Summary/Abstract: Due to dynamic development of e-learning tools, which are available on the commercial and non-commercial market, e-learning is today a common and valued form of supporting the learning process. To achieve some cognitive objectives, for example to visualize the structures or patterns, it is very effective to use techniques like interactive presentations. A particularly useful function of the presentation enforcing student's interest is the Hot Spot. This activity is available within a non-commercial tool environment - Xerte. The present publication focuses on the benefits and educational opportunities of this environment. In particular, the authors share their experiences of the Hot Spot activity creation in three different variants. The publication describes, in a comprehensive and detailed way, the creation of Hotspots, saving presentations in SCORM format as well publishing presentations on e-learning platform Moodle.
