“…Pupils felt confident in using technology for reading lessons because they were well-versed in using technology. Previous research by Pandian et al (2020) corroborated this study's findings that Malaysian students were confident in their abilities and aware of their digital media skills. Their competence in using technology, sufficient technological knowledge and problem-solving skills when working with digital devices are contributors to their confidence in using technology.…”

Technology integration in language teaching has become a more prominent option for more effective teaching and learning process. However, few studies have examined the use of technology in reading classrooms, especially in the Malaysian context. This study aims to investigate pupils’ perceptions of technology use in ESL (English as a second language) reading classrooms. In order to fulfill the research objective, the research question, ‘What is the perception of Year 6 primary school pupils on using technology in the reading classroom?’ was formulated to guide the study. The present study investigates the pupils’ perceptions towards the integration of technology in reading classrooms by collecting data from 70 participants of a semi-urban primary school in Pahang using a questionnaire that is adapted from the Technology Acceptance Model model. The findings indicated that pupils have positive perceptions towards the use of technology in reading classrooms in terms of perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, attitude towards the use of technology and behavioural intention of using technology. Significantly, this study’s findings offer teachers and stakeholders with evidence to embrace technology in language teaching. Understanding pupils’ perceptions of technology use in reading in language learning classrooms provide significant information for teachers, school administrators and stakeholders

“…Oleh sebab itu, dalam suasana kehidupan yang semakin bergantung dengan media digital, golongan remaja ini selayaknya diberikan pendedahan dan pengetahuan dalam menggunakan platform yang sedia ada dengan lebih terperinci. Hal ini demikian kerana tidak semua remaja mempunyai kecekapan dan kecerdasan yang tinggi semasa berada dalam lingkaran dunia digital (Pandian et al, 2020).…”

Menelusuri arus pemodenan yang semakin berkembang pesat menjadikan interaksi manusia menjadi lebih dinamik. Perubahan drastik tersebut dirasakan dalam keseluruhan aktiviti manusia seperti pendidikan, ekonomi dan sosial melibatkan media dan teknologi. Generasi Z yang dianggap sebagai warga digital sememangnya tidak asing dalam penggunaan platform digital dalam pelbagai kaedah. Kesan daripada hal tersebut telah menjadi pendorong terhadap keperluan untuk melihat tahap literasi media remaja daripada aspek kewarganegaraan digital. Penyelidikan ini bertujuan untuk mengukur tahap pengetahuan, kemahiran dan nilai kewarganegaraan digital remaja 14 tahun di Malaysia. Kajian ini memfokuskan lapan elemen kewarganegaraan digital berdasarkan konsep Kerangka Kerja Kecerdasan Digital (DQ), iaitu identiti digital, penggunaan digital, keselamatan digital, pengawasan digital, emosi kecerdasan digital, komunikasi digital, literasi digital dan hak digital. Kaedah kuantitatif secara tinjauan menggunakan instrumen soal selidik telah dijalankan terhadap 601 pelajar di beberapa buah negeri di Malaysia menggunakan platform Google Form. Hasil analisis menggunakan sistem pemarkahan Child Online Safety Indeks (COSI) mendapati tahap pengetahuan remaja di Malaysia berada pada tahap yang baik. Manakala, tahap kemahiran dan nilai menunjukkan kelemahan dalam beberapa aspek. Secara keseluruhannya, tahap kewarganegaraan digital dalam kalangan remaja di Malaysia perlu dipertingkatkan lagi kerana kecenderungan untuk terdedah kepada risiko jenayah siber masih pada tahap yang tinggi.
