Many Malaysian classrooms have been redesigned to include technology and foster the development of twenty
first century learning.
The availability of this platform and the new learning space created by redesigning the
language classroom has opened up new and exciting possibilities for teaching and learning the English
language. This paper will investigate if the new learning space has impacted teacher’s pedagogical strategies
and student’s learning behavior and engagement for English language teaching and learning. A qualitative
approach employing a multiple case study research design was taken and data was collected using classroom
observations, teacher interviews and teacher and student focus group discussions from eight English language
teachers and 37 students. Findings reveal significant transformations in teachers’ teaching approaches, use of
class activities and on students’ learning behavior and outcomes. Technology did feature in the learner centric
approach with students functioning as facilitators and allowing more student participation and interaction. The
use of multimedia and online materials helped make learning more interesting and improved student attention
in class. Students in turn were more focused and engaged in the collaborative tasks and also reported
developing better peer relationships and learning from each other. |
