چکیده | ||
Creativity and culture are two intertwined but most unexplored phenomena in language linguistic discipline, especially in English textbooks’ domains. Hence, the purpose of the study was 1) to investigate the existence and distribution of cultural and creativity-related contents in two ELT textbooks based on Cortazzi and Jin’s (1999) textbook classification and investment theory of creativity, and2) to examine the confluence of creativity components and culture elements. Using basic content analysis, the researcher analyzed the creative components and cultural elements of two ELT textbooks prepared and utilized in Iran (localized textbook) and the UK (internationalized textbook). The researcher found that the ELT textbooks of Iran (Prospect1) and UK(Teen2Teen1) both included components of creativity. In Iranian prospect 1, knowledge was the most prominent element but in internationalized Teen2Teen1(UK) book, intelligence, motivation, environment and personality were mostly observed. Furthermore, the findings revealed that in the localized textbook (Prospect1) except for source products, the other elements of culture such as persons, practice, and perspectives are absent. On the other hand, in internationalized Teen2Teen book1, the global products of culture are mostly presented and the other elements such as persons, practice, and perspectives are underrepresented. Thus, this study’s findings can help policy makers, material designers and teachers to modify the content of ELT textbooks to obtain better advantages. | ||
