- Houfková J., Mandíková D.: Physics in a box, Fair 17, Praha 2012A box with dimensions of 10.2 cm × 6.2 cm × 2.2 cm is filled with stuff that can be used to demonstrate more than sixty different physics phenomena. This paper presents the contents of this box and selected experiments performed with it.

- Válek J., Sládek P.: The cycling physicist, Fair 18, Hradec Králové 2013Bicycle involves a lot of technical solutions. All of them are based on laws of physics, therefore bicycle is a suitable teaching aid at primary school. Riding techniques, pedalling, distribution of mass and aerodynamic shape are also important. Therefore, we can use bicycle as a connecting link between physics, technical education, informatics, physical and health education, and other subjects.
