Abstract

V originále

With regard to the recent trends in the Higher Education sector there has been a marked increase of student attendance in the lectures. The universities inevitably respond to this trend and address the negative aspects of the teaching of large groups. Apart from psychological aspects, such as the feelings of isolation and powerlessness, there are crucial problems in communication and class management. The universities try to mitigate such negative aspects by a use of modern communication technologies (Facebook, online student support), which attempt to make the teaching student centred. Nevertheless, an effective teaching of large groups remains a problem for the future.
