Kesedaran Metakognitif Membaca dan Pencapaian Akademik Mata Pelajaran Bahasa

ABSTRACT


The purpose of this study is to gain a better understanding of the reading metacognitive awareness among secondary school students, and its relationship to academic achievement in language subjects. Data were collected based on a questionnaire and the Index of Reading Awareness. The questionaire elicited information on the scores of some subjects. The Index of Reading Awareness consisted of 20 questions appraising the level of reading metacognitive awareness. The findings of the study revealed that achievement in Bahasa Melayu, Bahasa Inggeris and Bahasa Arab was significantly related to reading metacognitive awareness. Hence, in the teaching and learning of these subjects, the metacognitive aspect of learning has to be stressed to produce effective readers.

DO TEACHERS HAVE ADEQUATE ICT RESOURCES IN PROMOTING ENGLISH LANGUAGE TEACHING AND LEARNING?

ABSTRACT

It is generally acknowledged that the standard of English in Malaysian schools has
been deteriorating over the years. This decline must be put right if we are to
maintain our competitiveness in the global market. The on-going lCT revolution
has dramatically changed the way teachers teach and students learn, and the
appropriate use of lCT resources can give a tremendous boost to the teaching and
learning of English. Traditional classroom teaching ought to be complemented by
providing a web-based learning environment. This research is based on the findings
of a questionnaire survey conducted over a period of five months, from 151
September 2004 to 31st January 2005. According to the findings, 72.4% of the
respondents stated thatthere is a lack ofICT resources in schools. More recently
however, the supply of ICT resources in schools have increased by leaps and
bounds, yet the use of ICT tools in English language teaching and learning is far
from satisfactory. In the concluding part of this article, some obvious obstacles to
ICT use in the teaching and learning of English are discussed.
