摘要：AbstractThe aim of this study is to evaluate 9thgrade local and international English coursebooks used in Turkish high schools in terms of language skills and language components. This study is a replica of the study conducted by the same authors who have previously evaluated the same English coursebooks in terms of aims and methodology. In order to evaluate the specified coursebooks, a comprehensive checklist is designed in terms of language skills and components with reference to some available checklists. Using this checklist, teachers who are the prime users of the coursebooks are asked to evaluate them in terms of language skills and language components. The results are analysed quantitatively and the findings are discussed by considering teacher and student needs. Furthermore, a comparison is made between the local and the international coursebook evaluations and some recommendations are provided relying on the overall findings.
