Summary/Abstract: The role of infocommunication devices in non-school activities is increasing and children sitting at school desks should be prepared by education to use technology and navigate in a technology-driven world (Burgeois et al. 2019). Gamification, including so-called serious games, can be one solution to the problem, but without a change in approach and methodology, they will not become a panacea. Mobile devices, for example, would perfectly support cooperative learning and personalised tasks, but teachers use them mostly for giving homework and tests and do not exploit any more possibilities (Molnár et al. 2020). In the following, the paper will review the changes in the learning environment, students’ and teachers’ roles, and will also intend to shed light on which areas are the shortcomings that hinder the wider use of ICT in schools.
