KATA PENGHANTAR

Kurikulum mata pelajaran Teknologi Maklumat (TM) telah dilaksanakan sejak tahun 1999. Lantaran
kepesatan pembangunan dan kemajuan dalam bidang teknologi maklumat maka kandungan kurikulum
mata pelajaran ini telah disemak semula dan dikemaskini untuk disesuaikan dengan kepesatan
perubahan tersebut. Pada masa yang sama, mata pelajaran TM ini telah dikategorikan sebagai mata
pelajaran Sains dan Teknologi maka bermula pada tahun 2006 mata pelajaran ini akan diajar dalam
bahasa Inggeris.

Selari dengan perkembangan di atas, nama mata pelajaran ini telah diubah daripada Teknologi Maklumat
(Information Technology) kepada Information and Communication Technology (ICT). Dalam kurikulum
yang disemak semula ini, di samping penyampaian bidang pengetahuan dalam ICT, penekanan kepada
bidang kemahiran ICT dipertingkatkan. Penekanan ini bertujuan untuk memantapkan pelaksanaan
kurikulum ICT di sekolah-sekolah menengah bagi meningkatkan minat, ilmu pengetahuan dan kemahiran
pelajar untuk melanjutkan pelajaran dalam bidang ICT atau menceburi kerjaya yang berkaitan dengannya.

Usaha penyemakan semula Sukatan Pelajaran ICT ini telah melibatkan banyak pihak termasuk, pihak
universiti-universiti tempatan, maktab-maktab perguruan dan wakil-wakil dari sektor swasta. Pada
kesempatan ini, saya merakamkan ucapan setinggi-tinggi penghargaan dan terima kasih kepada semua
pihak yang telah memberikan sumbangan kepakaran, masa dan fikiran untuk membina Sukatan Pelajaran
ICT ini.

Akhir kata, semoga kandungan sukatan pelajaran ini memenuhi kehendak tuntutan perkembangan ICT
semasa dan membantu guru dalam perancangan dan persediaan pengajaran dan pembelajaran ICT di
sekolah.

SELAMAT MAJU JAYA

INTRODUCTION
The Malaysian school curriculum is based on the National Education Philosophy. Underpinning
this philosophy is the holistic development of the individual as an intellectual, emotional,
physical and spiritual being. The introduction of Information and Communication Technology
(ICT) as an elective subject for the Upper Secondary Level in the Kurikulum Bersepadu Sekolah
Menengah (KBSM) is a move towards producing a technologically capable work force that is
able to participate fully in the global economy of the 21st century. Thus, this curriculum offers
learners with basic ICT skills the opportunity to further develop their interest in specific areas
offered in the syllabus.

Information and Communication Technology is an area of study, which involves various fields
specifically communications and computer systems. ICT is the technology required for
information processing, in particular, the use of electronic computers, communication devices
and software applications to convert, store, protect, process, transmit, and retrieve information
from anywhere, anytime. Therefore, the curriculum focuses on both software applications and
hardware knowledge in managing diverse forms of information. Given the dynamic nature of the
field of study, the scope of this subject will keep in pace with rapidly changing developments
and innovations in ICT.

AIM
The aims of the Information and Communication Technology curriculum at the school level are
to provide students with knowledge and skills in ICT to enable them to solve problems and
make informed decisions in everyday life based on positive attitudes and noble values, and to
develop concerned, dynamic and progressive individuals with an ICT culture that values
knowledge and ethics towards the technological advancement of the nation.

OBJECTIVES
Learners should be able to:
• acquire knowledge about ICT principles, processes and related fields

• examine and understand ICT principles, processes and related fields

• communicate and manage information effectively through ICT

1

• apply ICT knowledge and skills in the learning area to be taught

• generate ideas and produce problem-solving output by using either multimedia,
programming or database application to meet identified needs

• show awareness of the technology usage and impact on the individual and society
through ethical practices

• appreciate the role and significance of ICT and its impact on society and economy

CONTENT ORGANISATION
The curriculum emphasises the integration of Knowledge, Skills and Values.
Knowledge

The Knowledge aspect in the ICT curriculum comprises the following:

• concepts, facts and terminologies of ICT
• procedures in managing computer systems
• sequential processes in developing products
• programming commands and syntax
• current and future issues related to ICT

Skills

The skills in the ICT curriculum are:

a. Communication Skills
This involves:
• information sharing and dissemination

• production through various means including graphic presentation,
sketching and proto-typing using Information and Communication
Technology

• identifying, elaborating and interpreting various points of view

• exploiting, accessing and processing information with confidence and
competence

• ensuring security of information dissemination

b. Information Management Skills
The curriculum provides opportunities to develop information management

2

skills through:
• maintaining the integration of the information

• using various inquiry techniques
• identifying, searching, collecting, saving, accessing and processing
information

• categorising, analysing, synthesising and evaluating information

• presenting information clearly, logically, accurately and precisely

c. Managing Computer Systems
This involves the use of computer hardware and software for communications
and problem-solving including the ability to identify, assemble and maintain
computer systems.

d. Problem-solving Skills
Problem-solving skills encompass the following:
• logic and programming

• critical, creative, reflective and mantic thinking

• imaginative, initiative and flexibility

• identification, description, and re-interpretation of problems and analysis
from various perspectives
• investigation, exploration and generation of ideas

• testing ideas and solutions, and making decisions based on experience
and sound rationale

• process and product evaluation

Values
Inherent within any successful use of ICT is the ability to handle information systems
with diligence, accuracy, precision and confidence. Furthermore, the codes of ethics of
communication in ICT will instil qualities like responsibility, respect, cooperation and
accountability.

TEACHING-LEARNING APPROACHES
The ICT curriculum comprises six learning areas which need not be implemented in the order as
organised in the syllabus. Thus, the teaching-learning process may begin with any learning area

3

provided learners have mastered the basic skills of ICT. Teachers are encouraged to apply self-
directed, self-accessed, self-assessed and self-paced (SeDAAP) approaches whilst acting as
facilitators in teaching the six learning areas. In addition, the teacher has to play an important
role in teaching the concepts and skills of each learning area.

The ICT curriculum is process-based. As the teaching and learning strategies are hands-on and
minds-on, much of the teaching-learning processes are practical in nature.
The two principles used are “learn with ICT” and “learn about ICT”.
a. The “learn with ICT” enables learners to apply acquired basic ICT knowledge and
skills to become effective users.

b. The “learn about ICT” equips learners with ICT knowledge and skills that contribute
to technological advancements.

SYLLABUS CONTENT
The ICT syllabus is organized into six (6) learning areas namely:
• Information and Communication Technology
and Society

• Computer Systems

• Computer Networks and Communications

• Multimedia

• Programming

• Information Systems

Each learning area consists of TOPICS and SCOPE. TOPICS is a list of selected area to be
