Sažetak
The idea of this research was to gain a direct insight of how children in primary school perceive a computer and usage of a computer according to emotional, cognitive and behavior aspects. There were 99 examinees participating the research, all of them pupils of primary school from 1st to 4th grade. Based on the answers to the survey, differences at perception and usage of the computer among these grades were examined. As the primary interest was to learn if there is a difference among the grades at specific aspects of attitudes and expectations in relation with a child and a computer, the significance of difference between the pairs of grades were not examined but the authors concluded which answer is the most frequent at a specific grade. The main results of this research indicate that there are no significant difference between different grades for the most asked questions. Most of the pupils from 1st to 4th grade perceive the use of the computer at the same way. It may mean that children relatively early gather first and stable attitudes towards the use of the computer. Based on all the answers, it can be concluded that children have positive but as well quite realistic attitude towards the use of the computer. The advantages and disadvantages as well as practical implications of this research are given with the possible directions for the future.
