Sažetak
Interactive video and computer games , based on a digital computer technology, have been included into the children's playing repertoire as part of the contemporary children's culture. Children's early involvement in the world of computer and video games has been reasoned by the contemporary imperative to acquire media and computer literacy. The authors find it extremely important to gain insight into the child's perception of media, computer and game-playing environment, as well as the status of such contemporary games in the system of values and educational practice performed by teachers. Questionnaires have been designed to analyse preschool teachers' attitudes toward computer games and children's game-playing practice, as well as educational values and developmental potentials of such games. This has given a significant insight into their application to an adult educational practice. Moreover, preschoolers' interviews question their perception of computer games and game practice.
