Paving Malaysian education for digitalisation: what do we miss?

The world revolution has shown a rapid movement towards digitalisation. The process has expanded the use of digital technologies, not only by transforming business operations but also by increasing productivity and shaping new values across various domains. These changes impact not only industries but also educational institutions, paving the way for the application of digital technologies. To cater to the needs of industry, higher education has begun to integrate digital technologies into teaching and learning. Digital learning is becoming an integral part of the education process currently, yet there are inherent challenges faced by the parties involved that need to be considered. This is due to supporting Malaysia’s opening gambit in providing, enhancing, and reshaping skills for the labour force in the digital landscape (Sharon, October 17, 2024). Therefore, it is crucial to review the loopholes in the process of digitalising the Malaysian education system for teaching and learning.
