Publication at Faculty of Humanities |

Abstract

The article focuses on the way in which current Czech pupils and students as the representatives of the so-called "tactile generation" use various types of media in formal and informal education and what their teachers think about using media in education. The research was designed as a practical research.

Pupils from one elementary school in Prague (10 - 15 years) and students from two high schools (15 - 20 years) participated in this research. This research serves as the basis for discussion of the role of (new) media in the process of education of Czech youth.
