Pjanic, Karmelita; Hamzabegovic, Jasna – Practice and Theory in Systems of Education, 2016
In the era of information technology and general digitization of society, invasion of every kind of software is evident. No matter how laudable is the existence and development of educational software, taking into account its role, its quality and whether it achieves the desired goal is very important. In addition to programming experts it is…
