Sažetak

Theoretical backgrounds for development of a university model of integrated methodical practicum (Methodics of introducing children to the natural and social environment, and Methodics of mathematical concepts formation) are learning about the holistic approach to the education of young children, as well as the pedagogical paradigm of an open preschool curricula and its co-construction. Through an analysis of data collected during this cycle within the framework of mix-method research, the paper is presented as the reflection on implementation of the integrated methodical practicum. Quantitative data indicate a shift of students' insights into their own methodical competences towards to a greater objectivity, and in a sense, restructuring of their theoretical knowledge. Qualitative analysis indicates a shift from the emotional components (especially, uncertainty and fear) by which the students were overwhelmed at the beginning of the cycle, to a greater confidence in their relationships with young children. Integration contributes to a number of positive effects on the development of general and specific methodical competence as well as on the students’ self-confidence. On the other side, it opens up new questions that need to be taken into account: primarily it refers to the issue of the gap in "connecting" theory with / and practice, and equally, to the possibilities of students’ participation in decision-making within process in the next cycle of the action research.
