Náměty pro diskuze o problémech vzdělávání (odkaz J. A. Komenského)

The legacy of Jan Amos Comenius can be understood as a continuously professional and social discussion on the issues of education and learning. The article presents the idea formulated by J. A. Comenius in the Great Didactics: “If a person is to become a man, he must be educated“. In his work called “The gate of unlocked languages”, Comenius postulated the thought of respecting the natural, physical, spiritual and social development of a human - a child, a student and an adult. In the work “Labyrinth of the World and Paradise of the Heart”, Comenius characterizes learning as „difficult and bitter entry into life“. The article focuses on confronting the ideas of J. A. Comenius with the current, turbulent, electronic and digitalised times. The context results in the need for more investigation in the area of the didactic process in schools and further education. The author introduces suggestions connected with the improvement of the teaching processes at elementary and secondary schools as well as at universities and in adult education.
