Abstract:
Implementation of information and communication technologies, as well as emersion of new user interfaces and web 2.0 technologies changes the way of education system, the way of living and business transactions in general. The way we communicate, operate, produce and live is changing.

In accordance with it, the systems of education change from traditional to modern. The following changes occur: from content delivery to knowledge production, from transfer of knowledge from teacher to student towards encouragement of development and construction of knowledge, from courses and programs changing to the adaptation of the study environment, from the faculty professionalism to the quality of teaching and student learning and the early involvement of students in research work and projects. These occurring changes also affect the student and professor mobility. Here the word “mobility” represents more than the student exchange programs and the easier transitions from one’s home university to a foreign one, but also the way professors conduct their classes. With the development of certain software, a student’s class attendance no longer represents an important factor, as they can now learn from distance using the mentioned software, taking the learning process one step further.

In order for said changes to occur, the use of e-learning and the development of new tools are almost mandatory. With this in mind the goal of this paper is to analyze quantitatively the changes that are occurring almost every day that affect the student’s learning and the professor’s teaching methods.
