The Extent of Social Values Inclusion in Jordanian EFL Textbooks

The purpose of this study is to investigate the inclusion of social values in all reading texts of students' books in Action Pack Series One through Twelve. The study asked how much the Action Pack Series teaches social values like coexistence, cooperation, accepting differences, dialogue, love, peace, and human relationships. A quantitative and qualitative content analysis, with the paragraph as the unit of analysis, is used to answer this question.  The results show that cooperation is the most common value in all twelve Action Pack series while accepting differences is the least common value in the same textbooks. The results show, without a doubt, that social values are common in grades 5–9. On the other hand, the next three classes put less emphasis on social values in the same readings. The researchers have come up with the following suggestions: Based on what the study found, it is suggested that the Ministry of Education offer seminars and training programs to help teachers better understand how texts show social values.
