Computer and information literacy in modern society is of great importance. The main intention in contemporary world is to start learning this kind of literacy from the earliest stages in education. In this master's thesis I want to reflect upon the process of informatization and its relation to computer and information literacy. The stress will especially be laid upon the process and lapse of informatization, as well as informatization in common use. Having made a research on this particular thesis, I can conclude that the process of informatization in the Republic of Croatia is in constant rise. The education itself became subject to excessive and neccesary changes. Instead of being arbitrary subject in higher classes of primary school, it became obligatory subject from the start of primary education. Even though new curricular reform brought many changes, the biggest emphasis is laid upon the process of informatization and establishment of computer science as the most important piece of further education. The earliest possible introduction of computer science and technology into education would allow the development of new, more interesting approaches towards learning. Regarding the fact this particular project is still being implemented into our educational system, its results are still only to be predicted. Moreover, particular attention in this thesis is brought to children with special needs or disabilities.
