Abstract:   (755 Views)
 Given the importance of economic education/training, it is of as important to see the extent to which the junior high school curriculum contains topics related to this field. To this end, all the textbooks used at the junior high level, at the time of the study, were content analyzed using Shannon entropy method and an observation list of themes/concepts related to economic training, with an assumed validity, and the reliability of 0.9. Counting the frequencies of the observed themes, a total of 1184 was observed of which 418 of them were in the 7th grade textbooks, 375 in the 8th grade, and 391 in the 9th grade textbooks. Not all of these themes are equally covered, just as some are not covered at all. For example, the concept of appropriation is the most frequent topic covered across the grades, while things like task division and risk are ignored in all three grades textbooks. It was found that the Social Studies textbook has the most extensive coverage of economic themes, while the Culture & Art and Defense Preparation textbooks are at the lowest rank. Thus, a revamping of the textbooks used in junior high school level seems to be necessary.
