	abstract = {In 2001, IST Advisory Group, as an advisory body of the European Commission in the field of information and communication technology, introduced four scenarios of the future development in information society forming an Ambient Intelligence (Ami) environment. This vision is a relatively new concept that is being developed at both theoretical and practical level. The problem is that although the concept of AmI has a strong technological orientation, there are also social, psychological, ethical or legislative dimensions that have to be taken in to consideration. Successful application of AmI requires entwining technological, managerial and other aspects to a complex soft system. In order to design and create appropriate architecture of this intelligent environment, which will match given requirements, it is necessary to acquire qualitative description of future stakeholders{\textquoteright} needs. One needs appropriate tools or techniques to be able to comprehend such complexity and people in general usually do not possess needed skills or tools. Therefore, the role of education is of a crucial importance here. The paper describes the AmI concept and outlines its relation with educational issues. Experience obtained while implementing of so-called learner-directed educational approach together with achieved findings and lessons learned are introduced. },

	abstract = {Digital television broadcasting has become a reality in most countries in the European Union (EU) as well as in other developed countries outside the EU. Interactive digital television (iDTV), as a relatively easy way to use technology, brings many challenges and opportunities into the field of education, i.e. formation and utilization of learning via TV, called t-learning. T-learning has many characteristics (i.e. technological or pedagogical aspects) that differentiate this type of education from other well elaborated approaches (e-learning, face-to-face learning, classroom learning, etc.). These characteristics include learners{\textquoteright} motivation, lean back interactivity, and combination of education and entertainment known as edutainment. The main attention is paid to interactive applications (iAV applications) that have to contain relevant study content and to be based on appropriate principles. Therefore, comparative analysis, analogy, generalization and other methods were used while studying different problems related to t-learning. The paper presents results and outcomes of the international scientific project Enhanced Learning Unlimited that were achieved in areas such as human-television interaction, learner-centered education or iAV applications development.},
