Abstract

The article deals with using of the video interaction guidance (VIG) in the education of the teachers to support their professional development - above all in the area of social skills. The VIG is primarily focused on communication.

Nevertheless, with the increase of the amount of teachers-students successful interactions, the efficiency of the whole teaching process grows. A quantitative research and an illustrative case-study are presented.

Results of the research suggest that the positive video feedback provides a valuable opportunity for personal, professional and social development for both teachers and pupils across the range of contexts. These investigations have shown that the VIG improves the communication skills and self-esteem of student teachers, therefore enhances effective learning and teaching and minimises negative contact, e.g. misunderstanding, inattention or conflict.

The student teachers have started fully enjoy the teaching, being energized by it.
