On Thursday, March 6th we had a tandem lecture in our partner school Agricultural College and Agricultural Secondary School Benešov. Lenka and Anička gave a talk that could be called "Everything you wanted to know about ecological restoration but were afraid to ask, in 90 minutes". In addition to the theoretical ecological principles, the students also learned about practical examples of the use of ecological restoration. It was a whirlwind, but according to the results of the final informal quiz, it seems that the students learned something after all.
After a short break, the students listened to a summary of the legislation related to the protection and restoration of nature, especially in agricultural landscapes, this time presented by Katka Urbánková from PRO-BIO Union of Organic Farmers.

The Restoration Ecology Working Group participated again in the conference Two Days with Didactics of Biology held on 6 and 7 February in Prague. This conference focuses on selected problems of biology education and practical suggestions for teaching science and biology. Lenka gave a talk entitled "What is restoration ecology and how to teach about it" in front of about 70 teachers form primary and secondary schools and other professionals involved in teaching of science and biology. In addition to a brief introduction to the topic of ecological restoration, she introduced the TEAM#UP teaching materials that are currently under developement and their format, including a short preview of an educational video and an illustrative virtual tour of a selected demonstration site of ecological restoration, the Nature Monument Pískovna u Dračice. These materials are currently being pilot tested at our partner VET school Agricultural Collage and Agricultural Secondary School Benešov, and will be freely available on the TEAM#UP website during June this year. The contribution has been a success again and according to the feedback from teachers, it is clear that our work makes sense. We are pleased that we could take part in this inspiring event!
