Course objectives
The students will get acquainted with various methods and forms of working with linguistic material and literary texts in the teaching of the Czech language and literature at primary school. They will try out various possible approaches to integrating all the components of the subject - language, communication and style education, literary education - into a functional, professionally correct, and methodologically well-thought-out whole lesson, which will respect the heterogeneity of the target student group. Emphasis is placed on the ability to reflect on simulated (directly implemented in the classroom) teaching lessons in a series of sequential feedback steps.
Learning outcomes
Learner: - acquire the ability to prepare for a lesson integrating all components of the subject, to choose appropriate methods and forms of work, to prepare all teaching materials: functionally selected text, worksheets, presentations, didactic games, including the use of appropriate applications, etc.; at their discretion and need, they differentiate these materials taking into account the (potential) heterogeneity of the team; - acquire the ability to perceive the learning processes in simulated situations from the perspective of the learners and the teachers; - enumerate and be able to apply the procedures of self-reflection and reflection, i.e. formulating feedback in a series of individual steps involving appreciation, clarification through questions, and recommending possible changes; - practise ways of communicating with each other (or with their pupils) in a substantive and supportive way, respecting the need for safety, i.e. actively creating a safe environment for all participants in the learning process.
Syllabus
  • 1. Comprehensive methodological preparation for the teaching unit (45 minutes), the relationship between objectives, content, and methods. Pedagogical communication in a heterogeneous team, the influence of specific needs of pupils on the teaching of Czech language and literature (specific cultural, linguistic, or other specific educational needs).
  • 2. Possibilities of integrating all three components of the subject Czech language and literature into a compact lesson fulfilling the expected outcomes (objectives) of all components. Functional interdependence of the curriculum and methodological procedures of all three components.
  • 3. Simulation of a teaching lesson and its reflection. Reflection led by one of the teachers - appreciation, recommendation.
  • 4. Simulation of a teaching lesson and its reflection. Reflection led by one of the teachers - valuing, recommending.
  • 5. Simulation of a teaching lesson and its reflection. Reflection led by the other teacher - appreciation, clarification, recommendation.
  • 6. Simulation of a teaching lesson and its reflection. Reflection led by the other teacher - valuing, clarifying, recommending.
  • 7. Simulation of a teaching lesson and its reflection. Reflection led by one of the learners.
  • 8. Simulation of a teaching lesson and its reflection. Reflection led by one of the learners.
  • 9. Simulation of a teaching lesson and its reflection. Reflection led by one of the learners.
  • 10. Simulation of a teaching lesson and its reflection. Reflection led by one of the learners.
  • 11. Simulation of a teaching lesson and its reflection. Reflection led by one of the learners.
  • 12. Final discussion and reflection on the new knowledge, experience, and skills gained in conducting the teaching lessons.
  • Reflective discussion in all its steps always involves the expression of the presenters (self-reflection), the learners in their role as learners, and the teachers of the course. The content of the reflective discussion is refined and graduated. Students gradually learn deeper reflective insights that justify and support arguments, offer solution options, etc. They deepen their ability to lead the discussion in a supportive and respectful safe environment, to think of suggestions as helpful, broadening their view of the learning situation, not critical. Emphasis is placed on developing formative assessment skills (taking into account the specifics of the learners).
