Teachers are encouraged to tap into the Internet resources to get supplementary notes for their students.
Penang Education director Ahmad Husain said teachers should keep up with time and incorporate new ways of doing things in view of the information and communication technology (ICT) age.
"Teachers too need to improve themselves. They have to value the pursuit of lifelong learning and continue to upgrade themselves.
"They should equip themselves with skills, knowledge and understanding on when and how to use ICT effectively in the classroom," he said in his speech during the island district level Teachers Day celebration at Dewan Sri Pinang in Penang yesterday.
Ahmad also said teachers should continue to sharpen their thinking in terms of substance, creativity and quality.
"They are the role models for students. Whatever they do, children will follow.
"Other than furnishing themselves with such qualities, teachers too must foster all-round personal quality among the students," he added.
More than 100 teachers and school heads attended the celebration yesterday.
