Abstract
The role of an e-Facilitator in schools as a major ICT expert is presented below. The e-Facilitator should facilitate the access to electronic services and information space, support the virtual libraries, be an initiator and architect of social communication by forming communities involving all participants in the learning process – students, teachers, parents, and administration. The webinar is reviewed as a means of disseminating educational resources and presenting the methodology for using them. The activities of the e-Facilitator before, during, and after the completion of the webinar are also described. Typical errors that reduce webinar quality are discussed. Three webinars are illustrated to distribute STEAM resources from the Virtual Mathematics Laboratory, in which participants are given the opportunity to experience working with a part of the resources, and to share the results and emotions in a forum. In the webinars under consideration, some specific ideas and resources for the study of mathematics through the use of digital resources are merely highlighted, in other cases they are presented with a detailed demonstration of use, modification, and the students’ realizations of their use.
