Dynamic development of digital technologies has been increasingly influencing all areas of our life. It is more and more difficult to find disciplines in which digital technologies have no application. New technologies have been also changing the face of education which has ceased to be something definite. Young people are especially attracted to latest technological developments. Therefore it is absurd to expect that next young generations will have positive attitude towards knowledge presented in a traditional way as they were born and have been living in the era of digital media. Are information technologies present in the project of a new core curriculum for primary school and to what extend? It is a crucial question because at present we deal with a dynamic process of transferring the young generation activities to the cyberspace. It is vital that pupils use the lates information technologies consciously and constructively and this is something they should be taught at school.
