The teacher of this course will thematically connect the lectures of the foreign guests planned for the corresponding semester (e.g. trends in primary education abroad). He/She should help the students to tranfer newly acquired knowledge about foreign educational trends to the Czech context and the prior knowledge, but mainly to teach them how to use the information for innovation in education in the Czech Republic.
