2014 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com DECLARATION To the best of my knowledge and belief, this minor thesis contains no material which has previously been submitted and accepted for any other degree in any university The thesis is my own work and based on my own research It involves no material previously published or written by any other person, except where due reference is acknowledged in the paper Hanoi, 2014 Nguyễn Thi Tố ̣ Hoàn TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com ABSTRACT The study investigates the cultural content of the textbook Solutions Preintermediate Students’ Book and the attitudes of students and teachers towards that content The analysis of the cultural content was based on two criteria – one of Cortazzi and Jin (1999) and the other of Byram (1989) Survey questionnaire and interview were used to collect information from students and teachers Via the data, convergences and divergences between students‟ and teachers‟ attitudes were drawn The findings showed that Solutions Pre-intermediate Students’ Book was the textbook on target culture with the British and American culture dominantly presented All the teachers and most of the students expressed positive attitudes towards the cultural content of the book although there were a number of students saying no to culture learning However, the teachers‟ teaching of cultures did not meet the students‟ need The results suggested that some negative attitudes of students need to be recognized and changed as soon as possible Moreover, the university authority needs take more consideration in choosing an international commercial book to be a textbook They also need undertake an investigation into the effectiveness of the new learning and teaching method being applied, which prevented teachers from satisfying students‟ need, with the teachers‟ and students‟ voice involved It is hoped that these findings provide useful criteria for an expanding discussion of cultural issues in ELT TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I owe a debt of gratitude to those who has helped me complete the study First and foremost, I am sincerely grateful to my
