The textbook is a basic teaching tool for learning and teaching. With regard to digitization, there are changes in education. The use of communication and information technologies in teaching is becoming more and more common. Ways and methods of teaching as well as teaching resources and aids are adapted to today's times. Thus, there are also changes in the use of textbooks. Printed textbooks are no longer a sufficient source of knowledge, and multimedia textbooks are increasingly used in today's education. A multimedia textbook is a textbook in which teaching content is presented in different media. Most often they are in digital form. Their goal is to interest and motivate students for learning and enable them to acquire certain knowledge faster and easier. In this thesis, some of the digital multimedia textbooks from the Croatian language are described. Školska knjiga, Profil Klett and Alfa profil have the largest offer of digital multimedia textbooks in the Croatian language. The multimedia textbooks of these publishers are listed and described. Furthermore, the advantages and disadvantages of digital multimedia textbooks are highlighted. Digital multimedia textbooks can be created in programs designed for creating digital books. There are many such programs, and only some of them are described in this paper. In the practical part of the work, a multimedia manual intended for teachers was created. The manual describes programs for creating multimedia materials and books that can help teachers in creating them.
