Abstract

The main goal of our thesis was to prepare teaching materials to be used in primary and secondary school when teaching computing concepts. The tasks from Bebras Contest have been divided into eight categories, six of which belonged to the field of computer sciences. A review of the field on a level appropriate for teachers without a specific computer education was prepared. At the end of the thesis a vision for the future which would include a wider circle of people in the process of teaching computer sciences was presented. With their help teaching of computer use would be replaced with teaching of computer concepts to the children in primary in secondary school.
