Abstract
The aim of the Lisbon Agenda for the countries of the European Union is to achieve the highest competence and to become knowledge-driven society by 2010.The goals defined this way are a variable because in some developed countries of EU15 they have already become the standard, for the others they are real perspective, whereas for some they are pure utopia. Education is considered to be one of the most important pillars to achieve this goal. The adjustment of education process has already started in Croatia. It calls for fundamental change in the process of thinking and shifting from classic “adaptive” models based on receiving information to more “creative” models of learning by improving the abilities to create better future. The obstacle in this course may be the parents and teachers, who in the era of digital gap have kept market and owner orientation, the characteristic of industrial society, thus becoming incompetent to solve the problems and create the future of their computer and network oriented children.
