Exploring The Readiness of Google Slides Pedagogical Practices: Perspective of Primary Teachers

Open access
This study explores the readiness of Google Slides pedagogical practices regarding knowledge, skill, and attitude levels among primary teachers. The study was conducted using an online questionnaire to collect data. This research has utilised questionnaires as the research instrument. The sampling method used in this research is stratified random sampling. The quantitative method has been used in the study. A total of 40 respondents from Primary school teachers were selected through a simple random sampling method to answer the questionnaire. The findings indicated that the teacher's knowledge and skill levels are high among the teachers.
Moreover, teachers' attitude towards using Google Slides in teaching and learning was positive. Inferential analysis using the T-test was conducted to compare the differences in the knowledge, skill, and attitude levels towards gender. The inference analysis revealed significant differences in knowledge levels associated with the teacher's gender. In contrast, there were no significant differences in skill levels and attitudes related to teacher gender when using Google Slides. Hence, this study contributes to the significant empirical results on the readiness of Google Slides pedagogical practices among primary teachers. The implications of this study are expected to contribute to government, stakeholders, teachers, students, school administrators, and educational organisations, especially practical and theoretical implications regarding teachers' readiness in terms of knowledge, skill, and attitude toward using Google Slides in teaching and learning.
