Summary: | Mathematics teaching and learning is an important factor that leads to the success of the students’
achievement. Since mathematics is one of the important subjects at Malaysian Institute of Information
Technology (MIIT), Universiti Kuala Lumpur, this study aims to investigate on ICT application in learning
mathematics among engineering technology students. The use of e learning and internet resources including
social networking medium is integrated in traditional approach teaching mathematics. Ten bachelor students
from Networking System program were selected to be the research participants. Semi-structured interviews and
documents analysis were used to gather the information on their experience in learning mathematics using the
ICT. The research findings revealed that the ICT could assist students in their understanding of the
mathematics concept and were able to solve problem solving. This research also draws conclusion and
recommendations to improve lecturers’ style of teaching by using ICT equipment as a tool to make the teaching
and learning environment more meaningful and interesting. |
