teachability and flexibility. As stated in Chapter I, the researcher analyzed all the lessons in Pakar
workbook. There were three lessons in the workbook. Those three lessons were evaluated with the assistance of the checklists. In the Chapter III, the researcher had
already explicated the detail of the checklists. The checklist consisted of five columns. The third and fourth columns were the checkmark place that indicate the
fulfilled criteria. The fulfilled criterion scored 1 point, while unfulfilled criterion got 0 point. The result of the calculation was used to indicate whether the aspect

fulfilled or unfulfilled. An aspect on the checklist will be considered as fulfilled one if the sum of the criteria of the aspect reaches more than a half of the criteria on
every aspect. However, since there were three lessons which were evaluated, the aspect will be considered as fulfill if two of the three lessons fulfill the aspect. Thus,
if the sum of the criteria on the aspect did not reach more than a half it was considered as unfulfilled.
