The Institute of Media and Information Science of the Eszterházy Károly College joined by the College’s Demonstration Elementary School launched a pedagogical and methodological experiment in the 2009/2010 academic year. As a result of this new and exciting venture aiming to promote efficient and productive digital literacy all fifth grade students of the Demonstration School can start their studies in an electronic and interactive learning environment comprised of projectors, interactive boards and such IP cameras, which facilitate the synchronous broadcast and archiving of lessons and presentations on-line. Furthermore, the traditional workstations were superseded by Classmate PC machines in the respective classrooms.

In addition to elaborating electronic learning environments for students, the technical and professional support efforts included instructors as well. Consequently, in 2008 all instructors were provided with notebook computers. Moreover, professional training programs familiarised interested instructors with the foundations of electronic educational material development, and with the use of the MOODLE LMS framework and the Mahara electronic portfolio.

In the summer of 2009 teachers of the Demonstration School of the College were provided professional training. Accordingly, fifth grade teachers were familiarised with the technological foundations and the methodology of the efficient use of such equipment and devices as the CMPC, the Interactive Whiteboard and e-presentations.

In our presentation we would like to describe our experience of this project.
