Teaching is an important element of the activity of a university. Being linked with research activity, it is the foundation of the academic community. The practice of science has a strong influence on the quality of teaching and, of course, good teaching should benefit from research. Research activity related to teaching also gains significantly. As far as possible, both types of academic activity should reinforce each other. In order for academic teaching to be considered good, it is necessary not only to know specific techniques, tools and methods of teaching, but above all, to constantly and consciously reflect on the goals and outcomes of education. It requires a constant effort to use the knowledge of how people learn and apply teaching principles based on good research to achieve the goals. The overall aim of the course will be:

- awakening and improving the teachers' reflection in close connection with the didactic and research practice of the participants,
- shaping the skills and attitudes conducive to the development of competences of an academic teacher who cares about his individual development, and at the same time is able to interact with other academic teachers.
