Resumen
: Textbooks include not only the contents of one topic, but also other aspects that aims to ease the understanding of these contents. This study focus on knowing which didactic aspects were included in several arithmetic books published originally in Spanish in the 16th century. In order to do that, it has been carried out a historical research and it has been used the content analysis as analysis technique. The criteria followed for the analysis were: modernity, originality, structure and organization, social interest, applications to other fields, review and synthesis of contents or other didactic principles. Results show social interest was the main feature of most of these books. However, the contents were not original and in general, they were not modern considering the time when they were written.
