| Beskrivelse: | [Objective] This paper aims to describe textbook tasks from the perspective of content analysis to demonstrate the relationship between the book and the curriculum in Costa Rica. [Methodology] This study is limited to the publishers Grupo Nación and Editorial Santillana; therefore, 88 tasks were selected from books from these publishers. A qualitative paradigm is used in combination with a descriptive approach. The bibliographic review conducted helps define the analysis categories that guide the data collection and the subsequent analysis. [Results] Some of the results helped to contrast the textbook proposal with the Ministry’s proposal. Both proposals strongly agree on the content of patterns. However, there were discrepancies in the use of mathematical concepts according to the modes of interpretation. The study revealed the absence of tasks enabling the creation or duplication of patterns or math tasks related to the application of mathematics in social or scientific environments. [Conclusions] This type of research highlights the importance of teacher training by analyzing tasks in response to current demands, having an impact both on teaching planning and on the skills that must be taught to students to achieve quality mathematics education. It is essential to consider, in teaching planning, those tasks that, according to the results, are absent from the textbook. |
