Summary: | Despite the advances in technology and increase of internet usage which provide numerous benefits to mankind, little is known about the problems and related issues such as the ethical issues and behavior of using the internet. Hence, it is crucial for researchers to study on the ethical issues relating to the use of information and communication technologies (ICT). This paper extends prior researches by investigating and exploring the use of ICT and ethical issues in Malaysian primary school. This study relates with four ICT issues proposed by Mason: privacy, accuracy, property and accessibility (known as the PAPA model). In this study, the quantitative methodology has been adopted by distributing questionnaires among students. The results indicated that the students are able to comprehend the ethical issues in the use of ICT. |
