Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has necessitated further updates in lawmaking. In Section VI of the Law on Pre-school and School Education, concerning the possible forms of education, there is now a new text - article 115a (New - SG No. 82 of 2020), which indicates how to proceed in cases of extraordinary circumstances when the classroom educational process has to be suspended, namely: "...as far as and if possible, remotely in an electronic environment through the use of information and communication technologies".In the spring of 2020, there appeared to be significant gaps on the part of the various publishers and authors teams, whose commitment was to ensure that teachers could seamlessly work with the necessary volume of media resources to the already existing electronic versions of textbooks in various subjects. The lack of sufficient resources eventually led to the creation of different platforms with a rich base of supporting learning materials - the product of the extraordinary year-long work of many Bulgarian teachers, which resources still support the pedagogical specialists in distance learning in an electronic environment. The report observes the features, obstacles, as well as optimal solutions for distance learning in fine arts. An author's set of multimedia formats for teaching this subject in the primary school stage is presented and a comparison is made with the resources that other author teams have provided in the electronic versions of their books.
