Abstract

This article interrogates the conceptualization of Indonesian national identity from the point of view of the Indonesian government. The data is taken from the 2013 Curriculum mandated English textbook for Grade XI. Through the lens of Representation theory as suggested by Hall (1997), this research explores the key issues within the textbook. In analysing the data, a multimodal discourse analysis focusing on Gee’s model of Discourse Analysis (Gee, 2014b) and Kress and Van Leeuwen’s visual analysis (2006) are utilized, specifically through the verbal analysis and visual analysis of textbook. The results of analysis reveal that there are four themes namely: spirituality and morality, personal attribute, nationalism, and knowledge and scientific attitude. However, the research results indicate the unbalanced portion of the themes within the textbook, with the minimal representation of the knowledge development, specifically in regards to the development of English skills. Apart from the presence of knowledge and scientific attitude as one of the themes, the data shows that most of the questions within the pre-reading and post-reading activities merely in the recalling level, which is not adequate enough to support the teaching of English language as a means of communication for senior high school students.
