest level of recognition category are limited.
