Challange In Smart School

                1. Huge investment on facilities

The costs and maintenance fees for the facilities are high

Need many high-tech facilities

   2. Training

 

New teachers lack of intensive training

Teacher as primary deliverer must have intensive training in using ICT and also must have full readiness for the implementation of Smart School

   3. Lack of manpower in handling the technical problem

 

Some schools do not have enough technician

              4.Smart School courseware was found to be under-utilised

Teacher lack ICT knowledge and not comfortable with the use of hardware and courseware

Prefer traditional way of teaching which is chalk and talk
