In this research we will get an insight into the achievements in mastering foreign languages for one specific student with difficulties. The student with disabilities, the foreign language teacher, the student's mother and the educational rehabilitator participated in the research. The teacher states the support of the inclusive secondary vocational school that the student attends and copes with all challenges. One of the methods used in teaching was mobile learning during the three-month online teaching period of pandemic situation caused by Covid-19. During this period Croatia was forced for the first time in history to implement online teaching. For the purpose of this study all of the students besides this student attended classes in the virtual classroom called Edmodo. Edmodo is the mobile application which is considered as a tool for mobile learning. Mobile learning means that students use their portable devices in order to learn. The interview, used as a method of data collection, was written by participants via email due to the required physical distancing. The materials were then transcribed and a quantitative data analysis was performed. Difficulties in the work of foreign language teachers have been identified, such as lack of experience, lack of teaching assistants as well as lack of additional teaching aids and specific materials and the specific teachers’ training for teaching in the contemporary inclusive school. At the end, the authors suggest guidelines for teachers in vocational schools in adopting new skills and competences in their teaching process in an inclusive school.

The development of technology over the last decade has fundamentally changed our daily lives, and consequently the methodological and didactic approach to the teaching process. The intensive development of information and communication technologies has introduced significant changes in the teaching processes in recent decades and focuses teaching methodology on issues of approaching e-learning and changes in teaching and learning to adapt teaching to the present requirements and opportunities. To satisfy the requirements of the contemporary school, culture can be interpreted as "historical creation (of the people) expressed through material and spiritual achievements, production, styles and ways of working – to put it simply a kind of wisdom of living" (Previšić, 2010, p. 170). This is exactly what the application of modern information and communication technologies offers for teaching and learning the English language as a foreign language. One of the important segments of the culture of the contemporary school is the teaching process, which must first of all be modern and innovative. The research aimed to examine the attitudes of the students of the vocational schools in Osijek-Baranja County towards information and communication technology in learning and teaching. The data were collected through a questionnaire and it was found that respondents are very positive about the use of information and communication technologies in learning and teaching, but they are also aware of some of the pitfalls that technology brings.

The paper analyses innovative learning and teaching through mobile learning on a sample of 96 adolescents. A 3-part questionnaire consisted of sociodemographic data, attitudes about mobile learning and media activities and the use of social networks. The research was done in 2019 with vocational school students. 15.1% of them use applications for learning English, while 92.5% use social networks in school work. Girls listen to music, take photos and use social networks significantly more often. Higher achievers are signifi[1]cantly more likely to read e-books, search for information in the media, and are generally more active on all media platforms except social networks. Girls use Snapchat and Instagram significantly more, while boys use Twitch. The use of mobile phones positively correlates with the attitude that it helps with learning, the belief that it can influence the improvement of language skills, and the de[1]sire for additional knowledge about mobile learning
