Background With the widespread introduction of computers and Internet access, distance education becomes increasingly poluar and is accepted as a form of supplementing or replacing traditional teaching methods. Changes in education systems and socio-technological transformations have affected various areas of life, especially the education process. Development of information technology offering interactive software multimedia for education, obliges academic teachers to create courses provided through e-learning. One of the most important stages of e-learning involves developing educational materials, as the quality of prepared and presented content should be reflected in the students’ knowledge. Aim of the study The aim of the study is to present a way to create and use educational materials for e-learning methods of teaching.Materials and method The educational tool in the form of a "virtual case of a patient with bedsores" developed as part of teaching materials using e-learning is the result of the authors’ own conceptual work and a review of available scientific literature on the creation and practical use of distance education tools.Results The educational tool in the form of "a virtual case of a patient with bedsores" was prepared using the CASUS system for first-year students of nursing (full-time first-degree studies) as part of a lesson/course unit concerning the care and treatment of bedsores on the basis of content tailored to the requirements of the curriculum for Fundamentals of Nursing. The tool's content concerned the problems of nursing care provided to a patient runs the risk of bedsores and a patient who actually has such lesions. ConclusionsSolving the problems of a "virtual patient" running the risk of bedsores and a patient suffering from such lesions made it possible for the students to learn about daily practice; it also encouraged them to acquire knowledge. Most of the students were satisfied with that method of learning. It was an interesting supplement to traditional teaching.
