A multimedia support for the subject Material Science was created as the support of an educational process for students. It comprises videos of practical demonstrations of operation of various machines and measuring methods used at practical lessons. The videos are accompanied with word comments of the tea her, accompanying texts and needful graphical animations . It is a suitable didactic aid namely for students of a combined form of the study because of minimum direct teaching of these students nowadays. It is the only modern didactic aid at the Department of Material Science and Manufacturing Technology at present. The aim of the research was to ascertain interests of the students in e-learning supports within the subject Material Science by means of a questionnaire. The secondary aim was to judge a possibility to replace practical lessons only with a use of the multimedia e-learning supports. This aim was achieved based on a feedback of the users, i .e. the students, by means of the questionnaire distributed among the graduates of the subject Material Science. A reason was a detached look of the respondents at the investigated issue of the research. The survey showed that the students positively evaluated the practical les sons and work with sophisticated devices for their development. The students prefer an active involvement in their teaching during the practical lessons. This confirm ed the assumption that independent multimedia support is important for understanding the subject matter during practical lessons but it cannot replace the adequate practical lessons. On the other hand, a greater proportion of the students, i.e. approx. 60 to 75 use multimedia support to prepare for the practice lecture or exam.
