The university textbooks entitled Global Navigation Satellite Systems: GPS, GLONAS, Galileo, Compass present four navigation systems of the GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite Systems): American NAVSTAR GPS, Russian GLONASS, European Galileo and Chinese Compass. The Satellite-Based Augmentation Systems (SBAS) are also briefly explained. They provide regional service in augmenting the reach and support of signals from satellites of the GNSS (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, Compass). Each satellite navigation system in the frame of GNSS is elucidated in terms of its principles of operation, structure, specificities, applications, and future perspectives.

The university textbook aims to improve the reader’s understanding of the principles and activities of the presented GNSS. The book emphasizes the possibilities of GNSS applications in geodesy and geography. The university textbook constitutes the basic study literature for the class Global Navigation Satellite Systems within the study program Geography and Geoinformatics at the Faculty of Science of the Pavol Jozef Šafárik University in Košice. For a deeper study of the GNSS issue, it is necessary to extend the study materials to include other educational scientific literature dealing with navigation satellite systems and their applications.

Tento vysokoškolský učebný text je určený študentom chemických a ekologických odborov na Prírodovedeckej fakulte Univerzity P. J. Šafárika v Košiciach a má poslúžiť ako pomôcka pre experimentálne cvičenie z koloidnej chémie. Koloidná chémia je významnou súčasťou teoretického základu chemických vied, patrí medzi novšie interdisciplinárne odbory prírodných vied. Spája poznatky z oblasti fyzikálnej chémie, fyziky a biológie, pričom využíva aj solídne znalosti z matematiky a ďalších vedných odborov. Pri pochopení problémov koloidnej chémie sú často nevyhnutné aj experimenty, ktoré modelujú predstavy o priebehu javov a zákonitostí, ktorými sa tento vedný odbor zaoberá. Preto je pre zvládnutie učebnej látky z koloidnej chémie také dôležité a podstatné aktívne absolvovanie experimentálneho cvičenia. Pri výbere úloh pre tieto skriptá bolo treba rešpektovať aj značné obmedzenia dané možnosťami laboratórne prístrojového a materiálového vybavenia nášho pracoviska. Napriek tomuto obmedzeniu však môžu študentom ilustrovať základné teoretické fyzikálno-chemické princípy koloidne disperzných sústav, a čo je dôležité – ich pochopenie môže prispieť k porozumeniu niektorých dôležitejších zvláštností koloidných javov.

Súčasná výučba chémie má svoje špecifické problémy. Na jednej strane sa v dôsledku posunutia ťažiska učiva chémie v prospech učiva teoretického, zvýšila náročnosť učiva chémie a v súvislosti s tým, sa znížil záujem žiakov o chémiu. Nezáujem žiakov o chémiu je najviac podporovaný názorom, že je to práve chémia, ktorá výrazne prispieva k zhoršovaniu kvality životného prostredia. Na druhej strane žijeme v dobe, keď sa s produktami chémie stretávame prakticky všade. Nutné je spoznať základy chémie čo najlepšie, preto je otázka zvýšenia záujmu o výučbu chémie a zvýšenia jej účinnosti veľmi aktuálna.
Do slovenských škôl vstúpili štátne vzdelávacie programy ako základ pre tvorbu školských vzdelávacích programov. Tu je kladený dôraz nielen na získavanie určitej sumy znalostí, ale na vytváranie a rozvíjanie kľúčových a špecifických kompetencií žiakov, na ich prípravu pre celoživotné vzdelávanie a uplatnenie sa v živote. Preto je stále väčšia pozornosť venovaná jednému zo základných didaktických prostriedkov pre zvýšenie aktivity žiakov vo výučbe, a tým aj zvýšenie efektívnosti výučby chémie – učebným úlohám.
Z teórie aj z praxe výučby chémie vieme, že učebné úlohy, otázky, príklady, cvičenia atď., sú jednými z dôležitých súčastí každej vyučovacej hodiny. Učebné úlohy sa uplatňujú vo všetkých fázach výučby – vo fáze motivačnej, vo fáze osvojovania učiva, vo fáze upevňovania učiva a vo fáze kontroly osvojeného učiva. Je teda zrejmé, že každý učiteľ sa ocitne skôr či neskôr v situácii, keď bude musieť učebné úlohy vyberať z učebníc, pracovných zošitov, zbierok a príkladov, alebo ich tvoriť sám.
Vedecká monografia je určená pedagogickým odborníkom i učiteľom chémie, ktorá ich má zoznámiť s ukážkami rôznych typov a foriem učebných úloh a so základmi ich tvorby v chémii a môže byť pre nich nápomocná pri tvorbe atestačných prác zameraných na tvorbu testov a ich štatistické vyhodnotenie.

College scripts Programming in Python 1 are intended for future teachers of computer science. The content of the course is related to the teaching of programming in Scratch and is an introduction to text-based programming in Python.

Programming is introduced as a means of developing problem-solving skills. The first chapter is devoted to problem solving. The next 12 chapters sequentially introduce basic language constructions, data structures, and selected types of algorithms. Each of these chapters begins with an introduction to the problem. This section is primarily intended for self-study, to prepare students for the exercises. The following subchapter summarizes and completes the knowledge, and additional insights and approaches related to the chapter topic are presented. The chapters include a collection of exercises designed to practice and deepen knowledge and skills on the topic.

The final part of the chapter presents the solved problems. This section serves as a guide to solving the problems in the collection.

The university textbooks "Practical Exercises in Physical Chemistry" are intended as teaching literature for students of the 2nd year of the Chemistry study program and the 3rd year of the interdisciplinary study program at the Faculty of Science of the Pavel Jozef Šafárik University in Košice.

The three chapters summarize the basic knowledge of thermodynamics, electrochemistry and kinetics, the next chapter deals with the measurement of some other physico-chemical quantities. The tasks developed on the basis of cooperation with the Criminalistics and Expertise Institute of the Police in Košice, which also participates in the innovation of practical teaching, are also very attractive and interesting for students. Thematic units are updated and supplemented by new knowledge, principles as well as detailed working procedures using new instrumentation.

The aim of laboratory exercises in physical chemistry is to illustrate and confirm the physicochemical laws and correlations that apply to the quantitative description of chemical phenomena. Students will learn to use instruments and equipment that occur in physico-chemical laboratories, they will learn the principles of accurate and correct quantitative measurement of physical quantities, important from a chemical point of view. They can also develop professional and scientific communication skills, and we want to support their creative approach to making measurement protocols.

Bats represent a unique group of mammals, characterised by different life strategies. They are the only mammals capable of active flight, which, combined with their almost exclusively nocturnal activity, has led to the evolution of specific adaptations. One of the most striking is echolocation, which enables them to orientate themselves perfectly in their surroundings in the dark. Bats are mainly native to the tropics, but have also colonised areas outside the tropics, which, has led to a complex phenological cycle with active phases and interruptions during hibernation, especially in temperate zones. In this diverse and species-rich group (almost 1,500 known species), there is a wide range of social organisation as well as feeding and roosting strategies. The textbook "Fundamentals of Chiropterology" brings the current state of knowledge about these extraordinary animals in eleven chapters and two appendices for the first time in the Slovak language.

An important part of theoretical computer science is the problem of Turing machines. This computational model has two basic properties: like any other computational program, the software of a Turing machine is composed of instructions, but in its case they are all of a single type. Every other (so far known) computer program can be transformed into a Turing machine program without loss of information. While the second feature reduces the question of what a calculator cannot do to the question of what a Turing machine cannot do, the first feature allows a much simpler investigation of such a question. Using this computational model, we can thus find concrete problems that no automaton can ever deal with (perhaps the most famous is the problem of the Turing machine stopping). Their existence demonstrates the fundamental limitations of (not only ideal) computational means, and thus encourages both criticality and humility in our thinking.

In 2018, the Student Scientific Conference was held on April 18, 2018, in 16 sections covering biology and ecology, chemistry, physics, geography, mathematics, computer science, and their subject didactics. There were 110 registered contributions from bachelor's and master's students. Additionally, eight high school students participated outside of the competition; these students already visit our alma mater at a young age, work in our laboratories, and prepare for further studies under the guidance of our enthusiastic teachers. The day also included a programming competition and the IHRA competition in three categories, where students from PF UPJŠ competed alongside pupils from elementary and secondary schools.

The abstracts of the Student Scientific Conference contributions convincingly demonstrate that PF UPJŠ students study their field not only theoretically but also actively engage in solving partial scientific problems that are part of the research goals at PF UPJŠ institutes. This collection provides an overview of scientific activity at the faculty, which we believe will be interesting for the broader public as well.

One of the fundamental characteristics of the magnetic state of ferromagnetic materials is the existence of a domain structure. The university textbook "MAGNETIC DOMAINS: SPECIAL PHYSICAL PRACTICE 1" is intended primarily for students of the Master's programme in Physics of Condensed Matter FKLm and for the PhD programme in Progressive Materials PMd within the profile subject Special Practice 1 at the Institute of Physical Sciences of the Faculty of Sciences of the Pavol Jozef Šafárik University in Košice.  The textbook is divided into seven chapters. The first chapter is devoted to the basics of domain theory, including the history of domain observation and the specification of different types of energies in ferromagnetic body. The second chapter presents the relationship between domain structure and magnetisation processes in ferromagnetic materials The third chapter describes the different types of domain-wall interactions with the defect. The fourth chapter illustrates examples of domain structure in selected ferromagnetic body such as grain oriented and non-grain oriented electrical steels, amorphous and nanocrystalline ribbons. The fifth chapter summarises an overview of the different experimental methods used to visualise the domain structure and their advantages or disadvantages with respect to the structure of ferromagnetic materials. The last two chapters, the sixth and the seventh, are devoted to specific experimental tasks for observing the domain structure of a selected polycrystalline sample using the optical microscope Bitter powder method and the MFM (magnetic force microscopy) method. During the preparation of this undergraduate text, its individual parts were developed using the foreign language literature listed in the recommended references.
