What are some of the aspects/issues/areas that need to be given focus in technology planning?

Aspek yang perlu diberi fokus dalam perancangan teknologi ialah :

i.                     Pembelajaran murid  termasuk aspek kemahiran teknologi,

ii.                   Penyampaian guru dan kaedah penyampaian pengajaran

iii.                  Pentadbiran/pengurusan data/proses komunikasi

iv.                 Taburan sumber dan penggunaan

v.                   Sokongan teknikal

 

What is the MOST important factor (in your opinion) that affects the successful integration of technology?

                Pada pendapat saya, faktor terpenting yang mempengaruhi kejayaan pengintegrasian teknologi adalah dengan adanya sumber teknologi atau alat (tools) yang dapat menampung jumlah murid di sesebuah sekolah. Hal ini demikian kerana walaupun guru-guru dan murid-murid mempunyai kemahiran dalam bidang teknologi namun tiada alat yang mencukupi akan menyebabkan mereka tidak dapat implementasikan kemahiran mereka.

b) The most important factors that affects the successful integration of technology: 

In my opinion,  teacher’s attitude or philosophy is the most important factors that affects the successful integration of technology. Further to attitudes, motivation from teachers must be strong so as to positively effective. If teachers find intrinsic value in technology, it will create the context for successful implementation. Teachers motivation appears to come, in large measure, from their belief in the educational value of the technology for students and from what they see happening in their classrooms. These teachers are inspired by their students' accomplishments with and enthusiasm about the technology. Teachers should exercise caution for their choice of available tools, however. Oftentimes, teachers make decisions based on limited information and in response to pressure. 

 
Q2
 What is the MOST important factor (in your opinion) that affects the successful integration of technology? 

Pada pendapat saya, faktor terpenting yang akan mempengaruhi kejayaan sesuatu pengintegrasian teknologi di sesebuah organisasi adalah tahap kesediaan guru itu sendiri dari segi kemahiran dan pengetahuan mereka dalam berkomputer. Ini kerana, jika alatan yang disediakan adalah mencukupi namun guru masih tidak mahir dalam menggunakannya menjadikan alatan yang disediakan tidak dapat dapat digunakan secara berkesan. 

Q2
In my opinion, the most important factor that affects successful integration of technology is the knowledge about the usage of the technology. Many study nowadays found that the level of teacher knowledge toward technology will influence the using of technology. The high level of technology knowledge will encourage teachers to use technology in learning, For example, game based learning and assesstment, online and blended learning and web based project

Some of the aspects/ issues/ area that need to be given focus in technology planning:

·  Student Learning

·  Teacher preparation

·  Administration / Data     Management

· Resource distribution and use

· Technical support

 

Q2
What is the most important factor that effects the successful integration of technology?

Pada pendapat saya, pengetahuan dan kemahiran guru dalam menggunakan teknologi adalah penting dalam mempengaruhi pengintergasian teknologi. Pengetahuan dan kemahiran yang ada pada guru memudahkan guru untuk merekabentuk pengajaran disamping memilih teknologi yang sesuai untuk menyampaikan pengajaran yang berkesan.
