Abstract
In the course of this master’s thesis, digital study material was created for the secondary school level, together with supporting material for teachers, which explains the different parts of a classic desktop computer. The textbook was divided into seven topics. For each topic, a computer introductory material was prepared by the author of the master’s thesis. In addition, various tasks were designed for some topics. For the development of digital teaching materials website was created, which included videos, tests and teacher’s materials compiled by the author of the master’s thesis. The development of digital learning materials was supported by the ADDIE model. During the last stage of the model, experts were also involved through the publication of the study material and in the feedback questionnaire. The answers to the questionnaire were analyzed together with the feedback. Based on the experts’ assessments and feedback, it can be concluded that the created digital learning material has simple and clear videos, the color scheme is eye-friendly but the sound quality should be improved. The clarity and simplicity of the videos were rated the highest. In the last part of the master’s thesis, the author of the master's thesis analyzed the design process, limitations and introduced further plans for the creation of digital study material. Further plans would include creating videos on new topics, improving teacher materials, and developing new tests.
