Internet project "e-school, PHYSICS" is a part of a "e-school" project co-ordinated by the Croatian Society for Natural Sciences. The main objectives of the project is to create an educational material which will attract young pupils interested in physics and give them a chance to work on different project under a direct supervision of an experts from universities and research institutes. However, e-school PHYSICS targets a pupils with no special interest in physics trying to involve them in less demanding activities showing that physics is not a boring science. It is also one of the goals of the project to show how the modern technology is dependent on the fundamental research in physics and in addition in which ways physics is getting involved in the areas of everyday life (e.g.; finances). For above mentioned activities, more than forty scientists have already been involved in the project and much more are expected to join in.
