摘要:AbstractIncreasing application of inquiry-based education, as one of the pupil activating methods, is no doubt one of the most significant tendencies in current attempts at education improvement across education fields at elementary and secondary schools. As the process of teaching itself and problem situation solving are becoming more important nowadays (Framework Educational Programe for Basic Education, 2007), the role of the teacher, especially his knowledge and skills, is becoming more important as well. This article introduces the initial part of the project dealing with the detailed elaboration of the link of teacher's ICT competence in the 21st century within the innovated approach to education–inquiry-based education. Authors discuss the questions of ICT competence in constructivist education and the development of the structure of the competence in modern conception divided into three sub dimensions. Further attention is paid to the identification of these areas.
