Abstract

Moral education has a vital role in the holistic development of students, guiding them to become morally responsible individuals within a society. Moral education can be taught through anything, including through textbooks. This textbook, "English for Nusantara," is widely used in Indonesian English Language Teaching (ELT) classrooms. This study aims to examine the representation of moral education described in English textbooks entitled “English for Nusantara” designed for 7th grade Junior High Schools developed by The Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology (Kemendikbudristek) in 2022, based on the principles and learning objectives as stated in Merdeka Curriculum which fosters students’ character building following the 6 main values of Pancasila Student Profile. The researcher analyzed the representation of moral education within the selected ELT textbooks, employing Kress and van Leuween's (2006) visual grammar theory. Based on the result that has been presented, it concluded that the “English for Nusantara” textbook represents all of the Pancasila Student Profile values within its components as well as possible. The finding of the representation of 6 the dominance values of the Pancasila student profiles through visual grammar (visual-verbal text) is well presented in the selected textbook. The most dominant value is 1). belief, having faith in God Almighty, and having noble character (23,21%), 2). global diversity (21,43%), 3). critical thinking (19,64%), 4). independence (12,5%), 5). creativity (12,5%), and 6). cooperation (10,71%). Therefore, the materials in the book can be used as a strategy to promote moral education and as examples for the students to learn and become moral agents in their daily lives.
