| dc.description.abstract | Abstract The rapid changes and the development in the world of work, field of education, the environment that we live, and the call of the surrounding environment for essential skills that are considered a main factor to have the tasks done with full of efficiency and creativity encourage me to discuss teachers’ attitudes toward one of most important skills that are highly required and recommended in the field of work, especially in the field of education since being involved in the teaching environment does not only depend on having a certificate in the field of study. Therefore, this study aimed to explore EFL teachers’ attitudes toward the role of using digital games in enhancing students’ soft skills. Digital games are games played on the computer, game system, television, or mobile device. They can be made specifically for educational purposes in which case they are often referred to as serious games or they can be commercial games such as Halo Call of Duty or Hearthstone. The study sample included (112) male and female English teachers in Salfeet public schools. The quantitative data collected have been analyzed using the SPSS V.23; whereas the qualitative collected data has been analyzed using Thematic Analysis technique. According to the survey, Salfeet's public school EFL teachers had moderate views regarding adopting digital games, indicating a middle-level attitude. Additionally, EFL teachers at Salfeet Public Schools confirm that digital games play a significant role in helping pupils enhance their soft skills. The researcher recommended EFL teachers to integrate digital games in the teaching process. Keywords: EFL, digital games, soft skills, Salfeet Public Schools. | |
