Conditions Facilitating The Implementation of Information Communication Technology Integration in Malaysian Smart School

In this paper, we describe the conditions that facilitated the implementation of Information Communication Technology (ICT) integration in the Malaysian Smart School locally known as Sekolah Bestari. The description was based on a study that was carried out using qualitative methodology on 21 informants, mainly teachers to discover why the teachers in this school have minimal use of ICT in their teaching. The study also attempts to identify problems that emerge during the process of integration. Three technology-rich Malaysian secondary schools, the Smart Schools, of different technology levels were involved in this study. Based on the data analysis, two sets of conditions were revealed. They were the essential conditions and the supporting conditions. The essential conditions see to implementation of ICT integration while, supporting conditions see to the continuation of implementation. The findings also revealed that teachers in this study employed four levels of approaches in integrating ICT in the schools. It seemed that the levels of approach were influenced by the presence and absence of those conditions. Time, course content and technical malfunction were found to be the main problems that the teachers faced during this process.
