Abstract
Smart education in the smart learning environment belongs to the fields which are rather new; therefore, researches are highly required. In this article results of the research which focused of the process of learning within the smart learning environment are presented. The learning content acquired by the students includes selected English grammar phenomena. The main objective of the research is to find out how students learn in the smart learning environment. Research sample consisted of 61 part-time bachelor students of Faculty of Informatics and Management, University of Hradec Kralove, Czech Republic. Data were collected in three phases: (1) face-to face monitoring the entrance knowledge before the process of learning started by pre-test, (2) autonomous learning supported by teacher’s feedback in the smart environment and continuous testing by post-test1, (3) final face-to-face testing of acquired knowledge by post-test2. Results proved that the process of learning conducted in the smart learning environment brought some improvements, however, students had problems in application of advanced grammar phenomena in the active way.
