The project deals with classroom management strategies (CMS) of student teachers on their long term practice and CMS of experienced teachers (their mentors) in Czech lower secondary education (ISCED 2A ). The aim is to contribute to the concept of CMS on theoretical and empirical level and to support its possible applications. Partial aims are: (1) to contribute to the development of the concept of CMS in the Czech educational discourse as evidence based on Czech data. (2) To identify how CMS and their conceptualisation of student teachers (pre-service teachers) and experienced teachers (their mentors) differ. 3) To contribute to the theory and applications of mixed methods design. 4) To contribute to the implementation of findings into curricula and education of student teachers, teachers, and mentors in the context of teacher professional development phases. 5) To contribute with the findings to the ongoing discussion in the Czech educational policy about Teacher Quality Standard. 6) To publish a monograph dealing with classroom management in a complex way and in the Czech context.
