This study seeks to examine the use of ICT by students in the process of teaching and facilitating (PdPc) the subject of Agriculture. Experimentation and the quantitative method using questionnaires have been adopted in this study. The qualitative method using interviews is also carried out. The choice of the subject for the study is also done through the purposive sampling involving 96 Form Four students in Agriculture stream in 4 secondary schools in the District of Kubang Pasu. The study subject comprises of two conventional groups and two ICT groups. The descriptive statistic analysis is adopted, to explain the study variable based on the demography of gender and computer ownership. Meanwhile, the inference statistic analysis namely MANOVA and Pearson correlation are employed to the hypothesis of the study. The study outcome shows that there is a significant difference towards the variable of knowledge and interaction to both groups of students. The study finding also demonstrates that there is a significant difference between ICT knowledge and the aspect of student demography. The Pearson correlation analysis also shows that there is a significant relationship between the level of motivation and student interactions and the level of knowledge and student interaction. The interview analysis outcome finds that there are two main themes namely the factor that causes students to be more motivated if teacher uses ICT and there is a positive interaction effect if ICT is used during the PdPc. The conclusion from the study shows that the use of ICT in the PdPc process really leaves an impact on the knowledge, motivation and interaction of the students and it is able to increase the PdPc of Agriculture subject.
