Omschrijving:This article describes the development of didactic suitability indicators for evaluating mathematics textbooks about relations and algebra, intended for third grade of primary education in Costa Rica. The main objective was to develop resources that guide how to evaluate these texts from a multidimensional didactic approach. The research was conducted through content analysis and a systematic review of studies on mathematical pedagogical knowledge. The theoretical framework considered the six dimensions of the didactic suitability of the onto-semiotic approach: epistemic, cognitive, affective, mediational, interactional, and ecological. As a result, six assessment instruments were developed to evaluate textbooks based on these dimensions. These indicators provide teachers with a well founded criterion to select and use school texts in a didactic way, thereby promoting pedagogical decisions aligned with educational goals in accordance with the needs of the school context.
