Five current international ELT books used in Iran were scrutinized regarding inclusion of grammar and vocabulary consciousness-raising activities. To this end, a twenty-seven item, five-point Likert-scale questionnaire filled out by 90 Iranian EFL teachers and 170 students, triangulated by a semi-structured interview conducted with 20 EFL teachers and 20 students were adopted. A Chi-square analysis and an independent sample t-test were run to compare teachers and students' responses. The findings revealed although the five ELT books used different kinds of grammar and vocabulary activities, they did not include some of the major grammar and vocabulary consciousnessraising activities (e.g. making generalizations, cross-referencing, reconstructing, etc). The findings might be beneficial for ELT material developers, syllabus designers and practitioners.
