ICT in the Science lessons in primary schools in the Sarikei District, Sarawak.
The data collected through using questionnaires and interviews. Forty five
teachers who teach Science subject were randomly selected from 172 Science
teachers in Sarikei District as respondents in this study. SPSS programme is used

The findings showed that the level of integrated ICT in the Science lessons in
primary schools is still low. They showed good perception toward computer
usage in teaching and learning. The finding also shows the skill of using
computer is still at the low level. The research also showed the problems which
teachers are facing in teaching and learning science in class.
