ABSTRAK

In Indonesia, the awareness of gender equality in school textbooks still needs paying attention. As an attempt to fill this gap, the ninth grade ELT textbook of Junior High School was researched. This study has two objectives: (1) to find out the gender construction in visual images found in the ninth grade ELT textbook of Junior High School published by Indonesian Ministry of Education and Culture; (2) to explain the representation of gender biasness and stereotyping in the visual images of the ninth grade ELT textbook of Junior High School published by Indonesian Ministry of Education and Culture. This study is a qualitative research study that employed textual analysis combined with discourse analysis. In collecting the data, textual analysis for analyzing gender representation proposed by Kress and Van Leeuwen (2006) adopted by Painter and Martin (2010) and Van Leeuwen (2008) was used and adapted in some parts to answer the research questions. The results revealed that (1) females relatively were constructed to be slightly more dominant than males in the textbook; (2) gender biasness and gender stereotypes were still found in the textbook. Here, it could be concluded that there were different portions in representing gender in this textbook which drove to the gender biasness. Then, it also affected gender stereotypes since they are constructed based on general views about the range of characteristics related to the culture and social divisions between males and females. Therefore, sociocultural background of the authors influenced them to determine the contents of the textbooks
