Výukové metody
presentations of instructor as well as students, group discourse, elaborating themes in small groups, literature study, role play, team projects Teaching and learning activities in more details: The course is taught in small groups of 14-20 people. The first block is maintained by the teacher and focuses on the introduction and opening the groups, active involvement of each member to participation, inducing discussion atmosphere, getting to know soft skills, theoretical and practical foundations of group work, active listening, and presentation skills. The goal is to prepare the group for teaching style, show examples of presentation and moderation techniques and introduce them to ' experience' style of teaching - teaching thus includes many activities, which are explained on the theoretical foundations and the students experience the situation and the roles, thinking about them and discuss them. The second and third block is then guided by small groups of 3-4 students to to prepare 3-4 hour presentations on a given topic from soft skills. The students are expected to thoroughly study the theoretical basis, prepare syllabi for the whole block, prepare appropriate activities and overall process its content. Students lead the entire block and learn from each other. Different presentation and moderation techniques are very widely used as well as variety of activities according to the 'experience' teaching style. After each block, a feedback from students is expected. Then everyone is actively involved in constructive evaluation and in space for improvements.

Students are expected to work in teams of about 3 persons to elaborate topics in a self-directed way and to prepare moderated units (lasting for about 2 hours each) and simple online materials for all participants.

The 100% attendance is required, unless stated otherwise (see information of each seminar group).
