Teacher's information
The course is designed as the first part of a two-semester project to design and implement a full-day Development Center program. I therefore recommend you enroll in it if you are willing to devote additional time to the actual implementation of DC in the following semester. The course will require your active involvement, my role will be more of a consultant. If you are interested, I will be happy to grant you an enrollment exception and look forward to working with you :) Zuzana Slováčková
