Abstract
To be able to apply all four types of knowledge conversion (socialization, internalization, externisation and combination) during formal education, for the purpose of developing appropriate attitudes, knowledge, skills, intuition, and creativity , it is necessary to have the work of students on real projects. Real projects, however, are never limited by boundaries of a single case. They often cover body of knowledge in various subjects, from different years of study, and even study programs. The real work is also very team, where each team member perform tasks in their domain of expertise. This implies that the project must participate with students of different subjects, majors, years of study and even different schools. To facilitate the coordination of such projects, special software was developed –as Web applications. Application itself provides a classic project management, and collaboration and cooperation of a number of teachers and students that can be spatially distant, as well as basic educational components-monitoring student achievement, their evaluation and self-evaluation, assistance in teamwork, and learning through trial and error method, analysis of the literature, brain-storming and team participation. In this paper, the possibilities of application are presented, a description of its use is given, and the importance and usefulness of the usage of such applications is discussed.
