Same textbook, different points of view: students and teachers as textbook users

The utilization of textbooks by mathematics teachers has been the subject of many recent studies ; students’ opinions, however, have not received such attention. The study presented in this paper aims to investigate both students’ and their teacher’s ways of and reasons for using the textbook, with an emphasis on the vertices of the Socio-Didactical Tetrahedron. The findings indicate that the beliefs about being a teacher and about being a student strongly influence textbook utilization. Also, the students’ use of the textbook is influenced by the teacher’s intentions. Here the extension of the didactical tetrahedron to a socio- didactical tetrahedron proved to be very valuable due to the social factors involved in textbook use.
