The legacy of Jan Amos Comenius can be understood as a continuously professional and social discussion on the issues of education and learning. The article presents the idea formulated by J.A.Comoneius in the Great Didactics "If a person is to become a man, he must be educated". In his work called The gate of unlocked languages", Comenius postulated the thought of respecting the natural, pdysical, spiritual and social development of a human - a child, a studnet and an adult. In the work "Labyrinth of the World and Paradise of the Heart", Comenius characterises learning as "difucult and bitter entry into life". The article focuses on confronting the ideas of J.A.Comenius in the current, turbulent, electronic and digitalised times.
