Abstract

This article shows an instrument to analysethe role of problem solving in textbooks. We begin with the description of the role given to the textbooks in the teaching and learning of mathematics, then move on to show some research on textbooks from mathematics education, including those carried outin our group. We show examples of the mentioned research about how the instrument for analysis allows us to analyse the different kinds of problems that appear in textbooks.
