Welcome to the web pages of the newly established journal of the Faculty of Education of Charles University.

The Literacy, Preliteracy and Education Journal is a peer-reviewed journal which specializes in the field of literacy and education in their broadest terms. Its goal is to mediate new knowledge in the field and thus to provide impulses that will stimulate further development in the field, and to strengthen the link between research and praxis. The Journal deals with reading, mathematical, informational and science literacy and pre-literacy and with related topics. It also serves as a basis for the development of educational psychology, primary pedagogy and departmental didactics, and special and social pedagogy as research subjects.

The Journal is published three times a year (in April, August and December); the two main languages of the journal are Czech and Slovak. One English issue of the Journal is published each year.

The third issue of the eighth volume of the journal Literacy, Preliteracy, and Education focuses on the topic of music literacy and its significance for cognitive, emotional, and social development. This issue presents interdisciplinary approaches to music education, including the connection between neuroscience research and music pedagogy, the development of pedagogical competencies for music teachers, and the exploration of the role of movement in music education and choral singing. Contributors also discuss the importance of singing in music education for the development of children's communication skills.

Additionally, the issue includes reports from international conferences that focus on choral art, music education research, and practice. There is also a review of a publication on creativity in music education, highlighting its importance and practical applications in pedagogical methods. This issue offers valuable insights not only for music educators but also for the broader professional community.
