The verification of educational objectives in the chemistry education of the Czech Republic

The research was focused on the teacher’s opinions about the key and critical points of the lower secondary chemistry curriculum in the Czech Republic. Through the interviews with 40 chemistry teachers from four Czech regions was gained information about what teachers named as critical topics and what as key topics in early chemistry school contents. Some problems were identified mainly with cognition overload of learners and the necessity to realize stronger connections to everyday life and forming science literacy. Keywords: chemistry teachers’ opinions, early chemistry education, key points of the curriculum, critical points of the curriculum.

Why don´t we encounter too regularly with the inclusion of educational software in chemistry education in the Czech Republic? What factors affect the usage of educational software? What kind of relationship can be identified between these factors? For the search of answers to those formulated questions was necessary to, first of all, carry out a deep analysis of the conditions that could lead to more effective usage of educational software in chemistry education. In this article, we analyse the factors that affect the usage of educational software in chemistry education with the application of the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) and the related theories, including a comparison of our results with the results of realized research studies with a similar theme. Key words: educational software, chemistry education, the unified theory of use and acceptance of technology (UTAUT).
