Only 26.1% responded to the self-administered questionnaire which was distributed via google form for one month. Descriptive analysis was used to analyze the background information and their awareness, practice and perception. Results: Majority of the respondents were male (56.8%), permanent staff (94.6%) with mean years of service at IIUM was6.7. Most of them owned technology tools [smartphone (100%), personal computer (73.0%), tablet (54.1%) and laptop (97.3%)]. All of them heard about i-Ta’aleem. However, 78.4% never use i-Ta’aleem and only a small percentage of them always uses other technologies for their teaching and learning (2.7% to 5.4%) except the usage of laptop (48.6%) and projector (59.5%). Conclusion: Although the lecturers were aware about i-Ta’aleem and owned high technology tools and gadget, only a small percentage of them use it in teaching activities. |
