Analysis of The Readability of Indonesian Language Textbooks For The Merdeka Curriculum For Grade 10 High School Students Using The Raygor Graph Formula

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the readability level of the Indonesian language textbook for the Independent Curriculum for grade X of Senior High Schools (SMA/SMK) using the Raygor graph formula. Textbook readability is considered important because it influences the success of learning and student understanding. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method with observation techniques on discourse texts in the Electronic School Book (BSE) of the Indonesian Language for the Independent Curriculum for grade X published by the Ministry of Education and Culture in 2021. The research sample consisted of six reading texts taken from each chapter of the book. The analysis results show that of the six texts studied, two texts are at a readability level appropriate for grade X of Senior High Schools (SMA/SMK), while the other four texts are outside the appropriate readability level. This indicates the need for teachers to select and adjust reading materials so that learning can take place more effectively.
