Abstract

Perkembangan bidang teknologi dalam sistem pendidikan Bahasa Melayu pada alaf ini sedang mengalami transformasi yang amat pesat. Transformasi dalam bidang ini, terutamanya dalam pengajaran dan pembelajaran Bahasa Melayu dapat dilihat menerusi kewujudan dan penggunaan bahan yang interaktif dengan berasaskan laman web. Dalam mentransformasikan perkembangan tersebut, kajian ini dilakukan untuk mengenal pasti kefahaman membaca kanak-kanak dengan menggunakan bahan bacaan interaktif. Dua kumpulan kajian dikenal pasti dalam kajian ini. Sampel kajian terdiri daripada 60 orang kanak-kanak lapan tahun, masing-masing 30 orang di Perak dan Selangor. Bagi setiap negeri, satu kumpulan telah didedahkan dengan penggunaan bahan bacaan berasaskan laman web. Satu kumpulan yang lain pula telah didedahkan dengan penggunaan bahan konvensional. Data kajian dianalisis secara deskriptif dan inferensi. Data deskriptif ialah min dan sisihan piawai. Data inferensi pula dianalisis dengan menggunakan statistik ANCOVA. Dapatan kajian menunjukkan bahawa terdapat perbezaan yang signifikan antara penggunaan bahan bacaan interaktif berasaskan laman web dengan penggunaan bahan konvensional apabila ujian pra dikawal secara statistik atau dikovariatkan. Dari segi penggunaannya, bahan bacaan berasaskan laman web mampu menjana murid lebih kreatif dan kritis untuk memahami bacaan. Justeru, dicadangkan supaya pihak Kementerian Pendidikan Malaysia dan Pusat PERMATA Negara melaksanakan penggunaan bahan berkenaan secara giat dalam usaha meningkatkan kefahaman membaca kanak-kanak.

A great competition in terms of the use of computer based materials and information technology dynamically  occurs in the classroom in this era of digital transformation. The use of a variety of technology-based materials is strongly encouraged teaching in order to generate learning that based on effective strategies. In the context of mind assimilation and accommodation, the beginning of teaching that based on various language skills for children should be involved with the exploration of high level knowledge. In achieving that aspiration, this research aims to identify the effect of using interactive web-based reading materials towards student’s reading performance. The use of interactive web based is compared to the use of conventional material. The sample involves 60 eight years old primary school children in Perak (30 students) and Selangor (30 students). The descriptive data are mean and standard deviation while the inferential data is ANCOVA statistic. The finding of this study showed that there is asignificant difference in the achievement of reading comprehension of children exposed to the use of interactive web-based reading materials compared to the use of conventional materials. The improvement in achievement in terms of reading comprehension suggests that the reading material is suitable for reading in this era of technology. Hence, it is recommended to the Ministry of Education of Malaysia and the PERMATA National Centre to intensify its use in the classroom.
