To coordinate students’ individual work, the educational process use traditional textbooks, manuals of problem solving, electronic textbook and distant tutorials. Number of students, who use electronic textbooks and distant tutorials increased dramatically from 2005 to 2010, and at the same time, results on “Mathematics” subject were improved. The results of the research show the expediency of using traditional textbooks as well as electronic ones in the educational process.
