The contemporary teaching process increasingly attaches importance to the teaching media, which represent the didactically shaped original reality. The question of choosing appropriate teaching media in the process of education is important for the daily organization of teaching and learning of pupils with the acceptance of technical resources. A survey among teachers, in eight elementary schools in the city of Rijeka and Ogulin, which teaches pupils of younger age, identified the diversity and frequency of use of teaching media in the preparation of educational work and immediate work with students. Given the characteristics of particular media and the factors that determine the choice from the didactic point of view, the link between the selected teaching media and the teaching of the educational subjects has been made, as well as the attitudes of teachers on the advantages and disadvantages of using computer technology. Research has shown that teaching media is frequently used by teachers, both in the context of preparing work for teaching and in work with pupils. The variety of use of teaching media is numerous, but a significant number of respondents state that their classrooms are insufficiently equipped. Furthermore, the results point to the fact that computer technology is largely implemented in work with pupils, but the students themselves are also involved in the use of the same. By pointing out positive and negative characteristics, we have come to the knowledge of the reasons for using computer media in teaching.
