Data collection techniques used (1) instrument assessment with the format of student book analysis to measure the level of accuracy of the existing textbooks, (2) interviews and observations, conducted to the PAI teachers, and (3) validation sheets. Moreover, the technique of data analysis used inter rater analysis technique, known as the technique of intra class correlation coefficient analysis (Intraclass Correlation Coefficient-ICC). As the result, in terms of level of accuracy, the existing textbooks of Character and Islamic Education at the fifth grade of elementary school is still low.
