- Mediation is one of the current trends in foreign language teaching and is considered one of the key competences of a foreign language user. In Europe, mediation tasks have been a fixed part of foreign language textbooks and curricula, including the final exam, for several years. In the Czech Republic, there has not yet been an "outbreak" of interest in this issue, which this seminar is intended to change.
