This document discusses issues and challenges in teaching and learning with information and communication technologies (ICT) in Malaysia. It outlines roles of ICT in education such as restructuring education systems and enhancing teaching methods. Key challenges identified include the high costs of implementing ICT, lack of teacher ICT skills training, and barriers both intrinsic and extrinsic to teachers integrating ICT. The document argues that with proper support and training, ICT can help achieve education goals by creating a new open learning environment and improving access for students in rural areas.

Roles of ICT in education

productivity

3. Issues that have been raised while integrating ICT in Teaching
and Learning
What is ICT?
What are the roles of ICT in education system?
How much does will it cost by implementing ICT in Malaysia’s education?
What are the challenges that teachers and students will face in using ICT?
Does ICT enhanced learning effectively work?
How to help or train the teachers to have ICT skills in order to create an
effective learning environment?
How ICT can create a new, open learning environment?
How does ICT will help the students from the rural area?
Does ICT can help to achieve the philosophy of education’s goal?

4. How much does will it cost by implementing ICT in
Malaysia’s education?
•Ministry of Education –funding
•Integrating ICT in our Malaysian schools –
high cost

5. What are the challenges that
teachers and students will face in
using ICT?
Two categories of barrier.
Extrinsic barrier as first Lack of time
order and cited
access, time, support, res Lack of effective
ources and training training
Intrinsic barrier as
second order and cited
Lack of confident
attitudes, belief, practi
ce and resistance.

6. How does ICT will help the students
from the rural area?
Make sure that rural people follow
the development of the
technologies.
Increase their knowledge faster and
easier than before.
Help the education system in rural
area became more systematic and
bring good quality in rural school.

7. Does ICT can help to achieve the
philosophy of education’s goal?
From the intellectual aspect, ICT
helped to fulfill the education
philosophy.
One of the government efforts to
achieve the education philosophy is
“Smart School”.
Aim is to capitalize on leading-edge
technologies and rapid deployment
of the MSC’s infrastructure to jump
start deployment of enabling
technology to school.

8. The process of
teaching and
learning more
interesting
Does ICT
enhanced
learning Provide more
effectively flexible and
Student can work effective ways
get more for lifelong
reference professional
development
for today’s
teacher.
Issue: Students’ ability to apply their ICT capability across the
curriculum is largely dependent on the effective teaching and learning

9. How to help or train the teachers to have ICT skills
in order to create an effective learning environment
Issue : many teachers report that they have not had adequate
training to prepare themselves to use technology effectively in
teaching and learning
early ICT training programs in the 1991’s
focused on ICT use as the main training content
learn HOW to use ICT or teachers can be
trained VIA ICT
Expose to system software

10. Categories for ICT in teacher training (adapted from Collis & Jung, 2003, p.176)

11. How ICT can create a new, open learning
environment
Issue : learning environment for individual students is most often
basis for development of new open learning environments
interaction and teamwork skills
the environment are composed by a teaching
method, a multimedia application, internet based
learning modules and an ICT assessment
implements a new student-centred learning
method

12. Conclusions
Although there are some of the
barrier and problem but ICT can
prepare our children for successful
lives and carriers in an increasingly
technological world.
So if we looked at the good side of
implementing ICT in all Malaysian
schools, we can precisely predicted
that there will be many benefit for
both teacher and learner when use
ICT. The uses of ICT will enhance
the learning experience for
students, helping them to think and
communicate creatively.
