Sažetak
Since the emergence of the new technologies and increase of their availability to students, teachers marked them as enemies. Especially mobile phones have become a threat to the teaching process, because students in classrooms most often used them as a tool that caused distraction, both of teachers and students. However, in the course of last years, teaching practice in the Western world has began to question the purpose of using mobile devices and concluded that they can be used as a positive learning tool. Nowadays we are witnesses of a continuously growing number of applications produced specifically for the inclusion in the educational process. On the one side, such applications help students to accept the teaching material more easily, in the way they find interesting and suitable, while on the other they can be used by teachers to transfer knowledge and enrol students in different tasks in faster, easier, and more interesting way. This paper will show how mobile phones can be included in teaching process, then it will examine the purpose of technology itself, and offer suggestions to teachers how to prepare for such a 21st century class, using the examples of teaching philosophy, ethics, and literature.
