The method of instrumental awareness in children's homes

The following institutions are involved in the ongoing project: DD Horní Planá, DD at Kindergarten ZŠ and SŠ for the hearing impaired in České Budějovice, DD Písek and Salesian youth center České Budějovice. Psychologists, special pedagogues and educators participate in the project.
Lecturers who work with children and adolescents observe positive changes in communication in the school environment, especially in the collective of children's homes. They also record progress in coping with problem situations and emphasize the importance of an individual time approach to dealing with various stressful situations. Children show less impulsive behavior and think about their reactions to negative situations.
At the very beginning of working with children, the lecturers notice that the children are interested in working with the method and seem to be thinking about the given tasks. Psychologists and special educators see the first positive effects of the method in the children entrusted to their care. They believe the method will continue to benefit children and observe that their cognitive function is developing, supporting their ability to think and learn.
