Teaching/learning technologies in comprehensive schools are rapidly changing. Increasing amount of information, growing pupils’ learning load raises the need to search for new, more effective teaching/learning methods. One of them is conversion of traditional teaching content into digital. On the other hand, such practice can’t stay only in the hands of editors and other interested business representatives. Pedagogical validity and assessment problem becomes urgent. Therefore, a complex pedagogical evaluation research was carried out between January and April, 2011.
20 teachers participated in the digital content testing, who totally gave 577 lessons. In the lessons a) an interactive board (IL) was used, and a lesson content was prepared by Power Point (PPT) slide show or Active Inspire (AcIns) programme; b) projector (S), and a lesson content - by PPT or AcIns.
We can basically assert that digital teaching/learning content is a perspective way searching to improve education process.
Key words: digital content, natural science education, pedagogical evaluation, teaching and learning.
