| Abstract: | This paper reports the results of a study of teacher opinions about the features considered important in an ideal textbook.
A survey of Queensland high school teachers revealed that they favoured texts that focus on student cognition and which provide
useful features such as exercises and practical activities. Differences were found between the preferences of Queensland teachers
and the preferences of teachers reported in two American studies. The significance of these differences for writers and publishers
is discussed.
