Using an educational TV series as an environment for teaching mathematics

Original language description

It has been over one year since the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic hit the Czech Republic. This has brought multiple restrictions in almost every aspect of human functioning. It was no different in the area of education, which had to switch to the online form of education at all types of schools. Many teachers and students lacked adequate technical equipment at that time necessary to synchronize online education, thus greatly limiting education under inadequate conditions. Czech Television responded quickly to this by broadcasting their own project called “TellyTeaching”, under special supervision by the Education Department. This project was primarily meant for children in grade school, but also opened up possibilities for wider application, which we used in the training of grade school teachers. The goal of this article is to look back on this experience using episodes of this educational TV series in the area of teaching math, including the students’ feedback based on a questionnaire survey. Fifty five students of the teaching mathematics in grade school program took part in this survey. The results suggest that prospective teachers assessed the possibility of teaching math to students aged 6-11 via television very positively, and that this form of TV education can be effectively used as model lessons within teacher training practice,which is also confirmed by the students’ positive feedback of the lessons in terms of applicability in their future profession.
