Abstract:
The article is aimed on possibilities of development of cognitive processes using computer or mobile devices not only in students.
The study analyzes available mobile applications and computer software, which in combination with suitably designed tasks and activities can positively develop certain cognitive processes.

The article also includes suggestions of tasks and activities suitable for specific use in combination with various modern technological procedures. It focuses on cognitive processes such as: perception, memory, attention, creativity and imagination. These can be developed using non-commercial or commercial games, puzzles, software, or today, especially among young people, very popular mobile applications that are a trend in mobile education (m-learning). The advantages and disadvantages of mobile devices compared to a personal computer equipped with expansion peripherals are also mentioned.

The article is follow-up of the previous contribution of the authors entitled "Tasks for the Development of 3D Imagination and Creativity through 3D Graphics" "3D Graphics in Education".
