In spite of English being regarded as the second most | |
important language in Malaysia, it is still treated as a | |
foreign language inevitably. The recently introduced Dual | |
Language Progamme (henceforth DLP) which uses English as | |
the medium of instruction in teaching Mathematics and | |
Science is alleged to be a reflection of the less | |
successful English for teaching Mathematics and Science | |
policy (hereafter PPSMI). Therefore, this paper aims to | |
examine the perceptions of pre-service teachers towards | |
the use of English in teaching Mathematics and Science | |
and establish its connections with the DLP. Data were | |
collected through questionnaire which involved 50 | |
respondents. Findings showed that the respondents held | |
unfavourable perceptions of the PPSMI policy which in | |
turn justified the emergence of the DLP. Implications of | |
the study and suggestions for future research are also | |
discussed. | |
