| dc.description.abstract | For the past few years we have been commonly hearing that the only thing which is constant is change. One of the main reasons for that is development and use of new information technologies (hereinafter: IT). In many industries, implementation of IT solutions has improved and changed process flows. Impacts of IT can also be found in educational processes. Nowadays, marks of chalk in classrooms can only be found within an Art class. Majority of classrooms are equipped with at least one of the IT innovations; computer, projector, interactive white board, internet connection, etc. Since today’s pupils are raised with presence of modern IT at every step and consequently with the modern lifestyle, they are losing the initial contact with the traditional way of learning. That is why it makes sense to think about alternatives to traditional learning, to raise the motivation among students and prepare them to accept more information, as well as to link new information with the already obtained knowledge and store it in long-term memory (Clark & Mayer, 2011, p. 36). Integrating technologies in educational process offers alternative channels to deliver knowledge in pursuit of promoting learning and motivating pupils. In the last few years, we have been witnesses to a large promotion of e-materials use in classrooms. However, use of e-materials does not only require technologically equipped classrooms, but mostly a change in the way of teaching. Since the educational system has been moving quite slowly towards changes, there has not been a massive adoption of e-materials in classrooms, especially by teachers (Demetriadis et al., 2003, pp. 19-20). | pt_PT |
