Abstract

In the time when almost every student has their own smart phone or tablet, there is a need for using these technology in school. The opposite approach would lead to further separation of school and school activities from the students' real life.

The use of m-technology in education naturally brings certain pitfalls. One of the biggest is the disruption of students' attention.

Experience from foreign schools where education was completely transfered into electronic shape, prove that everything depends only on the conception and organization. The authors of this paper present and discuss mobile apps which can be used directly in the problem-based, inquiry-based or project-based education.
