Pekanbaru. Indonesia sitimunawaroh6890@gmail.com ARTICLE HISTORY Received : 2019-03-15 Revised : 2021-05-27 Accepted : 2019-06-15 KEYWORDS ICT Practicum Teachers Classroom Context Likert Scale Importance Tools ABSTRACT ICT is used in the classroom context helps pre-service teacher or practicum teachers to know more learning materials beyond the textbooks. This study aims at investigating perceptions using ICT in the learning process during their pre- service teaching program. This survey research was taking EFL students at the English Education Department, Universitas Lancang Kuning, who conducted practice teaching or pre-service teaching at schools. Sixty-four students participated in this study. A set of questionnaires, with a Likert scale of 20 items and closed-ended five questions, was used to collect the data to ask their perception in ICT use during practice teaching at schools, the academic year 2019-2020. Some questionnaire items were adopted and developed from (Zare- ee 2011). The findings reveal that most pre-service teachers (90%) used ICT in the classroom. The analysis using statistical analysis (SPSS ver. 20), it was found that the mean score at 4.08 with a standard deviation value at 0.144 categorized High level. The score of standard deviation means that all of the respondents' answers are the same agree or homogenous. It means that pre- service teachers agree on the importance of using ICT in the classroom's learning process and acting as supportive tool to grasp meaningful English learning resources, especially in classroom settings. 1. Introduction Information Communication and Technology (ICT), which is so rapid in this era of globalization, cannot again influence education. Global demands force the education world to always adjust technology with efforts to improve education. Teachers increase the use of the internet to help them prepare material used for learning in the classroom. The use of technology as a learning medium helps convey learning material, especially in English learning. ICT in school education is considered as one of the important tools to make education learner-centric and helps to reduce the digital divide between different socio-economic classes in a developing country like Indonesia. Moreover, Practicum teachers ideally must have the ability and competence to use ICT for classroom learning. Equipping practice teachers with technological skills and knowledge is now considered a vital element of any teacher training program to train new teachers to meet the educational demands of the 21st century. Therefore, it is important to establish whether these teachers apply these skills when they first arrive in the field and, otherwise, what could be the factors that hinder them (Tshepo and Abraham, 2017). Also, this time almost all teacher training programs worldwide have a technology training component (Yuksel and Kavanoz, 2011). Therefore, compared to their predecessors, today's pre-service teachers are better positioned to make technology part of their teaching due to training. These new teachers do not have to unlearn the teaching habits that have been established for a long time. They could start with innovative teaching techniques that support the use of technology. This is why it is essential to focus on where new teachers begin their teaching to establish them towards revolutionary teaching. Information and telecommunications have very important and real, especially since the community is currently heading towards the scientific community. ICT is a demand that prospective teachers must-have in the future. Teachers who can use ICT will greatly help in the learning process in the classroom because technology in principle is to facilitate someone in doing something. Now students are intense and familiar with the use of ICT, including the use of smartphones and PCs to find the references they need in learning English. The practicum teachers must update in obtaining and providing information so that his knowledge develops to the fullest. Students will be able to get something better https://journal.unilak.ac.id/index.php/UTAMAX/ 55 and more accurate when they can get access to information through the internet. Teachers/ Practicum teachers also need more updates on ICT knowledge to make good teaching and create the best teaching for students. Because most students already use ICT a lot, smartphones, especially in their daily activities. Therefore, based on the ideas mentioned above, the researcher will investigate Perceptions of English Education Department Students on ICT Use During Practice Teaching at Classroom Context with research questions as follow: 1. How are Perceptions of English Education Department Students on ICT Use During Practice Teaching at Classroom Context Thus, this study attempts that perceptions on the use of ICT in the classroom context are high level it means good perceptions in learning and can be used as EFL learning strategies. This can be an effective supplementary material to make the learning process more interesting for students. 2. Methods The study in this research is quantitative research. Creswell (2014) states that quantitative research is an approach for testing objective theories by examining the relationship between the variables. These variables, in turn, can be measured, typically on instruments, so that numbered data can be analyzed using statistical procedures. This quantitative research was designed as a survey study. Survey research provides a quantitative or numeric description of trends, attitudes, or opinions of a population by studying that population sample. The researcher was use cross-sectional studies questionnaires for data collection with the intent of generalizing from a sample to a population. In this study, researchers used one variable, namely the Practicum Teachers Perceptions use of ICT in the Classroom in Teaching English. The instrument in this study was a questionnaire. Besides the essay questionnaire, the content is open-ended question practicum teacher used ICT in the classroom context. This questionnaire was distributed to the faculty of education and training of Universitas Lancang Kuning teachers, especially Practicum Teachers. This research was conducted in May 2020 in the English Department (Practicum teachers) Faculty of Education and Teachers Training Universitas Lancang Kuning Academic Year 2019/2020. This campus is located at Yos Sudarso St. KM. 8, Rumbai, Pekanbaru, Riau. These research populations are the English Practicum Teachers in the English Department, Faculty of Education and Teachers Training in Universitas Lancang Kuning Academic Year 2019/2020. The sample consists of 64 students from practicum teachers’ students in the seventh semester. In order to collect the data, the researcher used an online questionnaire that was Google From. The questionnaire consisted of 25 items, such as an open- ended questionnaire using ICT at the classroom context, practicum teachers' knowledge about ICT, the Perception of ICT in the classroom, and Practicum Teachers Opinion Using ICT. Also, the researcher used the Likert scale for collecting the data. It means every item in the questionnaires consists of 5 choices, that is “Strongly Agree,” “Agree”, “Neutral”, “Disagree”, and “Strongly Disagree”. The data collected was analyzed using the SPSS statistical package. A descriptive statistics analysis was carried out to see the score of teachers’ and students’ answers. After analyzing the data by using Descriptive Statistics, the researcher continued to analyzing it by categorize them into Katz and Kahn range Likert scale (1978) as follows: 3.

On using statistical analysis (SPSS), it was found that the mean score at 4.08 with a standard deviation value at 0.144 categorized High level. The score of standard deviation means that all of the answers from respondents are the same agree or homogenous it means that practicum teachers agree on the importance of using ICT in the learning process in the classroom. In addition, the use of ICT has benefits for practicum teachers. Therefore, the researcher concludes that it is a supportive tool to grasp meaningful English learning resources, especially in classroom settings. To conclude, this present study was administered to find out Practicum teachers perceptions’ towards the benefits use of ICT in the English language learning process. This research shows that perceptions on the use of ICT in the classroom context is high level. It means good perceptions in learning and can be used as EFL learning strategies. The use of ICT is recommended to be applied to practicum teachers/teachers in teaching EFL. Teachers should learn more about ICT and apply it to their teaching to improve their knowledge and skills in teaching EFL. This can be an effective supplementary material to make the learning process more interesting for students.
