Description
Summary:<p>This study was conducted to investigate; (i) the usage of ICT among teachers involved in ETTecS programme, (ii) the type of ICT applications used by the teachers, and (iii) whether there was a strong relationship between the usage of ICT and the level of confidence among ETTecS teachers in utilizing English as the medium of instruction in their classrooms. The data were collected using questionnaire and semi-structured interview. The respondents consisted of 97 teachers who were teaching Science, Mathematics and Technical subjects from eight technical schools in Pahang. The data obtained from the questionnaire were computed and then analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) Version 12.0. The findings of the research revealed that the usage of ICT among teachers was high and they were keen and felt comfortable in using the ICT applications. In addition, the research also indicated that the ICT facilities provided by the Ministry of Education had helped the teachers to utilize English as the medium of instruction.</p>
