Abstract

The selection and evaluation of educational resources has an effect on increasing and decreasing the quality of learning and teaching and achieving educational goals. Teachers need reliable and valid tools to evaluate educational resources. Due to the lack of a suitable reviewer to evaluate prose literature teaching resources, an artificial researcher's reviewer was designed. After validation, Cronbach's alpha reliability coefficient of 0.939 was obtained, which indicates the appropriate internal consistency between the components of the reviewer. The Persian textbook for teaching Persian prose literature was evaluated by 52 teachers of Persian language and literature with the help of the aforementioned reviewer. In general, the results show the effectiveness of the two-volume collection of Faarsinaameh for teaching Persian prose literature. The findings obtained with the help of Friedman's test show a significant difference in terms of importance and rank between the 12 review sections of the prose literature textbook from the teachers' point of view. Also, t-tests show that according to the average ranks, the section of listening, speaking, reading and writing skills ranks first, the special section of prose literature teaching books ranks second, and the general literary ability section ranks third, as well as the methodological guide and attractiveness section. The text and the appearance of the book are ranked eleven and twelve. The findings of this research help teachers to improve the quality of content and teaching methods by reflecting on the strengths and weaknesses of the textbook.
