Abstract
The article deals with using of the video interaction guidance (VIG) in the education of 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 succesfull 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 a range of contexts. These investigations have shown that this approach improves the communication skills and self-esteem of student teachers, therefore enhancing effective learning and teaching and minimising negative contact, e.g. misunderstanding, inattention, conflict.
The student teachers have started fully enjoy the teaching, being energized by it.
