Encourage students to cheat in class and on ho

meworks - students do not have to think for the a
nswer and just search on the internet.

Higher cost for government - government need to i

nvest a lot of money in electronic facilities.

chnology.
CHALLENGES OF SMART SCHOOL
The teacher especially senior teachers has been blended with traditional methods and
difficult to adapt new instructional technology.
Teachers must complete himself or herself with ICT knowledges and skills. This is because t
eachers have a big responsible to teach and deliver knowledges to the students for master in
using ICT.

Shortage of technology facilities. The computer labs not in adequate number. There are also
hardware problems related to LANs, PCs and servers.
We can overcome the lack of facilities with the estimate of budget. KPM must have a plan to
give each smart school a good facilities to student create smart school.

Hardware, software and courseware problem. The software and hardware are out of date.
Software that supply by KPM cannot be used by schools computer.
KKM must update all software and hardware to all smart school so the program of smart sch
ool will success. Also give the school all news brands of technology.
 The school in rural area has very limited internet coverage.
Provide more internet broadband facilities or 1Malaysia Internet Centre (PI1M) at the rural
area so students or teachers can access internet whenever they need. PI1M in a rural area are
built in a low-costing area.

Lack of information about smart school among citizens.

Organize campaigns about the importants of smart school and promote to everyone.

Insufficiency of manpower in handling the technical problems.

Government should provide a skilled technician to every school. Every school should have
enough technician to repair if there any problems.
 CONCLUSION
If the challenges and the weakness of the smart school can be overcome, we
can achieve the target to develop the smart school and students with a more
critical and creative ways to use technology as enablers. The existence of a
smart school will create new millennium education in Malaysia and in
accordance with the technological developments, social and cultural present.
We also can improved our educational and have a same of level educational
with other developed countries.
