Summary/Abstract: This article presents a longitudinal study on the applications of electronic textbooks in the educational process in primary school. The study was carried out between 2018 and 2021 using MS Forms. In 2018 a survey was completed by 158 respondents and in 2021 an extended version of the same survey was completed by 91 respondents, most of whom are primary school teachers. The survey aims to determine pedagogues’ attitude towards and opinion of electronic textbooks. The content of the questions targets the teachers’ opinion, assessment and attitude towards the topic. The questions are factual and subjective, and the responses range from multiple choice to open-ended. One of the questions requires a rating scale response. The first 22 items are identical in the 2018 and 2021 surveys. The latter survey also includes 4 additional questions regarding the use of electronic textbooks while teaching in an online learning environment. The empirical data, which has been gathered, has been systemized and reasonable conclusions have been drawn, which serve as the basis for accomplishing the key objective of the research.
