Course objectives
The course draws attention to the importance of teacher professional development and outlines several basic tools for the professional development of the teacher, thus encouraging and motivating teachers to pursue lifelong learning. These tools of professional development can be used both for the development of competences related to teaching and therefore also to didactics of pedagogy, but also in other areas of the teaching profession. Each of the tools will be presented by experienced lecturers who have practical experience with dealing with the issue. Under the guidance of experienced lecturers, the tools of professional development will be presented in detail, and the course will also include practical training in the use of each of the teacher professional development tools.
Learning outcomes
Upon completion of the course, the student will be able to: a) evaluate the possibilities, effects and limits of professional development b) characterize individual basic tools of professional teacher development c) analyse their own teaching, critically assess the conclusions of this analysis and propose possible measures (d) effectively manage their own professional development e) evaluate the effectiveness of their own professional development
