Aim: The text focuses on the differences between male and female homelessness in the Czech Republic. Homeless men exhibit different characteristics in some respects compared to homeless women, and the above also applies to their chosen strategies of action in the context of living on the streets. Firstly, the known facts concerning the observed differences are presented in this paper in order to subsequently identify them in the statements of individual respondents. Methods: The data are collected through semi-structured interviews with homeless men. A total of 7 male respondents were contacted, and additionally 2 homeless women to illustrate the topic under study. Results: Attention was focused on the reasons that led to the interviewees becoming homeless, as well as on practices related to living on the streets and finally on possible barriers that prevent them from returning to the centre of society. Conclusions: The text is intended to lead to an understanding of the perspectives of homeless men that may be a barrier to help from society. At the end of the text, several recommendations are put forward which could help in the process of providing assistance.

It seeks to encourage and help teachers to develop the educational area of emotional and social skills by presenting specific titles from which to draw, thus entering the world of emotions.
Artykuł analizuje znaczenie dialogu introspektywnego dla rozwoju wiedzy refleksyjnej w zawodzie nauczyciela. Badanie miało charakter jakościowy i składało się z dwóch etapów: w pierwszym respondenci tworzyli zapisy introspektywne dotyczące swojej praktyki zawodowej, które posłużyły jako podstawa do dalszego badania – pogłębionych wywiadów. Analiza wywiadów wykazała, w jaki sposób interakcje interpersonalne przyczyniają się do kształtowania wiedzy doświadczeniowej i refleksyjnego wglądu. Podstawy teoretyczne badania opierają się na koncepcjach uczenia się przez doświadczenie, sociality oraz roli wewnętrznego dialogu w procesie zawodowego samopoznania i orientacji. Wyniki pokazują, że dialog introspektywny sprzyja głębszemu postrzeganiu relacyjnych aspektów praktyki zawodowej, wzmacnia zdolność do dzielenia się wiedzą doświadczeniową oraz podnosi jakość współpracy zespołowej. Autorki postulują systematyczne wdrażanie technik refleksyjnych do praktyki edukacyjnej.

The authors analyze the role of introspective dialogue in the development of reflexive knowledge within the teaching profession. The study employed a qualitative research design consisting of two phases: in the first, participants produced introspective records of their professional interactions, which served as the basis for the second phase-semi-structured in-depth interviews. The analysis of these interviews revealed how interpersonal interaction contributes to the formation of experiential knowledge and reflexive insight. The study is theoretically grounded in concepts of experiential learning, sociality, and the function of internal dialogue in professional self-understanding and orientation. The findings show that introspective dialogue supports a deeper awareness of relational aspects in professional practice, enhances the ability to share and integrate experiential knowledge, and improves the quality of team collaboration. The authors advocate for the systematic implementation of reflective techniques in educational practice.
