Sažetak

School has always been perceived as an educational institution where students learn and acquire knowledge about basic human values. Education directed at the acquisition of knowledge often inaugurates seriousness and discipline in the learning process; however, teaching based on traditional pedagogical approach sometimes ignores the therapeutic role of laughter in the school area. We can perceive humor and laughter as a kind of alternative to the serious reality but humor is not just a simple means of relaxation and leisure. In its wide application, humor can find its place in the educational process as well. Scientists who have examined its functional efficiency agree that humor significantly affects the quality of the education process, enabling the improvement of intergenerational relations. In addition to establishing a supportive classroom atmosphere, use of humorous methodological instruments has potentially two‐fold benefits: it may facilitate teachers in the interpretation of educational content and make learning more interesting to students. The presentation seeks to shed light on the didactic possibilities of laughter in the school area, with particular attention dedicated to the humorous elements in the teaching of the Croatian language. The question is whether humor, a positive character trait, is ignored in teaching practice. With questioning of its functional efficiency the presentation reflects upon the possibilities of implementing humor in the teaching process. It also presents results of the research, conducted in the Karlovac and Primorsko‐Goranska Counties, dealing with students' and teachers' experiences of the efficiency of applying humor in teaching.
