a1_This paper considers the influence of Enlightenment thinking on the pedagogical works of Jan Valerián Jirsík (1798-1883), who earned a place in Czech history as a priest, theologian, active patriot, education campaigner, pedagogue, writer and not least as the fourth Bishop of České Budějovice (Budweis), an office he held from 1851 until his death. Primarily, it draws on and follows up ideas in the writings of the theologian Ctirad Václav Pospíšil and the church historian Kamila Veverková, who both trace the links between Jirsík the theologist and thinkers associated with Bernard Bolzano. Jirsík’s early writings, however, are as much concerned with pedagogy as they are with theology, and the aim of this study is to discover whether his ideas on education were similarly influenced by Enlightenment thinking. It analyses his views on the subject before 1851, i.e. until he became Bishop of Budweis - specifically in the period 1826-1843, when he was much occupied with questions of education and upbringing. In his years as bishop he devoted little time to literary pursuits. The study concludes that the legacy of the Enlightenment era most certainly played an important part in Jirsík’s deliberations on education. There is, however, a certain progression discernible in his thinking. In the early period, of which Sunday School (1826) is a representative text, we see the influence of contemporary Enlightenment clerical pedagogy as he advocates extending human knowledge through reason in order to improve living conditions. Faith and religion are also factors here, especially in his emphasis on the positive role of God the Creator. In the second period under consideration (1836-43), we find closer parallels between Jirsík’s pedagogical and theological thinking., a2_Within ten years of writing Sunday School, his position had shifted from that of a priest attempting to expand or improve education in the spirit of Enlightenment ecclesiastical pedagogy to that of a theologian (and so-called ‘true’ enlightener) who from theological considerations drew conclusions for the educational process. In Jirsík’s view, Christianity and Enlightenment go hand in hand, serving to elevate human life spiritually as well as materially. For him education means the enlightenment of both soul and reason. Nor does he see any contradiction between faith and rationality. It is evident from his thinking that he was convinced of the need to implement the pedagogical ideal of the Enlightenment: to educate virtuous citizens who were also rational., Rudolf Svoboda., and Obsahuje bibliografické odkazy
Projekt Otevřená věda chce otevřít přímou cestu od středoškolských studentů a učitelů ke špičkovým vědeckým pracovištím, ať již na vysokých školách nebo v Akademii věd ČR.

V poslední době se stále rozšiřuje okruh osob, které užívají nebo brzy budou užívat GPS (Global Position System). Na tomto novém a atraktivním zařízení se uplatňuje mnoho fyzikálních poznatků či samotných základních principů fyziky. Je proto vhodné využít příležitosti a například žákům gymnázia ukázat, že "fyzika je na každém kroku“. V tomto příspěvku si všimneme pro mnohé překvapující souvislosti GPS a speciální i obecné teorie relativity. Níže uvedený text. který byl inspirován článkem [1], je určen spíše učitelům fyziky, kteří si ho pro svůj případný výklad upraví zejména s ohledem na fyzikální průpravu žáků., Aleš Trojánek., and Obsahuje seznam literatury
