Popis: Using information and communication technology (ICT) is unavoidable in today’s learning and teaching process at all levels of education, and the use of Web 2.0 tools is the evidence of it. What makes Web 2.0 tools very appropriate for this purpose is its availability on any computer with an Internet connection, simplicity of use, ease of communication and participant’s interaction in education. The ease of communication drives students to use the tools even in their free time stimulating teamwork and creativity. Additionally, the tools are free of charge and may need only user registration and, in many cases, single computer per classroom is enough. To find out to what extent these tools are used in our educational institutions the research was conducted among teachers in the Republic of Croatia (RH) through an online survey. The research results show that majority of teachers use ICT in teaching, but mainly as Power Point presentations. The teachers use Web 2.0 tools several times a week, primarily for exchanging audio and video learning materials. In future, a lot of them plan to use Web 2.0 tools with the aim of encouraging students to increase their participation in educational process through interaction and exchange of educational materials.
