Purpose: The main aim of this article is to present the use of the Moodle educational platform in teaching Fundamentals of Materials Science and Metal Materials in the Institute of Engineering Materials and Biomaterials at Silesian University of Technology in Gliwice, and to analyse the efficacy of e-learning as the means of introducing education within a traditional model. Design/methodology/approach: This article contains the description of learning within the mixed mode, which is education embracing a face to face method and distance learning method for the first-year students. The comparison of the efficacy of mixed mode learning versus traditional learning will be presented. Findings: The efficient method of assisting remotely the e-learning students acquiring skills and knowledge at a varying pace has been developed, providing them with the personalised support. Research limitations/implications: Larger population of students should be tested so as to give measurable results, which would imply what needs to be worked on and what changes to introduce in order to improve the e-learning process. Originality/value: 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.

Purpose: The main aim of this article is to present the advantages and disadvantages of the use of blended learning in teaching Fundamentals of Materials Science and Metal Materials. The purpose of carried research is to analyse the effectiveness of e-learning as means of teaching in blended learning model. Design/methodology/approach: This article includes a description of blended learning; comparison of students' results in materials science between the traditional method and remote teaching using the Internet; dependencies between the effects of teaching and results of students' tests written using the platform. Findings: Students acquire different skills and knowledge varying pace with the personal support of the teacher. This method of assisting remotely the e-learning students has proved to be efficient. Research limitations/implications: Larger population of students should be tested so as to give measurable results, which would imply what needs to be worked on and what changes to introduce in order to improve the e-learning process. Originality/value: The document's research material confirms that e-learning makes it possible to use a new form of education which can connect the advantages of traditional learning and remote education in the field of materials science.

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.
