Václav TVARŮŽKA
Journal of Technology and Information Education 2009, 1(2):5-12 | DOI: 10.5507/jtie.2009.028 
This article is about experience from measurement of changes of conceptual and procedural knowledge during education with use of the one minute´s visual clip. Digital visual records - mainly digital visual clips - are phenomenon that involve interpersonal communication very much at present. This new extension brings varionus questions and effects also into the conditions of school education that is necessary to describe and check. Communication by the picture is a basic part of education of technologies and at this story we want to describe how digital visual clip is effective for education.

EMPIRICAL RESEARCH OF INFLUENCING STUDENTS´ ATTITUDES TOWARDS TEACHING SUBJECTS BY MULTIMEDIA TEACHING MATERIALS
Ján ZÁHOREC, Alena HAŠKOVÁ
Journal of Technology and Information Education 2009, 1(2):69-76 | DOI: 10.5507/jtie.2009.038
The contribution follows the authors' article published in the previous JTIE issue (Záhorec - Hašková, JTIE, 1/2009, s. 83 - 91). Following the empirically derived hierarchy of subjects identifying degrees of particular teaching subjects popularity among grammar school students, and influence of various factors on students' attitude toward these subjects the authors explored possibilities to eliminate students' negative attitudes and approaches to so-called unfavourite ones, which just natural science and technical disciplines belong to. In the concrete they focused on physics, which was identified as the least favourite subject. In this paper the...

LEAKAGE CURRENTS AND POWER LOSSES ON OUTDOOR INSULATORS UNDER ARTIFICIAL RAINS
Ladislav RUDOLF
Journal of Technology and Information Education 2009, 1(2):100-108 | DOI: 10.5507/jtie.2009.046
The paper is about the theory of creation of leakage currents on insulator suspensions at the lead of the transmission network system. In practice insulators are exposed to weather impacts that are during the year various and they influence conductive conditions at the surface of the insulators. The result is a flow of leakage currents on the surface of the insulator suspensions to the construction of the towers against the ground. On the base of entrance data from the control system CEPS in Ostrava and measurement values form the lab VVN in Prague-Bechovice, in system there are introduced calculations and results. They show the influence of temperature...
