Equalising opportunities for pupils in the Czech educational system through the work of social pedagogues, social workers and other street-level bureaucrats.
Halaštová, Eliška ; Pýchová, Silvie (advisor) ; Kohoutek, Jan (referee)
This thesis discusses the possibilities of support for socially disadvantaged pupils in Czech primary schools by street-level bureaucrats in order to equalise their educational opportunities. Using a questionnaire survey, the thesis searches answers to the questions of what the support of disadvantaged pupils in Czech schools looks like, what organisational placement of street-level bureaucrats within the system can be effective for such support, and what support is appropriate for street-level bureaucrats themselves to perform their role well. The sub-results of the thesis are then claims that social pedagogues and social workers in schools, as well as social and other service workers outside schools, perceive support for disadvantaged pupils as part of their work and strive for it. A model of support inside and outside schools and effective collaboration between these actors therefore appears ideal. The fulfilment of the common goal of street-level bureauctrats is often hampered by inadequate working conditions, which should be systematically improved in order to improve the quality of line workers' work.
Abolition of Super-Gross Wage in the Czech Republic through the lens of the Multiple Streams Framework
Kalina, Martin ; Ochrana, František (advisor) ; Kohoutek, Jan (referee)
In general, the changes in the area of taxation do not represent anything exceptional. But sometimes a change comes along that leaves a more significant mark on people's minds as the super-gross wage did. It came into being in 2008, as part of the reform of public finance of that time. Despite numerous attempts and efforts to cancel it, it lasted for 13 years. It was finally cancelled at the end of 2020 amid the COVID-19 epidemic. The final thesis, therefore, focuses on its definitive abolition. The aim of the diploma thesis is to examine the abolition of super-gross wage from the point of view of public policy and to understand the process of the abolition of super-gross wage in the Czech Republic with regard to both the policy stage of agenda setting and the policy stage of decision making. The thesis looks at the research problem through the lens of the multiple streams framework. It is conceived as a qualitative case study, where the data represent media outputs that are analysed using thematic analysis.

This bachelor thesis talking about the analysis of the pedalling technique. It describes pedalling technique, the effects of poor technique on health and the possibilities of pedalling analysis. In the practical part, measurements are made according to a given test protocol. On the basis of the subjective evaluation of the riding technique, hypotheses were developed and confirmed or rejected by evaluating data from the BTS SMART DX and Medilogic pressure insoles.
Politicization - Issue of State Governance
Čermák, Michal ; Kohoutek, Jan (advisor) ; Potůček, Martin (referee)
Téma: Politizace jako problém státní správy Autor: Michal Čermák Vedoucí práce: Mgr. Jan Kohoutek Ph.D. Fakulta sociálních věd - institut sociologických studií - Katedra veřejné a sociální politiky Abstract The bachelor thesis deals with the problem of politicization of the Czech state administration. This problem is quite widely used in the media space, especially after every parliamentary election. However, nowhere is there precise data and description of how extensive this phenomenon is within the Czech state administration. This is mainly due to the unavailability of data directly from the Czech state administration. Due to the aforementioned unavailability of data, I decided to conduct qualitative research through interviews in this thesis. The interviewees were both experts in the field of public administration and politicization, and representatives of the largest political entities. By combining the opinions of experts and politicians, whose attitude towards politicization has not been mapped so far, I tried to get a new perspective on the issue of politicization and at the same time information from the practical functioning of public administration, to which politicians are close. Overall, the results suggest that the Czech civil service is not in as catastrophic a state as is sometimes presented...

In the thesis, the theoretical background is first elaborated, which serves to understand the issue. The following part is devoted to the analysis of the company including its surroundings. Here an assessment of the current information system for warehouse management is also made. The remaining part of the thesis is devoted to the proposal of possible changes and their description.
Preparation of graduate students for teaching in inclusive classrooms at the Faculty of Education of Charles Univerzity
Řiháčková, Nela ; Kohoutek, Jan (advisor) ; Veselý, Arnošt (referee)
Diploma thesis examines the preparation of students of pedagogical study programmes for teaching in inclusive classrooms during their undergraduate studies. In the Czech social and public policy discourse there is a visible growth of the value of inclusive education. Inclusive principles have been incorporated into Czech education with the amendment of the Education Act in 2015 (Act No. 82/2015). However, the current methods of undergraduate teacher education students' preparation for inclusive education are reflected minimally in the relevant research literature in the Czech Republic (e.g. Stará, 2015). Faculties of education then carry a significant degree of responsibility for ensuring sufficient and high-quality preparation of future teachers, who have the uneasy task of managing the inclusive education right at the level of the classrooms with a very heterogenous group of pupils. Teachers are expected to ensure the individualisation of teaching and to be competent in pedagogical diagnosis. This paper, using a qualitative case study of the Education for Primary School Grade 1 programme at the Faculty of Education, Charles University, will help to examine the current form of study preparation, evaluate its adequacy for the profession, identify problematic areas and suggest ways to improve the...
Policy Design of the Unified National Examinations to Higher Education Institutions in Georgia
Gabunia, Mariam ; Kohoutek, Jan (advisor) ; Veselý, Arnošt (referee)
The Unified National Examination (UNE) is a policy, which regulates the students' admission procedure to higher education institutions in Georgia. The UNE is a special policy in terms of its design, which manages admission procedure with a centralized and standardized approach. The main goal of this thesis is to study the 'side-effects' and challenges of UNE policy, explore its organizational structure and understand the main design patterns in the policy process to find the optimal solutions for current challenges. The research problem is studied through policy design conceptual framework in order to understand how a specific instrument mix was chosen by the policy-makers and how particular redesigns of the system were made in the previous years. The thesis discusses the design process of UNE, its design types and spaces and identifies the levels of government capacities in this process and its impact on tool choices. The thesis highlights the following challenges of UNE policy: contested testing model, controversial design of reforms, 'black holes' for corruption, inequality of access to higher education and restricted autonomy of higher education institutions, which need to be addressed for system sophistication in the future. Keywords Education policy, higher education system, national...
Attitudes of small municipalities to requests for information under Act No. 106/1999 Coll., On Free Access to Information.
Iran, Jakub ; Hejzlarová, Eva (advisor) ; Kohoutek, Jan (referee)
This diploma thesis is focused on finding out the attitudes of small municipalities to requests for information under Act No. 106/1999 Coll., On Free Access to Information. The main aim of this work is to examine these attitudes and try to find the causes of negative attitudes. At the same time, it is also secondary ambition to 1) analyze the applicability of the right to information in the context of small municipalities and 2) try to suggest possible measures that could reduce the negative attitudes of mayors of small municipalities to the right to information. In the diploma thesis, the mayors of small municipalities are viewed from the perspective of the theory of street-level bureaucracy, whose actions have a real impact on the implementation of public policies. At the same time, policy failure is a marginal concept, which looks at the law on free access to information as an example of a failure of public policies.
