Interactive e-learning materials: How to prepare and use it properly?

During last decade the advances in the computer science and web technology have changed the perception of the ideal e-learning material. New learning material must be interactive and actively involve students into the learning process. The idea is generally good but the implementation sometimes falls behind. During the analysis of the e-learning materials that are publically available we discovered that everything is prepared in “mouse click” fashion. This has led us to believe that we need to make a break and perform a mental rethink what we actually want. We definitely do not want our children to think that learning is just clicking the mouse. In our article we want to explain how to involve students into the learning process. What are the right ways to use interactive technologies? How much should we automate and where should we stop? It is said that students rapidly lose dexterity and understanding of the text in the manual.
