Abstract

Curriculum transformation has led to the production of the mathematics textbook revised KSSR 2017. Financial Education elements is applied directly through the topic of Money. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine the cognitive domain for contents and exercises found in the topic of Money in Year 5 and Year 6 Mathematics textbooks included Sekolah Kebangsaan (SK) and Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan Cina (SJKC) syllabus, as well as to determine the level of cognitive domain based on Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) framework. Document analysis through coding technique was used to categorize all the contents and exercises in the topic of Money according to types of exercises, cognitive domains and aspects of cognitive domain. The results of the study showed that SK and SJKC Year 5 Mathematics textbooks are dominant in the knowing domain with its focus on compute aspect, which reached a low level of cognitive domain. Meanwhile, the SK and SJKC Year 6 Mathematics textbooks are dominant in the reasoning domain, which reached a high level of cognitive domain. However, the SK Year 6 Mathematics textbook focused more on analyze aspect while the SJKC Year 6 Mathematics textbook focused more on integrate or synthesize aspect. Comparisons made on Year 5 and Year 6 Mathematics textbooks have found that there are significant differences in term of number and percentage of the contents and exercises in the topic of Money based on domain cognitive. Given such a scenario, the quality of textbooks should be reviewed from time to time to bridge the gap in the cognitive domain of textbooks across grades and school streams in order to ensure an equality cognitive development among Malaysian students.
