In this article, we discuss the motivation for including an operating system kernel development course in the master curriculum of the Faculty of Informatics at Czech Technical University (CTU) at Prague. We provide arguments for having this course included in the master's curriculum. We present selected options for the content of the course lectures and labs and options for technical infrastructure. I've shared the experience from delivering the course mentioned.

The article shares experience with teaching operating systems courses (of various complexity) for large number (up to one thousand) students. The nature of operating systems requires specific methods of lab environment/setup, lab exercises development and design of knowledge tests and final exam requirements. Automation of teaching processes is needed while maintaining quality of knowledge transfer and protecting reputation of the University. The article covers our experience with teaching courses covering UNIX/LINUX basics, administration of UNIX/LINUX operating systems, Operating Systems (classical course) and LINUX Kernel Programming. We discuss infrastructure that we designed, and we have been successfully using for several years.development and design of knowledge tests and final exam requirements.

In this article we discuss concepts of FIT CTU in Prague. Courses covering area of operating systems (OS). We present objectives of individual courses, synopses, syllabuses of lectures and tutorials, content relations between courses. Other courses having content interference with desribed courses are discussed. We propose new courses with content not currently covered by existing OS courses.

The article describes specific aspects of the practical part of teaching operating systems courses. Following problems associated with it are discussed here: (1) Possibility of fair evaluation of complicated commands and SHELL scripts functionality for a large number of students. (2) Possibility of solving practical labs, when the administrator mode is necessary and when it must be taken into account that the destruction of the system could occur. It is described here how this is solved in teaching process at the FIT CTU in Prague.
