English Abstract

The use of local culture content in textbooks is believed to ease students' understanding of English because local culture content preserves students' identities and provides them with engagement, familiarity, and relevance. Thus, English books developed based on local values are considered to be able to make elementary school students learn English while still possessing a strong local character. Concerning the use of textbooks with local culture, it is also worth investigating students' perceptions because it can be found out whether the use of local culture in learning has been felt and well received or not. This study used a qualitative approach with content analysis and survey study. The researcher used the textbook checklist to analyze local culture content in textbooks and interviews and observations as instruments in knowing students' perception of English with local culture content in their textbooks. The respondents were 20 fourth-grade students of SD Muhammadiyah 8 “K.H. Mas Mansyur” Malang. The results of the study showed that the textbooks used by the students had local culture content in the form of person and product dimensions. In addition, students had a positive response toward the use of local culture content in their textbooks. Most students agreed that the use of local culture in textbooks made it easier for them to learn English. They also thought that textbooks with local culture content were more interesting. In addition, for future research on similar topics, researchers can add more specific questions and teachers' perceptions so that the data obtained are more detailed and complete as a whole unit.
