This study discusses the results of an analysis of educational content for presentations in Korean speaking textbooks for academic purposes. The contents of seven textbooks were examined in terms of their syllabi and unit structure, learning contents and tasks, and whether or not their evaluation and feedback related to academic presentations meet certain criteria. Although some of the textbooks attempted to provide balanced contents for academic presentation education, it is nevertheless necessary to develop a comprehensive textbook that has a clear conceptualization of academic presentations. This, in turn, should assist students in understanding the overall procedure of academic presentations, and also aid them in generating ideas for their own presentations.
