Článek se zabývá pojetím praktické přípravy učitelů v souvislosti s připravovanou školskou reformou.

Řešení spatřuje v projektu tzv. klinického semestru, který je organizován jako multisciplinární blok teorie a souběžné probíhající blok školní praxe, vedené týmem odborníků z fakulty a učitelů škol praxe. V článku jsou uvedeny záměry semestru, jeho obsah i organizace.
