Abstract
A descriptive study was conducted to observe the readiness of Frog Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) utilization as a teaching method among teachers in a secondary school located in the district of Northern Seberang Perai. One hundred (100) teachers were involved in the study. A set of questionnaires comprising respondents’ demographics and their background knowledge of ICT was used as the instrument of the study. Analysis of result from the correlation analysis indicated that there was a significant correlation between the teachers’ basic knowledge of ICT and the Frog VLE course attended. However, the correlation analysis failed to indicate any significant correlation between the teachers’ attitudes and skills in accessing Frog VLE after attending the training. Numerous recommendations were proposed to overcome this challenge.
