1. INTRODUCTION
Information and communication technology (ICT) is gaining importance in education since students
have emerged as the most active ICT users to have computers and cell phones with internet access [1-5].
Recognizing the importance of ICT in education, the Ministry of Education (MOE) under the Malaysia
Education Blueprint 2013-2025 has targeted all teachers should receive training in order to implement ICT in
teaching to support student learning [6].
Teachers play the role as a medium between the students with technology, as the driving force in
creating an ICT literates society [7]. As educators in schools, it is necessary for teachers to prepare and
update all the facts to be presented in subjects using ICT facilities available in schools. The use of ICT in
teaching and learning can make a subject as enjoyable event for all students [8-13], even the teacher
themselves also gain experience and knowledge while interacting with students.
The level of competence and knowledge of ICT skills among teachers is different in view of digital
technology that exists is varied and wide scope [14]. Some educators are quick to master the knowledge and
technology skills that exist while there are also educators who are still trying to master the most basic
technology such as email, students file management system, internet and office productivity software.
Therefore, it is important for teachers to try to improve ICT knowledge and skills through the
National Educational Technology Standards for Teachers 2000 recommended by the International Society for
Technology in Education (ISTE). ISTE is an organization representing more than 100,000 educators who
support "promoting appropriate uses of information technology to support and improve learning, teaching
and administration in education and teacher education" [15]. There are six dimensions in NETS - T, i)
technology operations and concepts; ii) planning and designing learning environments and experiences; iii)
teaching, learning and the curriculum; iv) assessment and evaluation; v) productivity and professional
practice; vi) social, ethical, legal and human issues.

This six dimensions are important and the standards used to evaluate the skills and knowledge
needed by teachers to teach and learn in an increasingly digital global society [16]. Technology operations
and concepts is the first dimension for NETS-T. This dimension assesses whether teachers demonstrate basic
knowledge, skills and understanding of concepts related to technology. Next, teachers also assessed whether
they show continued growth in technology knowledge and skills in line with the current technology. For
second dimensions, namely planning and designing learning environments and experiences, teachers are
evaluated through their effort in planning and designing effective learning environment to meet the needs of
students with diverse abilities.
The third dimensional in NETS-T is teaching, learning and the curriculum. This dimension assesses
the efforts of teachers to implement curriculum plans that include methods and strategies with the ultimate
goal of using technology to maximize student learning. For fourth dimensions is assessment and evaluation,
teachers need to integrate technology strategy to diversify the effective measurement and evaluation.
Therefore, teachers were assessed whether they apply the technology to assess student learning on a subject,
use technology resources to collect and analyze data. Productivity and professional practice is the fifth
dimensions. This dimension emphasizes teachers use technology to enhance their productivity and
professional practice. So, teachers assessed whether applying technology to improve the continuous
professional and use technology to communicate and collaborate with colleagues, parents and the community
to improve student learning.
Dimension six and last dimension is social, ethical, legal and human issues. This dimension
emphasizes the teachers need to understand the social, legal and ethical issues that arise in the school due to
the use of technology in schools. Therefore, teachers should serve as role models to tell about the legal and
ethical practice related to technology use. They should promote the use of technology in safe and healthy
ways. Based on standards in NETS-T, this paper will examine the success and the lack of teachers in ICT
under six dimensional NETS-T. The success of teachers in satisfying the needs of NETS-T is an encouraging
boost to the educators. However, any shortfall must be made as awareness to teachers to improve themselves
to be regarded as effective educators today.
2. SUCCESS TEACHERS IN ICT UNDER SIX DIMENSIONAL NETS - T
2.1. Technology Operations and Concepts
The first dimension in NETS - T is technology operations and concepts. This dimension is
concerned about the attitudes, skills and knowledge technology. Researchers like [13], [17], [11], [18] found
that many educators have mastered the basic skills in the use of technology. Majority of teachers believed to
be capable of producing relevant documents using ICT applications, process and get information through the
Internet, using multimedia in the process of teaching and learning and carry out basic operations in handling
ICT tools. In this nano technology world, it is becoming a necessity and an obligation for teachers to equip
themselves with knowledge and skills in the latest ICT in line with the current changes [7].
2.2. Planning and Designing Learning Environments and Experiences
This dimension requires the efforts of various parties to design a learning environment that enables
students to master ICT skills consistent with the educational goals. The issue of the digital divide between
rural and urban areas attract the government attention through the implementation of the telecenter (TC) and
the village wifi [19]. In addition, various programs such as the Village Internet Program, Village Portal,
Computer Ownership Program and Mobile Internet Program also launched as joint effort between the
government and private agencies in order to achieve smart partnerships [20]. All these efforts have the same
goal that every individual can engage in multimedia development and reduce the digital gap between urban
and rural areas.
2.3. Teaching, Learning and the Curriculum
To perform the task as educators, teacher need to have the knowledge and skills to use the computer,
trying to use the internet, email and integrate technology in the classroom [21]. Therefore, all teachers are
trained to efficiently use the Frog VLE (virtual learning environment) by 2016 based on the learning
environment of creativity and innovation provided by the Ministry of Education as well as digital equipment
like tablet or smartphone that is available to teachers and students (Utusan Malaysia, May 28, 2013). Indeed,
the integration of ICT in the teaching and learning is required in view of the various advantages and benefits
can be obtained [18].

2.4. Assessment and Evaluation
This dimension is no stranger to the teachers as project assessment and evaluation is an obligatory
task that must be implemented by all teachers [18]. In fact, the study by researchers like [18, 11] also
confirmed that teachers frequently and often provide test questions and exams, test scores and examination
record and analyze the results of tests and examinations with the use of ICT. The performance data of these
students is important for teachers to plan for the next lesson. The Johor states are example that can be learned
with success boost of education performance from the bottom five places into the top group within just five
years [6]. With the implementation of the reporting system on-line (headcount), Johor teachers managed to
achieve success. Discussions about why success or failure of students to achieve the set targets will be made
jointly between headmasters and teachers at the school level. Besides that, activities such as enrichment,
strengthening and recovery will be followed by additional classes conducted after school hours. This
impressive success can indeed serve as a role model for all school staff who want success.
2.5. Productivity and Professional Practice
In this dimension, teachers have an obligation to up-skill themselves because it is equivalent to an
increase in their productivity [11]. Therefore, teachers should take the opportunity and initiative to take a
course or training ICT professional development organized by the school, the Education Technology
Division of the State and the State Education Department to enhance the capability and capacity of their ICT
[11], [22-24]. Teachers must have the self-awareness necessary to improve the efficiency and ICT skills. It is
the duty of educators to educate the younger generation technology savvy generation to contribute to national
development.
2.6. Social, Ethical, Legal and Human Issues
This dimension is a dimension that should not be ignored by a teacher. As obtained in the study
Mohd Jamil [11], teachers taught their students about the dangers of polluting the dignity of a person on the
internet. Teachers also often remind students about the misuse of ICT. Teachers also insist on the students to
adopt a healthy and safe life while using the internet. It is important for teachers to produce a healthy
environment for primary school students to use their visual, hearing and kinesthetic senses to learn
technology in education. The students will also be motivated because of the opportunity to be exposed to
technology from an early age and use their senses involved in technology [21]. It will guide students in
learning throughout their lives.
3. SHORTAGE OF TEACHERS IN ICT UNDER SIX DIMENSIONAL NETS - T
3.1. Technology Operations and Concepts
In this dimension, teachers are criticized for not comfortable with computers [25-27] and is still not
ready to support the use of technology in schools [28]. Researchers like [29-31] found that teachers have the
misconception that the internet is the addition of a new workload and they are less skilled in using this
application. Besides that, [28], [32,33] also notice teachers especially veteran teachers do not like to change
and are not willing to learn and improve skills in using ICT and internet access. This adverse effect on
student achievement because the teachers are not able to use technology effectively in schools. Similarly [20,
34] also revealed that teachers do not have the level of knowledge about the latest ICT equipment. This
prevents the development and implementation of ICT in the school culture.
3.2. Planning and Designing Learning Environments and Experiences
Challenges to be overcome by the teachers in this dimension is the issue of the digital divide
between rural and urban areas and the issue of teachers' planning in terms of time. Siti [35], Surendran &
Norazlinda [36] and Hazura [19] found that the use of computers and ICT among teachers in rural areas is
lower than the city. The significant difference is not due to the level of literacy among teachers working in
schools of the city or rural areas but the lack of facilities and the ability of students is lower in rural areas is
the main stumbling block to the acceptance software courseware [19, 28]. This is supported by [37] which
states ICT penetration is inherent inequalities between the urban and rural areas. In addition, teachers also
reported to have constraints in terms of time for using ICT in the classroom [38], [8], [39], [33]. Some
teachers feels that it's a waste of time to install ICT equipment for the implementation of the teaching and
learning in the classroom [8], [33], [39]. There are also teachers said that the use of technologies are
inconvenience as they need to find time to learn the new skills required to teach with technology [38], [40-
42]. There were also teachers give opinions using technology to encourage them to use more time to address
student misconduct rather than the use of ICT to launch the process of the teaching and learning in the
classroom [42-44], This prevents the development of ICT in schools.

3.3. Teaching, Learning and the Curriculum
In this dimension, the teachers received a reprimand from various quarters for allegedly not
integrate ICT in teaching and learning [45], [46], [39], [21], [11], [47], [38], [48], [49], [23], [50], [6], [8],
[51]. Some researchers criticized the teachers have a high level of ICT skills but do not integrate technology
in their teaching and learning [51], [6], [50], [8], [47]. This can be proven through studies [52] who found the
equipment ICT is complete in schools but teachers still difficult to integrate ICT in teaching and learning.
Similary, Kazi [47] also revealed that teachers use ICT facilities not for teaching and learning but for
administrative purposes and to have fun like playing computer games. Besides that, there were also teachers
said to be uncomfortable with technology and people expressed suspicion about whether they have ability to
integrate technology into teaching and learning [45], [49], [7]. This is very detrimental to students, schools
and countries in produce caliber human capital in various fields.
3.4. Assessment and Evaluation
For this dimension, teachers appear less in assessing learning outcomes of students in technology
[18]. In other words, teachers are less in presenting students performance in data like graphs for analysis and
subsequent postmortem. This situation can be attributed to poor use of graphics among teachers and can be
confirmed by the findings [53], [10], [50], [9]. Leong [18] also added that teachers make workload as the
reason for the lack of student performance data presented in graphical form.
3.5. Productivity and Professional Practice
In the dimension of productivity and professional practices, inadequate professional development
available is a major hurdle for teachers to integrate ICT in teaching and learning [54], [53], [20], [6].
Flanagan & Jacobsen [54] and Norazlina [35] revealed that many teachers do not have the opportunity to
engage in professional development to learn ICT skills required by them. For the teachers who took the
opportunity and the initiative to enroll in training or courses in ICT, the skills they learned most is the skill of
computer applications rather than strategic integration technologies is needed by them for the integration of
ICT in the teaching and learning [51], [23], [21], [55]. At the same time, teachers also face the problem of
lack of access to computers at school for drill and practice what they have learned. It is the common memory
of individuals will quickly forget ICT knowledge learned if teachers are not given the opportunity to apply
what they are learning in ICT professional development training. So, this prevents the development of ICT
skills of individuals and in turn affect the development of ICT in schools.
3.6. Social, Ethical, Legal and Human Issues
This dimension should receive serious attention from the teachers as there are a growing number of
unethical behaviour in ICT . Lau and Yuen [56], Hu et al. [57] and Xu et al. [58] found the youth love stuck
with three of unethical behaviour, namely i) unauthorized acts such as computer hacking and software piracy
; ii) internet stickiness and iii) plagiarism . Similarly, Lau and Yuen [56], Gunter et al. [59] and Teston [60]
also confirmed that internet piracy rate is common practice in youth culture today.
CONCLUSION
As educators in the 21st century, teachers need to internalize this profession in line with the
changing times. Highlights of this study can serve as a guide or foundation to improve weaknesses. Teachers
must put in energy and expertise to integrate ICT in teaching and learning in order to polish the talent and
strengthening the potential of students to be successful in all fields of endeavor.

INTRODUCTION Information and communication technology (ICT) is gaining importance in education since students have emerged as the most active ICT users to have computers and cell phones with internet access [1-5]. Recognizing the importance of ICT in education, the Ministry of Education (MOE) under the Malaysia Education Blueprint 2013-2025 has targeted all teachers should receive training in order to implement ICT in teaching to support student learning [6]. Teachers play the role as a medium between the students with technology, as the driving force in creating an ICT literates society [7]. As educators in schools, it is necessary for teachers to prepare and update all the facts to be presented in subjects using ICT facilities available in schools. The use of ICT in teaching and learning can make a subject as enjoyable event for all students [8-13], even the teacher themselves also gain experience and knowledge while interacting with students. The level of competence and knowledge of ICT skills among teachers is different in view of digital technology that exists is varied and wide scope [14]. Some educators are quick to master the knowledge and technology skills that exist while there are also educators who are still trying to master the most basic technology such as email, students file management system, internet and office productivity software. Therefore, it is important for teachers to try to improve ICT knowledge and skills through the National Educational Technology Standards for Teachers 2000 recommended by the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE). ISTE is an organization representing more than 100,000 educators who support "promoting appropriate uses of information technology to support and improve learning, teaching and administration in education and teacher education" [15]. There are six dimensions in NETS - T, i) technology operations and concepts; ii) planning and designing learning environments and experiences; iii) teaching, learning and the curriculum; iv) assessment and evaluation; v) productivity and professional practice; vi) social, ethical, legal and human issues.
  • 2. EduLearn ISSN: 2089-9823 ïČ ICT Competencies among School Teachers: A Review of Literature (Wong Ai Yieng) 377 This six dimensions are important and the standards used to evaluate the skills and knowledge needed by teachers to teach and learn in an increasingly digital global society [16]. Technology operations and concepts is the first dimension for NETS-T. This dimension assesses whether teachers demonstrate basic knowledge, skills and understanding of concepts related to technology. Next, teachers also assessed whether they show continued growth in technology knowledge and skills in line with the current technology. For second dimensions, namely planning and designing learning environments and experiences, teachers are evaluated through their effort in planning and designing effective learning environment to meet the needs of students with diverse abilities. The third dimensional in NETS-T is teaching, learning and the curriculum. This dimension assesses the efforts of teachers to implement curriculum plans that include methods and strategies with the ultimate goal of using technology to maximize student learning. For fourth dimensions is assessment and evaluation, teachers need to integrate technology strategy to diversify the effective measurement and evaluation. Therefore, teachers were assessed whether they apply the technology to assess student learning on a subject, use technology resources to collect and analyze data. Productivity and professional practice is the fifth dimensions. This dimension emphasizes teachers use technology to enhance their productivity and professional practice. So, teachers assessed whether applying technology to improve the continuous professional and use technology to communicate and collaborate with colleagues, parents and the community to improve student learning. Dimension six and last dimension is social, ethical, legal and human issues. This dimension emphasizes the teachers need to understand the social, legal and ethical issues that arise in the school due to the use of technology in schools. Therefore, teachers should serve as role models to tell about the legal and ethical practice related to technology use. They should promote the use of technology in safe and healthy ways. Based on standards in NETS-T, this paper will examine the success and the lack of teachers in ICT under six dimensional NETS-T. The success of teachers in satisfying the needs of NETS-T is an encouraging boost to the educators. However, any shortfall must be made as awareness to teachers to improve themselves to be regarded as effective educators today. 2. SUCCESS TEACHERS IN ICT UNDER SIX DIMENSIONAL NETS - T 2.1. Technology Operations and Concepts The first dimension in NETS - T is technology operations and concepts. This dimension is concerned about the attitudes, skills and knowledge technology. Researchers like [13], [17], [11], [18] found that many educators have mastered the basic skills in the use of technology. Majority of teachers believed to be capable of producing relevant documents using ICT applications, process and get information through the Internet, using multimedia in the process of teaching and learning and carry out basic operations in handling ICT tools. In this nano technology world, it is becoming a necessity and an obligation for teachers to equip themselves with knowledge and skills in the latest ICT in line with the current changes [7]. 2.2. Planning and Designing Learning Environments and Experiences This dimension requires the efforts of various parties to design a learning environment that enables students to master ICT skills consistent with the educational goals. The issue of the digital divide between rural and urban areas attract the government attention through the implementation of the telecenter (TC) and the village wifi [19]. In addition, various programs such as the Village Internet Program, Village Portal, Computer Ownership Program and Mobile Internet Program also launched as joint effort between the government and private agencies in order to achieve smart partnerships [20]. All these efforts have the same goal that every individual can engage in multimedia development and reduce the digital gap between urban and rural areas. 2.3. Teaching, Learning and the Curriculum To perform the task as educators, teacher need to have the knowledge and skills to use the computer, trying to use the internet, email and integrate technology in the classroom [21]. Therefore, all teachers are trained to efficiently use the Frog VLE (virtual learning environment) by 2016 based on the learning environment of creativity and innovation provided by the Ministry of Education as well as digital equipment like tablet or smartphone that is available to teachers and students (Utusan Malaysia, May 28, 2013). Indeed, the integration of ICT in the teaching and learning is required in view of the various advantages and benefits can be obtained [18].
  • 3. ïČ ISSN: 2089-9823 EduLearn Vol. 12, No. 3, August 2018 : 376 – 381 378 2.4. Assessment and Evaluation This dimension is no stranger to the teachers as project assessment and evaluation is an obligatory task that must be implemented by all teachers [18]. In fact, the study by researchers like [18, 11] also confirmed that teachers frequently and often provide test questions and exams, test scores and examination record and analyze the results of tests and examinations with the use of ICT. The performance data of these students is important for teachers to plan for the next lesson. The Johor states are example that can be learned with success boost of education performance from the bottom five places into the top group within just five years [6]. With the implementation of the reporting system on-line (headcount), Johor teachers managed to achieve success. Discussions about why success or failure of students to achieve the set targets will be made jointly between headmasters and teachers at the school level. Besides that, activities such as enrichment, strengthening and recovery will be followed by additional classes conducted after school hours. This impressive success can indeed serve as a role model for all school staff who want success. 2.5. Productivity and Professional Practice In this dimension, teachers have an obligation to up-skill themselves because it is equivalent to an increase in their productivity [11]. Therefore, teachers should take the opportunity and initiative to take a course or training ICT professional development organized by the school, the Education Technology Division of the State and the State Education Department to enhance the capability and capacity of their ICT [11], [22-24]. Teachers must have the self-awareness necessary to improve the efficiency and ICT skills. It is the duty of educators to educate the younger generation technology savvy generation to contribute to national development. 2.6. Social, Ethical, Legal and Human Issues This dimension is a dimension that should not be ignored by a teacher. As obtained in the study Mohd Jamil [11], teachers taught their students about the dangers of polluting the dignity of a person on the internet. Teachers also often remind students about the misuse of ICT. Teachers also insist on the students to adopt a healthy and safe life while using the internet. It is important for teachers to produce a healthy environment for primary school students to use their visual, hearing and kinesthetic senses to learn technology in education. The students will also be motivated because of the opportunity to be exposed to technology from an early age and use their senses involved in technology [21]. It will guide students in learning throughout their lives. 3. SHORTAGE OF TEACHERS IN ICT UNDER SIX DIMENSIONAL NETS - T 3.1. Technology Operations and Concepts In this dimension, teachers are criticized for not comfortable with computers [25-27] and is still not ready to support the use of technology in schools [28]. Researchers like [29-31] found that teachers have the misconception that the internet is the addition of a new workload and they are less skilled in using this application. Besides that, [28], [32,33] also notice teachers especially veteran teachers do not like to change and are not willing to learn and improve skills in using ICT and internet access. This adverse effect on student achievement because the teachers are not able to use technology effectively in schools. Similarly [20, 34] also revealed that teachers do not have the level of knowledge about the latest ICT equipment. This prevents the development and implementation of ICT in the school culture. 3.2. Planning and Designing Learning Environments and Experiences Challenges to be overcome by the teachers in this dimension is the issue of the digital divide between rural and urban areas and the issue of teachers' planning in terms of time. Siti [35], Surendran & Norazlinda [36] and Hazura [19] found that the use of computers and ICT among teachers in rural areas is lower than the city. The significant difference is not due to the level of literacy among teachers working in schools of the city or rural areas but the lack of facilities and the ability of students is lower in rural areas is the main stumbling block to the acceptance software courseware [19, 28]. This is supported by [37] which states ICT penetration is inherent inequalities between the urban and rural areas. In addition, teachers also reported to have constraints in terms of time for using ICT in the classroom [38], [8], [39], [33]. Some teachers feels that it's a waste of time to install ICT equipment for the implementation of the teaching and learning in the classroom [8], [33], [39]. There are also teachers said that the use of technologies are inconvenience as they need to find time to learn the new skills required to teach with technology [38], [40- 42]. There were also teachers give opinions using technology to encourage them to use more time to address student misconduct rather than the use of ICT to launch the process of the teaching and learning in the classroom [42-44], This prevents the development of ICT in schools.
  • 4. EduLearn ISSN: 2089-9823 ïČ ICT Competencies among School Teachers: A Review of Literature (Wong Ai Yieng) 379 3.3. Teaching, Learning and the Curriculum In this dimension, the teachers received a reprimand from various quarters for allegedly not integrate ICT in teaching and learning [45], [46], [39], [21], [11], [47], [38], [48], [49], [23], [50], [6], [8], [51]. Some researchers criticized the teachers have a high level of ICT skills but do not integrate technology in their teaching and learning [51], [6], [50], [8], [47]. This can be proven through studies [52] who found the equipment ICT is complete in schools but teachers still difficult to integrate ICT in teaching and learning. Similary, Kazi [47] also revealed that teachers use ICT facilities not for teaching and learning but for administrative purposes and to have fun like playing computer games. Besides that, there were also teachers said to be uncomfortable with technology and people expressed suspicion about whether they have ability to integrate technology into teaching and learning [45], [49], [7]. This is very detrimental to students, schools and countries in produce caliber human capital in various fields. 3.4. Assessment and Evaluation For this dimension, teachers appear less in assessing learning outcomes of students in technology [18]. In other words, teachers are less in presenting students performance in data like graphs for analysis and subsequent postmortem. This situation can be attributed to poor use of graphics among teachers and can be confirmed by the findings [53], [10], [50], [9]. Leong [18] also added that teachers make workload as the reason for the lack of student performance data presented in graphical form. 3.5. Productivity and Professional Practice In the dimension of productivity and professional practices, inadequate professional development available is a major hurdle for teachers to integrate ICT in teaching and learning [54], [53], [20], [6]. Flanagan & Jacobsen [54] and Norazlina [35] revealed that many teachers do not have the opportunity to engage in professional development to learn ICT skills required by them. For the teachers who took the opportunity and the initiative to enroll in training or courses in ICT, the skills they learned most is the skill of computer applications rather than strategic integration technologies is needed by them for the integration of ICT in the teaching and learning [51], [23], [21], [55]. At the same time, teachers also face the problem of lack of access to computers at school for drill and practice what they have learned. It is the common memory of individuals will quickly forget ICT knowledge learned if teachers are not given the opportunity to apply what they are learning in ICT professional development training. So, this prevents the development of ICT skills of individuals and in turn affect the development of ICT in schools. 3.6. Social, Ethical, Legal and Human Issues This dimension should receive serious attention from the teachers as there are a growing number of unethical behaviour in ICT . Lau and Yuen [56], Hu et al. [57] and Xu et al. [58] found the youth love stuck with three of unethical behaviour, namely i) unauthorized acts such as computer hacking and software piracy ; ii) internet stickiness and iii) plagiarism . Similarly, Lau and Yuen [56], Gunter et al. [59] and Teston [60] also confirmed that internet piracy rate is common practice in youth culture today. CONCLUSION As educators in the 21st century, teachers need to internalize this profession in line with the changing times. Highlights of this study can serve as a guide or foundation to improve weaknesses. Teachers must put in energy and expertise to integrate ICT in teaching and learning in order to polish the talent and strengthening the potential of students to be successful in all fields of endeavor.
