Abstract
Preparing hypermedia didactic programs on the basis of the most modern solutions in the scope of information technology allows to create certain portions of information in form of multimedia messages depending upon the character and aim of the message. Moreover, the use of hypertext allows to combine particular modules in (major or minor) program blocks in such a way that it is not noticeable by a student to show their individual way of learning, what is significant for didactic metaprogramming. Despite the fact that it is, to some extent, algorithmisation of the didactic process, there is no dehumanising automation of the didactic system by replacing a teacher with a machine or program but it is about facilitating its aspects in which such form of education is needed and which is compliant with the current way of learning in the student environment. Today, there is a necessity of didactic metaprogramming giving the possibility not only for multimedia presentation of the education content but also the interactive work of the student - allowing to be beyond the delivered information – use the considerable achievements of didactic programming in connection with dynamically developing information and communication technologies needed for teaching and learning at school and for the whole life.
