Analyzing Gender and Pancasila Students Profile in “English For Nusantara” and “Wonderful Insight English”

Rahellya Antika Andreana, Gustaman Saragih

Abstract


This study examines gender representation and the integration of the Pancasila Student Profile in two Grade 7 English textbooks: English for Nusantara and Wonderful Insight English. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach through content analysis, the research analyzed images, comic strips, and texts. Findings reveal gender imbalances, with English for Nusantara presenting 54.5% male and 45.5% female figures, while Wonderful Insight English features 41.5% male and 58.5% female. Both textbooks incorporate Pancasila values, prominently highlighting Mutual Cooperation and Faith and Noble Character. However, Creativity is the least emphasized profile in both texts. The study concludes that, despite aligning with national education goals related to cooperation and global awareness, the observed gender disparities and limited emphasis on creativity may influence students’ perceptions and development in these areas
