BATU KAWAN: Students in rural areas such as Kampung Pulau Aman (
pix), near here have voiced their concerns over the limited internet access issues they face which can disrupt their learning process.
Hanis Syuhada Razali, 16, said home-based teaching and learning (PdPR) has become quite a challenge for students with limited internet access.
“The internet connection at my house which is located about 200 metres from the Pulau Aman jetty is very limited and unstable...sometimes I have to walk out of my house just to get a better internet connection.
“I also find it a bit difficult to concentrate compared to face-to-face learning. I hope that I will be able to stay focused and will not fall behind in my studies,” the Form Four student of Sekolah Menengah Sains Tun Syed Sheh Shahabuddin near Bukit Mertajam, Seberang Perai Tengah told reporters when met at her house, here, today.
