Sažetak
It is necessary to introduce a new methodical approach to the teaching of mathematics at the faculties of technology which needs to be directed towards mathematical modelling of real problems appearing in technology and economy. This approach to the teaching of mathematics has for years now been successfully implemented in the higher education system in the United States of America. This paper describes the way to link the content of mathematics courses with the content of courses within graphic technology. The described approach could also be successfully implemented in all other faculties of technology. This would contribute to raising the level of mathematics education and students would, after graduation, be better trained to apply mathematical knowledge in practice. The new way of educating would raise the level of mathematical competences of students and would make them more competitive at the increasingly more demanding labour market.
