Ia menjadi salah satu unsur pemangkin kepada kemajuan negara. Objektif utama kajian ini ialah untuk mengukur tahap literasi komputer pelajar – pelajar sekolah menengah atas Negeri Kedah. Ia juga bertujuan untuk mengenal pasti sama ada terdapat hubungan di antara tahap pendidikan dan tingkat pendapatan ibu bapa dengan tahap literasi komputer pelajar. Selain itu, kajian ini turut mengenal pasti sama ada terdapat hubungan di antara sikap dengan kemahiran menggunakan komputer dalam ukuran tahap literasi komputer pelajar. Data dalam kajian ini diperoleh melalui soal selidik yang telah diedarkan kepada 698 orang pelajar Tingkatan Empat, Tingkatan Lima dan Tingkatan Enam Rendah dari duabelas buah sekolah menengah mewakili tujuh daerah di Negeri Kedah. Alat ukuran yang digunakan ialah Attitude Toward Computer Scale (ATCS), Computer Self – Efficiency Scale (CSES) dan Minnesota Computer Literacy and Awareness Assessment Test (MCLAAT). Kaedah min, peratusan, Ujian Chi Kuasa Dua dan Ujian Cramer V digunakan bagi mengukur objektif dan menguji hipotesis kajian. Paras keertian 0.05 ditetapkan untuk menerima atau menolak hipotesis nul. Data dari kajian ini dianalisis menggunakan pakej Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) versi 12.0. Dapatan kajian menunjukkan tahap literasi komputer pelajar adalah sederhana tinggi dengan min skor 66.67%. Hasil kajian turut mendapati bahawa terdapat hubungan bererti di antara tahap pendidikan dan tingkat pendapatan ibu bapa dengan tahap literasi komputer pelajar. Namun, tidak terdapat hubungan bererti di antara sikap dengan kemahiran dalam ukuran literasi komputer pelajar. Dapatan kajian turut menyarankan agar setiap sekolah mengadakan lebih banyak aktiviti yang dapat memberi pendedahan mengenai komputer kepada pelajar agar tahap literasi komputer mereka bertambah baik dari semasa ke semasa.
ABSTRACT : Computer literacy has become the main agenda in today’s life. It has become one of the main sources for a country’s development. The main objective of the research is to measure the level of computer literacy among upper secondary school students in the state of Kedah. Moreover the research is to identify the relationship between parent’s level of education and income with student’s computer literacy. Furthermore the study also explores the relationship between student’s attitude and computer skill with computer literacy. Data was collected through the questionnaires distributed to 698 students from form four, form five and Lower Six in twelve secondary schools of seven provinces in Kedah state. Tools for measurement used in this study are Attitude Toward Computer Scale (ATCS), Computer Self – Efficiency Scale (CSES) and Minnesota Computer Literacy and Awareness Assessment Test (MCLAAT). To measure the objective and to examine the hypotheses of the study, tests such as mean, percentage, Chi Square and Cramer V are used. Significance level of 0.05 is used to accept or to reject the null hypothesis. Data is analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 12.0. The study finds that the student’s computer literacy level is moderately high with mean score of 66.67%. The overall findings conclude that there is a significance relationship between parent’s level of education and income with student’s computer literacy. However there is no significance relationship between student’s attitude and computer skill with computer literacy. The study suggests that schools should offer more computer related activities as to increase student’s computer literacy level. | Item Type: | Journal |
