Annotation
The excursion is planned in the range of 3 days (friday to sunday) to the site interesting not only from the biological-ecological point of view but also from in terms of possibilities to acquaint students with interactive field teaching of biology at primary and secondary schools. The benefit of a comprehensive excursion lies in the fact that it combines knowledge and skills from biological disciplines
(botany, zoology, ecology, etc.) with geological disciplines and last but not least with pedagogical- psychological, because the teacher during the excursion must also be able to work with a team of pupils and deal with possible problems that may arise from staying outside school. The excursion is designed as domestic and possible to realize it in any locality in the Czech Republic that meets the above requirements in the context of biological- ecological on the one hand, enhanced by methods of experiential education on the other (IBSE, project-based learning).
In the case of distance learning, the course will focus mainly on the quality of submitted tasks, which will be updated in the Google Classroom (through university mail).
