Case Study: SMK Taman Desa Jaya boosts engagement and digital learning with Google for Education

How SMK Taman Desa Jaya sparks excitement to learn with Google for Education

SMK Taman Desa Jaya, a public secondary school in Johor’s Pasir Gudang District, needed a simpler way to move teaching and learning online when the pandemic hit. Its existing e-learning platform was too complex for teachers to use effectively and offered limited student engagement, which led to falling attendance. The school turned to Google for Education and the DELIMa platform, using tools like Google Classroom and Google Meet, along with Chromebooks.

With Google for Education, SMK Taman Desa Jaya improved digital collaboration, teacher confidence, and student participation. Teachers quickly adopted Google Classroom, students became more independent, and some even began creating their own digital content. The school reported a 20% increase in student attendance within two months, while also saving printing costs and building a stronger foundation for hybrid learning.
