Abstract

This study conducted a genre analysis to determine the representations in primary school science textbooks. Multiple representations in textbooks indicate multimodality. This study adopted a multimodal genre analysis approach to review the multiple representations in textbooks within the framework of the 'scientific' genre. The sample consisted of two primary school textbooks taught to third and fourth graders within the scope of 'the science' course in the 2021-2022 academic year. The data were gathered based on document analysis and analyzed using content analysis. Frequency and percentage were used for analysis. The results show that the most common representations in the textbooks are photographs and iconic diagrams. The third-grade textbook has more representations than the fourth-grade textbook. The representations in the textbooks are primarily associated with the scientific genres 'explanation' and 'information report.' Of the scientific genres in the textbooks, photographs are primarily used in 'information report,' 'explanation,' and 'narration.' Iconic diagram representation is preferred in 'experimental,' 'argumentative,' and 'technical procedure.' Certain representations are predominantly used in the textbooks, indicating that the textbooks lack a diversity of representations. In addition, the scientific genres are underrepresented in the textbooks, suggesting that the textbooks underutilize the advantages offered by different types of representations. We recommend that textbooks should be enriched with representations and scientific genres.
