Abstract :
The paper deals with the research in the field of technical subject instruction. The research was divided into two parts. First, the pedagogical experiment ran following the “pre-test - instruction - post-test” structure providing comparison of students´ knowledge defined by the level of test scores. The process of instruction either includes multimedia elements within the phase of explanation, or the explanations are mostly presented in the verbal form only. Second, the questionnaire monitoring the instruction was applied to show students´ attitudes towards implementing the multimedia elements in the process. Despite the results did not prove significant differences in the test scores, students´ positive attitudes towards the multimedia elements were discovered, which contributes substantially to the motivation to learning, as minimum.
