Penelitian ini dilaksankan untuk mengidentifikasi tentang buku ajar dan LKS Bahasa Inggris yang digunakan untuk siswa kelas VII di SMP Negeri 3 Singaraja tahun ajaran 2013/2014 sebagai materi pembelajaran yang baik berdasarkan analisis teori, persepsi guru dan siswa dan juga untuk mengidentifikasi perbedaan pandangan tentang kualitas dari buku ajar dan LKS tersebut. Sedangkan, subyek penelitian ini adalah 2 orang penelaah ahli (mereka adalah 2 dosen dari Jurusan Pendidikan Bahasa Inggris UNDIKSHA), 2 orang penelaah pengguna (dalam hal ini 2 guru pengajar kelas 7 di SMP Negeri 3 Singaraja) dan pengguna (100 siswa yang dipilih dari selurus siswa kelas 7 di SMP Negeri 3 Singaraja tahun ajaran 2013/2014). Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif dan dilakukan diluar pelajaran dalam kelas. Data dikumpulkan melalui pengisian ceklist oleh kedua penilai, pengisian kuesioner oleh guru dan siswa. Data yang diperoleh merupakan hasil ceklist dari para ahli, dan kuesioner dari pengguna. Lalu data-data tersebut dianalisis dan disampaikan secara deskriptif. Temuan dalam penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa buku ajar dan LKS Bahasa Inggris yang digunakan di SMP Negeri 3 Singaraja tahun ajaran 2013/2014 telah memenuhi kriteria dari materi pembelajaran yang baik yang dibuat oleh Nitiasih, dkk. (2010). Berdasarkan persepsi dari ahli, guru dan siswa, hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa materi pembelajaran ini “Baik” untuk digunakan dalam pembelajaran Bahasa Inggris. Akan tetapi, seperti Sharma (2008) katakan bahwa terdapat 4 faktor yang memepengaruhi persepsi seseorang seperti: diri sendiri, situasi dan lingkungan, pengalaman, dan juga keinginan dan harapan seseorang. Itulah yang memunculkan perbedaan persepsi pada beberapa aspek diantara para ahli, guru dan siswa. Ini menunjukkan adanya penilaian subyektifitas karena pandangan yang menyebabkan persepsi pribadi sesorang. Sehingga, sangatlah diperlukan agar guru memiliki kemampuan dan kewenangan untuk melaksanakan pembelajaran dengan kualitas baik. Itu dapat dilakukan dengan memiliki acuan untuk memilih dan menggunakan materi pembelajaran yang baik bagi siswanya.Kata Kunci : materi pembelajaran, buku ajar, LKS, persepsi, dan perbedaan pandangan
