The paper presents the comparison of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) usage in Slovenian micro enterprises, using data derived from two studies carried out in years 1999 and 2009. Data for the studies were collected via structured interviews with owners or top managers of micro enterprises. We compared hardware and software equipment, business properties, characteristics of the interviewees and their impact on the successful use of ICT. The results show considerable changes in the ICT equipment, but that does not reflect in a better use of software compared to a decade ago. Key factors of successful use of ICT remain the same. The investment in ICT depends on owners' decisions and the most important factors are the owners' formal education and their skills and knowledge in ICT field. It was indicated that in recent years the investment of education in ICT field for both groups, owners and employees, was considerable lowered.

The digitization of education in Poland is spreading into more and more areas. Therefore, it becomes necessary to analyse all its aspects, both advantages and disadvantages. In the performed reflection, an attempt to present the current state of the access to computers, the Internet and e-course books in Polish schools has been made. On the basis of the secondary analysis of various recent studies as well as own research performed, it has been determined that the level of digitization of education in Poland is still not satisfactorily high. At the same time the author points to the announcement of its dynamic development within the next several years. Advantages and disadvantages of the use of Information and Communication Technology, in particular e-course books, in the education of children and young people were the axis for the reflection undertaken. Many arguments in favour of teaching based on modern methods and techniques have been presented; however, at the same time, a number of risks which this technology carries have been identified. It is hard to clearly be ‘in favour’ or ‘against’ this type of proposals. However, it seems that digital education will become a common reality in the next several years. Therefore, it is necessary to develop it so that it could bring the most benefits with the minimum of side effects. Only practice will probably show whether such a solution is possible.

The adoption of a new Learning Design methodology, especially when it is related to Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), by teachers in Cyprus is a challenge. This paper describes and evaluates the process of transferring such a Learning Design innovation, as developed by the UK Open University, to elementary and secondary education teachers in the Cyprus context. The paper also analyses the impact of such a Learning Design on teacher practice and considers barriers obstructing its uptake. Lastly, suggestions for future implementation are given in the conclusion.

W niniejszym artykule poruszona została tematyka zastosowania technologii informacyjno-komunikacyjnych w pracy z dziećmi ze specjalnymi potrzebami edukacyjnymi. Dzieci te powinny być objęte szczególną troską nie tylko ze strony rodziców i terapeutów, ale i całego systemu. Producenci sprzętu i oprogramowania dostrzegają potrzeby tych osób i z myślą o nich tworzą odpowiednie rozwiązania. Pierwsza część artykułu przedstawia rozważania teoretyczne nad tym, kim są osoby ze specjalnymi potrzebami edukacyjnymi. Natomiast druga część opisuje przykładowe rozwiązania technologiczne mogące być wykorzystane przez osoby ze specjalnymi potrzebami edukacyjnymi.

In this article the author discussed was the thoroughly of the use of ICT in working with children with special educational needs. These children should be given special care not only from parents and therapists, but the entire system. Hardware and software vendors recognize the needs of these people and think of them provide appropriate solutions. The first part of the article describes the theoretical considerations on who they are people with special educational needs. The second part describes examples of technologies that could be used by people with special educational needs.

Powszechna cyfryzacja sektora e-usług stanowi współcześnie podstawę rozwoju społecznego i gospodarczego. Rozwój e-administracji stanowi jeden z kluczowych czynników procesu budowy społeczeństwa informacyjnego. W artykule został przedstawiony poziom korzystania z e-usług administracji publicznej w Polsce i krajach UE-28. Analizie podlegały dane empiryczne GUS i Eurostat z lat 2008–2015. Skala korzystania z elektronicznego kanału kontaktów obywatel – urząd jest w Europie mocno zróżnicowana. Termin „społeczeństwo informacyjne” rozumiane jako powszechność korzystania zarówno z Internetu, jak i z e-usług administracji dotyczy takich krajów jak: Dania, Estonia, Norwegia, Finlandia i Holandia, gdzie odsetek osób korzystających z e-usług w 2015 r. wynosił 88% – 75%. Obywatele polscy w rankingach z tego obszaru aktywności wypadają zdecydowanie słabo, znajdując się na ostatnich lokatach.

Common digitization of the e-services sector currently represents the basis for social and economic development. The development of e-administration is one of the key components of the process of building an information society. The paper presents the level of using e-services of public administration in Poland and EU-28 countries. The analysis covers empirical data of the GUS and Eurostat from the years 2008–2015. The scale of using the electronic citizen – office contact channel is very diverse in Europe. The term ”information society” understood as the universal character of using both the Internet and e-services of administration refers to such countries as: Denmark, Estonia, Norway, Finland and the Netherlands where the percentage of people using e-services in 2015 amounted to 88%–75%. Polish citizens in rankings in this area of activity turn out to be definitely weak, placed at the last positions. The paper attempted to point out some objective factors that explain this state of affairs. It turned out that the low level of use is determined and depends on the age of Internet users, level of education, place of residence or income earned in the household. The most advanced in electronic administration services is the population of young people (aged 25-44) and people with a higher level of education. Also high income and inhabitancy in large cities represent determinants of a higher percentage of those using the Internet and e-administration services. Those digitally excluded from this area, one is trying to activate through digital programs implemented since 2001, including the latest ”Integrated State IT Implementation Program” adopted in 2016.

The article discusses the issues to take under consideration when dealing with information technology that may become threats. We draw special attention to the new threat of modern civilization, namely the cyberwar, as a hybrid form of war, and cyberterrorism. Poland, along with the progress of civilization and development of information management infrastructure is increasingly vulnerable to cyberattacks. Terrorist activity in cyberspace is particularly dangerous to people. The article was justified by the need to allocate adequate resources to combat this phenomenon. Attention was drawn to the fact that the era of information society and information systems can be both a weapon and a target.

Artykuł jest poświęcony problematyce spojrzenia na technologię informacyjną od strony zagrożeń. Szczególną uwagę pragniemy zwrócić na nowe zagrożenia współczesnej cywilizacji, jakimi są cyberwojny i cyberterroryzm. W opracowaniu przedstawiono formy wojny hybrydowej. Jedną z nich jest cyberwojna. Polska wraz z postępem cywilizacyjnym i rozwojem informatycznej infrastruktury zarządzania jest coraz bardziej narażona na ataki w cyberprzestrzeni. Szczególnie niebezpieczna dla społeczeństwa jest działalność terrorystyczna w cyberprzestrzeni. W pracy uzasadniono konieczność przeznaczenia odpowiednich środków na walkę z tym zjawiskiem. Zwrócono też uwagę na fakt, że w erze społeczeństwa informacyjnego systemy informacyjne mogą być zarówno bronią, jak i celem ataku.
