Özet

Textbooks are the tools that act as a resource to teachers' and adults' learning lives [1]. Textbooks are the most reliable information source books when other sources of information such as the internet, educational games, demonstrations etc. are inadequate. Since students often gain knowledge from their own books by themselves, the information are of scientific value, accurate and reliable [2]. It was found that textbooks contain incorrect and inadequate information as a result of research conducted by The Turkish Academy of Sciences (TUBA) [3].
