Este estudio evalúa el libro de texto English in Action 1 para determinar su efectividad en el desarrollo de las habilidades de lectura, escritura, comprensión auditiva y expresión oral en el nivel A1 del MCER. Diseñada para servir como modelo para profesores novatos, la investigación aborda el objetivo pedagógico más amplio de asegurar que los libros de texto de inglés como Lengua Extranjera promuevan experiencias de aprendizaje auténticas, comunicativas y con un andamiaje adecuado. Empleando una metodología cualitativa, el análisis se basa en rúbricas y listas de verificación de literatura establecida para evaluar los componentes específicos de cada habilidad y su coherencia con los objetivos declarados. Cada una de las ocho unidades del libro de texto fue examinada en términos de calidad de los textos, diseño de tareas, autenticidad, andamiaje y relevancia comunicativa. Los hallazgos indican que, si bien el libro de texto muestra una fuerte alineación con los descriptores del MCER A1 en comprensión auditiva y expresión oral, demuestra debilidades notables en la autenticidad de la escritura, la variedad de los textos de lectura y las oportunidades para la producción espontánea del alumno. La instrucción en pronunciación y estrategias también está poco desarrollada. A pesar de estas limitaciones, el libro de texto proporciona un marco claro para el desarrollo del lenguaje fundamental y puede considerarse un recurso práctico para los estudiantes principiantes. Sin embargo, su implementación efectiva en el aula depende de la mediación del profesor y la inclusión de materiales suplementarios para mejorar la autonomía del alumno, el pensamiento crítico y el compromiso con tareas comunicativas del mundo real.
