15. Passive students
- Students hope that everything materials
provide by their teacher
- student supposedly plays an active role
16. Limitation Of Infrastructure
-limitations to access the network hamper
the
effectiveness of technology supported
teaching and learning.
-Smart Schools project was wholly
inaccessible to rural areas
-The geography of the country itself
posed a
real challenge for the Ministry of
Education.
17. Teacher’s mindset
◦ misconception among teachers was that
using the courseware simply meant
assigning a topic for students to learn or
search
◦ students used the courseware without
guidelines or teacher supervision.
◦ some teachers claimed that teaching with
the courseware provided required much
more preparation time and effort than
previously.
18. Technical support
◦ critical to maintenance of all installed
hardware and software to ensure minimal
description to the teaching-learning and
management process.
19. Smart School Project signifies a dramatic change in the local
educational system whereby information technology is utilized
in every aspect of education and students are required to take
much greater responsibilities of their own learning
The learning settings in smart schools are conducive for self
regulated learning.
Information from this study may help smart schools' authorities
and teachers to further promote and enhance self-regulated
learning in these schools.
