Summary/Abstract: There is no doubt, that preparation of new teachers significantly influences many aspects of education. Most of us, readers of this Journal, are involved in preparation of new science teachers. My group focuses on physics teachers for secondary school level and this is the main perspective of this reflection. When we talk about physics teacher, we usually imagine formal education – education at schools with prescribed goals. Of course, many of us feel that we need well educated educators also for informal and unformal education – for science clubs, for preparation of good material for our children and teens for TV and web.
