The main aim of this article is to present the advantages and disadvantages of teaching Materials Science Subjects using blended learning, which was used in Fundamentals of Materials Science and Metal Materials. The purpose of the conducted research is to analyze the efficacy of e-learning as the means of introducing education within a traditional model. This article contains the description of learning within the mixed mode (mixed mode/ blended), comparison of the education results of Materials Science students using traditional method and distance education (via the Internet), and relation of students’ education effects to the results of the tests done by them on the platform. This paper will present results of the research on the influence of academic teachers and education effects in secondary school on achievements of students taught within those methods. The course presented in this article confirms that e-learning enables the introduction of the new education formula, which may embrace advantages of traditional teaching and distance education as far as Materials Science is concerned.
