The principal strategic leadership strongly influences school performance, especially on students' achievement in academic, co-curriculum and personal. Various training and leadership courses are held for the principals to ensure that this group can translate it into strategically planned efforts thus producing excellent schools. In the Malaysian education context, there are three (3) elements of students' outcome, namely academic, co-curriculum and personality, which depend on a good and strategic principal leadership. The study was conducted to examine the level of principals' strategic leadership and students' outcome and the relationship between the two. The study was conducted in 85 secondary schools in one of the states in Malaysia, involving 374 respondents to answer the questionnaire based on Davies and Davies (2004) Strategic Leadership theory and the 2nd Wave of Malaysian Education Quality Standard (SKPMg2). The findings showed that the level of Strategic Leadership among principals was very high (mean = 4.32, S.D. = 0.421), whereas Students' Outcome also very high (mean = 4.53, S.D. = 0.373). In addition, the findings of this study indicated that there was a significant relationship between the principals' strategic leadership and the students' outcome. This shows that the principals' strategic leadership practice could influence students' outcome in the secondary school.

Frog Virtual Learning Environment (Frog VLE) merupakan salah satu aplikasi pendukung pembelajaran memanfaatkan Information and Communication Technology (ICT) dalam pembelajaran sains pada abad ke-21. Konsep paper ini cuba melihat berbagai isu dalam penggunaan Frog VLE bagi menjalankan aktiviti pembelajaran sains. Beberapa kajian terdahulu dianalisis secara mendalam untuk tujuan tersebut. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahawa Frog VLE belum banyak digunakan untuk mendukung pembelajaran sains oleh guru. Justeru Frog VLE perlu diberi tumpuan serius demi menambahbaik proses pembelajaran sains pada masa hadapan, guru mesti diberi latihan secara berterusan dan konsisten dalam penggunaan Frog VLE tersebut dalam proses pembelajaran sains.

Frog Virtual Learning Environment (Frog VLE) is one of the supporting learning applications utilizing Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in 21st-century science learning. This paper concept tries to look at various issues in using VLE Frog to carry out science learning activities. Some previous studies were analyzed in depth for this purpose. The results of the analysis show that Frog VLE has not been widely used to support teacher science learning. In fact, the VLE Frog needs to be given a serious support to add to the process of learning science in the future, the teacher must be given continuous and consistent training in the use of the Frog VLE in the process of learning science.
