Assoc. Prof. Ivana Pondelíková participated in a teaching mobility within the Erasmus+ programme at the University of Madeira in Funchal (Portugal), which took place from 3 to 10 May 2026. During the mobility, she was invited to deliver a lecture entitled From Barriers to Bridges through AI Driven Design Thinking, which was carried out as part of the international project VETAssIst – Artificial Intelligence as VET Teacher Assistant. The lecture focused on the use of artificial intelligence, design thinking, and innovative approaches in the education of Generation Z, and contributed to the exchange of professional experience as well as to the strengthening of international academic cooperation. The mobility also contributed to deepening cooperation with colleagues Jane Spinola and Elena Bollinger, during which possibilities for further joint scientific, educational, and international project activities were discussed.
