Abstract
The digitization of materials in education is a sophisticated platform that is increasingly being used by Malay language teachers in the classroom. This digitization is increasingly imposed by teachers, and many related studies that have been done. In line with this research, the study was conducted to examine the significant effectiveness of Malay language teacher’s confidence and self-proactivity on the use of digital materials in the teaching of factual essays. The study revolved around teacher’s opinions based on the dimensions of self-confidence and proactiveness. A survey method through a quantitative study design based on questionnaires is used in this research. The study sample consisted of 30 Malay language teachers for secondary schools in the district of Shah Alam, Selangor. The study data were analyzed descriptively; mean and standard deviation. The inferential data were from the One-Sample t-Test to test the mean effectiveness of each dimension. The results of this study show that there is a significant mean difference for both dimensions. For the self-confidence dimension, t = 37.1, while the self-proactivity dimension, t = 49.6. Both dimensions were set a significance level <0.05 (df = 29). Implications from this study suggest that self-confidence and proactiveness are important to be measured by teachers so that the use of digital materials becomes an active new norm in the context of factual essay teaching in the 21st century. It is recommended that teachers be given extensive exposure to the use of digital materials in the classroom. The purpose is to increase the stimulus of Malay language teachers in the context of the use of ICT-based materials.
