Journal Title: International Journal of Social Science And Human Research - Year 2024, Vol 7, Issue 07
Abstract
Speaking skills are an important component in the development of students' language and communication skills at school. The Interactive Malay Language Skills Program (PIKeBM) has been introduced as a mandatory insert during co-curricular activities to strengthen speaking skills among students. This study aims to identify and explore the level of readiness that covers the knowledge, skills, and attitudes of Malay language teachers of Chinese National Type Schools (SJKC) in the Klang district, Selangor, towards the implementation of PIKeBM. The data collection of this study was done by the questionnaire, which included 30 SJKC Malay teacher as a respondent. Data was analyzed by Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) version 29.0 Descriptive analysis presented demographic findings as well as knowledge, skills and attitude variables using frequency (n), percent (%), mean and standard deviation. The inferential analysis used is an independent sample t-test to study the differences between the study variables. The study's findings indicate that SJKC Malay Language teachers have a high level of knowledge and are positive about PIKeBM implementation. The level of skill required for PIKeBM implementation is moderate. Therefore, the Malay language teachers at SJKC are seen to have equipped themselves with knowledge of the implementation of PIKeBM, which started to be implemented around March 2021. Nevertheless, the strengthening of skills for teachers in implementing PikeBM needs to be implemented to ensure that teachers are sufficiently prepared to implement PikeBM as a compulsory additional element in co-curricular activities at all levels of schooling. The researcher also hopes that studies from various perspectives related to PIKeBM will also be conducted since studies related to PIKeBM are still limited.
