摘要

In current events in the Czech Republic, an innovation of educational content is provided at all levels, which is intended to support the better development of IT thinking. Informatics will now be the content of all educational subjects; programming will then remain a separate subject. The parents react to this reform like schools, as well as institutions preparing future kindergarten teachers for the innovation of educational programs. In January – March 2021, we approached all students who obtained the qualification of kindergarten teacher at our faculty wheels in combined fields of study by asking whether and how they use robotic toys in their kindergarten. In this paper, it is presented the analysis and results of this investigation. Next, we will present an experiment carried out in January – June 2021, which was attended by children from kindergartens and their teachers. The experiment included a series of graded activities selected robotic toy (bee-boot, code- a-pillar, robotic mouse, etc.), which the teacher implemented and reflected on by the children. The analysis and results of the realization of the teacher ‘s reflections are presented. It is presented also the using it in the education of future teachers and other education of pedagogical workers.
