Abstract—Over the past decade, teachers are becoming
more familiar with the use of Information Communication
Technology (ICT) in the classrooms. Many studies have
shown the benefits of using ICT in classrooms. However,
there are evidence that the ICT reform efforts have failed
because the teacher’s beliefs, skills, and attitudes were never
taken into consideration. Studies shows that most research
only focuses on students’ opinion towards ICT. Besides that,
this study tries to investigate the teachers’ perspectives and
practices towards the use of ICT in the classrooms. A survey
was conducted to collect the data. Using a revised expectancy-value
theory called the Technology Implementation
Questionnaire (TIQ), a questionnaire was administered to
20 elementary teachers from the public schools sector in
Depok, West Java. The findings revealed that there are
teachers with more than 10 years of teaching experience
but never got any formal training on using ICT. Overall, the
teachers have a positive perspective towards applying ICT
in their classrooms, even though they lack of technical support
from the schools and lack of ICT proficiency. .
Index Terms—ICT, Teachers’ perspectives and practices,
