In March 2015, Jitka Fišerová and Šárka Škodová performed a five-day study stay at the Oesede gymnasium (grammar school) in Georgsmarienhütte, Germany. Their stay at the secondary school, which has collaborated with Jiráskovo gymnasium as a partner and exchange institution for more than 20 years, was particularly focused on job-shadowing activities. Their aim was, above all, to acquire knowledge of the partner school’s organization of the educational process, use of new technologies for teaching purposes, management of school life, excursions or other extra-curricular activities as well as organization of the student exchanges. Besides the job-shadowing and inspection activities in the lessons of selected subjects followed by analytical interviews with the teachers, they got involved with events connected to a one-week school project named Management Information Game, organized by the school in cooperation with a local business and industrial body.
