Abstract


Technological equipment in schools in Serbia enables a concept of teaching process different from the traditional one. It allows an application of Information - Communication Technology, ICT.Since there are a number of experimental classes in secondary schools, where a teacher has a great freedom in the choice of  teaching methods, forms and aids, there is a possibility to modernize the educational process by using computers.Previous knowledge of students in the field of computing enables the teachers to demand a very high standard, when using various application software and internet services.
Modern teaching focuses is on students. Teachers are expected not only to be demonstrators, but also to educate students to use software packages for mathematics such as Mathematica and GeoGebra and services such as WolframAlpha.Moodle platform at the school site allows distance learning. This is the latest  teaching form thus completing the entire teaching process.
In this paper, we provide an overview of how this works in the school "Nikola Tesla" in Ni\v{s}.
