There is evidence to suggest that young children more readily absorb the subtle messages that are encoded in any type of text and talk, and what they take away from these texts contributes in helping them develop their own identity in relation to their role in society. In this paper, we examine the construction of ethnic identity in a selection of English language textbooks targeted at young Malaysian children in primary schools. Based on a content analysis of visual and verbal language in two Primary Three English language textbooks, we report on the encoded messages that are transmitted to young Malaysian children about their place in society. The findings reveal significant imbalances in the way characters of different ethnic backgrounds are represented. This imbalance is a cause for concern as the message conveyed to young Malaysian children could be potentially damaging. Keywords: textbook, ethnicity, identity construction

The Russian Language

In this paper we have carried out an analysis and description of the four Russian language textbooks for elementary school (including the components of the accompanying textbook structures) from the book set “Oрбита” that was used in primary schools in Montenegro for more 20 years. The approach was based on determining how much the individualized exercises and tasks are included in the textbook, with highlighting the problems the students are facing with. Finally, we offered a series of solutions that make the exercises better and easier. The aim of our paper is todetermine whether and to what extent individualization reflects the level of structure and content of exercises and tasks in the analyzed textbook corpus, as well as to offer a variety of strategies and levels of individualization in the process of conceiving, designing and implementing of textbook of Russian language. Key words: Individualization of teaching process, the Russian language textbook for elementary school, individualization of teaching process within the class (within the group), individualized exercises and tasks.
