Nekje piše, da je uporaba IKT v šolstvu tako pomembna kot vlak, ki ga ne smemo zamuditi. Z izdelovanjem lastnih e-gradiv je povezanih več neprijetnih dejavnikov (ogromna poraba časa, neznanje v uporabi določenih orodij …). Svetovni splet je prava zakladnica informacij, treba jih je le poiskati in jih seveda uporabiti v učnem procesu. Torej, uporaba obstoječih e-gradiv, da ali ne? Rezultati kažejo, da jih je vsekakor smiselno uporabljati, vendar ne za vsako ceno. Učitelj mora biti moder in jih mora znati vnesti v pouk, ne sme pa zanemariti praktičnega dela – eksperimentov, živega materiala.
V prispevku sem se osredotočila na kemijo. Obstoječa e-gradiva so v večini primerov, ki sem jih preizkusila, dobro zasnovana, le pri nekaterih sem zasledila nekaj manjših napak. Le-te pa lahko otroke kar hitro vznemirijo, saj je zanje računalnik nezmotljiv. E-gradiva so torej dobrodošla popestritev pouka, vseeno pa je učitelj tisti, ki ga računalnik ne more nadomestiti.

Abstract

I once read that Information and Communications Technology in education is like a train that we must not miss. Preparing your own e-materials can take a great deal of time, as teachers may not be familiar with some computer tools. There are many e-materials on the Internet that should be used properly in the education process. The question is, are existing e-materials good enough to be used in the classroom? The results suggest that they must be used with careful consideration, but not at any price. E-materials are as important as practical work, and teachers must choose the most effective pedagogical method.
I have used e-materials in chemistry and I have noticed that most materials are well planned and designed. Some have a few minor mistakes that can confuse pupils. E-materials make lessons more interesting but they cannot replace the teacher.
