| Description | Project teaching supports pupils' development of the key competencies as well as of specific outcomes of the educational sub-fields. To use the strengths of the educational project to the maximum extent, teachers must have a good understanding of it and gain experience with educational projects under expert guidance during their professional training. In the chapter, we introduce how the students of the field Primary school teacher training at the Faculty of Education at the Masaryk University are trained for project teaching and how they implement and mainly reflect their competencies in project teaching. The results of self-reflection of full-time study programme students are based on a quantitative questionnaire survey which focuses on the evaluation of knowledge, skills, attitudes and experiences of students in the final stages of their education, after the implementation of a teaching project in practice. The results show that in terms of their theoretical knowledge, students feel well equipped for the use of projects in their teaching, however, they find it difficult to apply some knowledge in practice, especially specific components of the diagnostic, intervention, psycho-didactic and didactic competence. Students find project planning and its implementation in practice a very rewarding experience. Within the self-reflection of the project realized, students also consider learners’ development of their key competencies within the framework of the project. If teachers are supposed to reflect and evaluate their learners’ competencies in practice, they have to be able to reflect and evaluate also their own competencies. |
