Course objectives
The course is connected with professional and didactic subjects taught at the Department of Geography. The content follows the introductory questioning of students, in which they express their own expectations from the field and teaching in general. The identity of teachers is an individual process, and therefore the form of individual interviews is chosen here as well. These are focused primarily on (a) the course of study (difficulties and expectations), (b) personal priorities and challenges, and (c) self-development and the necessary material for self-development. Becoming a good geography teacher involves being aware of one's own growth and ideal, and we aim to teach students. Building the identity of a geography teacher is built primarily on mastering the field, the curriculum and the didactics. During their studies, students go through the field of geography, while at the same time meeting the stipulated expected outcomes in the curriculum that frame the field of geography and the didactic processing of the content, which clarifies or defines the geographical content. Linking these three areas creates three potentially conflicting situations that work in different ways and each student deals with them in their own way. The interviews are intended to help be aware of these situations and to take a proactive approach. The course targets the students of Geography with a focus on education from the 2nd year of bachelor´s degree.
Learning outcomes
An opening interview will take place as part of the course registration. However, a maximum of 2 interviews can take place in the bachelor's degree. The course is connected with an interview, which is part of the didactic course Didactics of Geography for bachelor studies in the 5th semester. One of the outcomes is a reflective diary structured into a portfolio, which students will use in the final state exam NMgr. to two areas: Topic 5 School management and possibilities to support the professional development of the teacher (Challenging life situations in the teacher's life. Psychological demands of teaching and how to manage them. Professional development of the teacher and its specifics. Burnout syndrome, possibilities of its prevention and solution (theory, legislation, school practice). Teacher's psychohygiene.) Topic 8 Teacher's and pupil's personality (Teacher's personality, their role, professional competences and development. Teacher's standard, professional ethics (eg Teacher's professional qualities framework). Educator as a reflective practitioner, models of reflection (ALACT). Class teacher.) Key benefits include: (a) regular interest in interviews, (b) awareness of one's own geographical expertise (what I excel at and what I don't), transformation of professional content according to the binding curriculum (what to teach and how to enforce it) and didactic possibilities, how to process content (what I learn in college and I cannot teach in primary school without change), (b) a proactive approach, which is defined by the fact that students come up with questions that they would like to solve or direct in them and that students they come up with alternatives for dealing with potential conflict situations
