In the context of current technological development, its impact on the life of mankind and dramatic changes in society during the COVID-19 pandemic, the importance and its appropriate use in the education process has just arisen. The changes in education styles had to take place at all levels of the education system, including Higher education. Returning to the face-to-face form of education as it was before the pandemic is not possible anymore. Both students and teachers have discovered the wide options of technology used to further improve the educational process. However, in addition to the development of skills with the use of technology, it is necessary to develop other pedagogical skills and personal qualities of teachers, so that they can prepare their students for the continuously changing labor market.
