Vol.24,No.5(2014)

Abstract

The study deals with comparative education as a subject of teaching at universities. It is aimed at questions not being discussed in the Czech environment. The main goal is to map the present state, and to identify problems of teaching comparative education at Czech universities, based on results of an empirical investigation performed among teachers of the subject. The first part of the study reflects trends in teaching comparative education at universities around the world, referring to international publications and projects. The second part is devoted to problems of teaching comparative education in the Czech environment. Firstly, a brief overview of specifics in the Czech environment is given. Next, results of empirical research mapping the state of teaching comparative education at Czech universities are introduced. The research process, construction of the questionnaire, and results of the research are presented. The concept, content of the subject of comparative education, and conditions of teaching are focused on. In the conclusion, the study points out potential that has not been utilized and formulates challenges for further discussion, as well as for investigation of teaching comparative education.
