Sažetak
There are various elements in designing e-teaching materials that could have an impact in
raising the efficiency of e-learning. This paper is based on the experiments aiming to
investigate whether there are certain positions on the monitor in which students are able to
better perceive and/or remember e-teaching materials. Our research was carried out at the Juraj
Dobrila University of Pula. Participants were first year students attending the teacher
education programme (aged 19.5 – 20.5). The research design included two pre-experimental
groups and one experimental group. The monitor was virtually divided into 24 zones. Students
read the teaching material displayed on the screen; in each reading four texts in different
positions were used. The relative ease/difficulty of remembering the text was taken into
account by introducing different ponders to each text. Regarding the memory efficiency, our
results show statistically significant differences between certain screen positions (these
differences ranged from +29.6% to -42.6% from the average result).
