dc.description.abstractThe purposes of this study are: 1) to investigate learners' and teachers' perceptions and evaluations of 40 illustrations in a new South African school textbook for Natural Science and Technology, and 2) to compare assessments of the illustrations made by different groups of users, e.g. by classes in advantaged and disadvantaged schools; learners speaking different home language; learners of different grade levels; biology teachers compared with biology learners; and so on. Repeated null hypotheses are used to test each dependent variable against each independent variable. These are: 1) That, when rating the quality of a given textbook illustrations, no significant differences will occur between the expressed levels of satisfaction of two given samples of respondents (e.g. the disadvantaged and advantaged learners; the grade 8 and grade 9 learners; the high school and primary school teachers; and the science learners and the science teachers).en_ZA
