Impact of the e-Schools Programme on the Use of the e-Class Register

The e-Schools Programme is an initiative of the Croatian Academic and Research Network - CARNET- to digitalize the Croatian primary and secondary education system, bridging the gap between traditional methods and modern digital solutions. Earlier solutions should have uniformly integrated digital technology in all schools in Croatia, often due to insufficient infrastructure and education of school staff. Lack of knowledge of new technologies limited digital solutions, such as the e-Class Register, the electronic class register for primary and secondary schools. The e-Schools Programme brought a comprehensive solution, offering not only the necessary equipment and infrastructure but also education and support for teachers in using new technologies, which directly impacted the increase in the use of the e-Class Register. The methodology used in this paper included a quantitative and qualitative analysis of the use of the e-Class Register, evaluating user satisfaction and the efficiency of administrative processes. The key results show a significant increase in using the e-Class Register, greater transparency, and organization in schools, highlighting the e-Schools Programme as a successful model for modernizing education.
