The use of ICT in teaching B/C/S languages and literature in primary schools of Sarajevo Canton: Between the possibilities and expectations

Technological developments have imposed far-reaching changes in the modern society. Thus many school systems seek its transformation in turning away from the traditional to new and 'modern' approaches in education in accordance with the needs of the time we live in. In Sarajevo Canton, there is an obvious tendency to increase the use of ICT in the teaching processes, which depends mostly on the teachers. By incorporating the ICT into the teaching processes, the preconditions for improving the overall education system are created. The conducted research is aimed at examining the levels of use of ICT in teaching B/C/S Languages and Literature (N = 24), in primary schools of the Sarajevo Canton. We looked at which multimedia resources are most frequently used by respondents. The research was conducted in June 2017 and it showed that there is a clear difference in school equipment, as well as the practice that certain teachers give priority to certain media versus others. Teachers with many years of teaching experience prefer to use the traditional methods and consider them irreplaceable. Thus we concluded that the usage of multimedia resources depends very much on teachers' readiness or unwillingness to accept and implement the new technologies.
