AB  - The paper deals with the importance of the development of digital competencies during the pedagogical training of future science teachers at the Faculty of Science of Palacký University in Olomouc. It emphasizes the issue of information thinking, which is increasingly required by professions. One of the questions for IT students related to algorithms and programming was included in the questionnaire survey. This is due to the fact that these are the two main pillars of IT concepts in the context of changes in education in the Czech Republic. The results of the survey led to a clear conclusion regarding the use of educational robotics. This tool is a suitable tool for personality development, logical thinking, creativity and teamwork. The use of mathematical software in science subjects generally allows the students (future teachers) to better understand the context, cultivate their sense of imagination and teach them this way of thinking.
