e-mail: hana.maresova@upol.cz
Doc. PhDr. Hana Marešová, Ph.D., MBA, (b. 1972) graduated from the UP Faculty of Education in Olomouc and defended her Czech Language rigorous and doctoral dissertations at the UP Faculty of Arts. In 2013 she became a docent in Education at the UP Faculty of Education. In 2018 she received her Master of Business Administration degree from Cambridge Business School in Prague.
Since 1996 she has been employed at the Department of Czech Language and Literature at the UP Faculty of Education in Olomouc, where she is the guarantor of grammar courses and didactic courses specialising in the use of digital technologies in language education. She also leads the Centre for Innovation in Education at the Centre for Lifelong Education at the UP Faculty of Education, where she is engaged in research and utilisation of innovative methods and approaches in education (esp. digital technologies in education and supporting entrepreneurial spirit, creativity, and initiative in students). She also worked at the Department of Journalism at the UP Faculty of Arts, where she was the guarantor of the course New Media and Cyberculture.
In the years 2011–2016 she was a Vice-Dean for Student Affairs and Lifelong Education, then Vice-Dean for Organisation, Development and Lifelong Education at the UP Faculty of Education in Olomouc.
She is a member of professional associations and societies in the fields of pedagogy and education, such as the Czech Education Research Association, Czech Pedagogic Society, International Association for Research in L1 Education (ARLE; formerly International Association for the Improvement of Mother Tongue Education), Union of School Information Scientists, as well as a member of several work groups in charge of national and regional education policies, e.g. at the Czech Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports, in the Olomouc Region and City of Olomouc. She is a member of the board of directors of OK4Innovation and a member of the Czech Pedagogical Chamber.
She is the main investigator and co-investigator of more than 20 research or developmental projects (ESF, IGA, GAČR, FRVŠ, Grundtvig, Erasmus+, etc.), including international ones, esp. in collaboration with the United Kingdom. She is one of the evaluators of applications to the Czech Science Foundation (GAČR), the Fund for Development of Universities (FRVŠ), European Social Fund (ESF), and others.
Her research into linguistics was focussed mainly on the language of Czech enclaves abroad; her current work in didactics deals with the use of digital technologies in language education. In this area she also collaborated with the Czech Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports in order to prepare the State Information Policy in Education and the Strategies in Digital Education until 2020. Most recently she focuses mostly on the use of 3D virtual reality and its impact on educational processes; thus she also collaborates with the European Space Agency (ESA) on the educational project ESERO.

She regularly attends international conferences, e.g. in Oxford (UK), Salzburg and Linz (Austria), and Antalyi (Turkey).
She is married and has two children; her hobbies include sports (badminton, skiing) and music (playing the piano).
Her priority as Vice-Rector of Strategic Planning and Quality Control will be, apart from efficiency improvement in strategic planning, the implementation of quality control according to the EFQM Excellence Model. She perceives this task as a challenge for the improvement of UP’s excellence in all areas of its activity and for increasing the university’s ability to compete within Europe. The introduction of a complex quality system will be a tool for decision-making on the basis of concrete data analysis, which means management with respect to existing context, not only within university procedures, but also with respect to external factors, such as the current situation on the job market, and so forth. The change of approach on the basis of quality evaluation will be built, most of all, on the need to embed quality into everyday university operations.
