Abstract

As the primary teaching material for the learning process carried out in school, textbooks contribute to the development of students’ scientific literacy. This study examines the literacy element of scientific literacy in Biology textbooks commonly used in Indonesian high schools. This analysis process involved four aspects of scientific literacy. A scientific literacy analysis was carried out on seven highly used Biology textbooks in senior high schools. The results suggest that the textbooks have properly involved the scientific literacy aspects, primarily in the aspect of science as a body of knowledge (85.89%), science as a way of thinking (68.1%), and science as a means of investigation (65.54%). Meanwhile, the textbooks only moderately discuss the aspect of the interaction of science, technology, and society (57.32%). Consequently, improvements in the content of biology textbooks on the aspect of scientific literacy are required to grow scientific literacy skills through teaching and learning in schools.
