Student's inquiry skills at lower secondary school
Nejedlý, Adam
Scientific thinking is an essential skill for full application in society associated with responsible human decision-making. The development of research skills and knowledge also contributes to its complexity. For the possibility of their systematic development, it is necessary to map the current situation of students in primary schools. The aim of the work was to find out what are the research skills of these students in the field of correctly formulating a research question based on specific problem and after finding a solution to formulate an answer to a given research question. Four research-oriented tasks were used, which were solved by 58 students from the seventh grade of primary school. It was found that more than half of the students are not able to formulate the research question correctly and more than one third of the students are unable to formulate the answer to the given research question correctly.

Analysis of different forms of autophagy in differentiated cells of yeast colonies
Nejedlý, Adam ; Palková, Zdena (advisor) ; Groušl, Tomáš (referee)
The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae forms differentiated colonies on solid agar medium that resemble simple multicellular organisms. Similarities with the functioning of higher organisms can also be observed and the structures of some pathways may be analogous to the interaction of cancer cells with healthy cells in human tissues. Along with chronological aging and gradual depletion of nutrients in the medium, growing yeast colonies differentiate into several cell types, especially the so-called U (Upper) and L (Lower) cells. The two cell types differ in morphology and metabolism, U cells being characterized by the presence of several vacuoles, a lower level of respiration, synthesis of storage substances and greater resistance to stress. L cells, on the other hand, usually contain one large vacuole, respiring mitochondria and have increased activity of some degradative pathways. They are also less resistant to stress and have a lower life span. In an aging colony, the lower L cells provide material and nutrients to the upper U cells, which thus survive longer periods of starvation. One important process that occurs especially in the more viable U cells is autophagy. This is a pathway designed to degrade a number of damaged or unnecessary cellular components in the vacuole. The aim of this thesis...

The Level of Lower Secondary School Students Data Literacy in the Context of Environmental Education
Navrátil, Vlastimil ; Vojíř, Karel (advisor) ; Nejedlý, Adam (referee)
This thesis focuses on data literacy and its application in the field of environmental and science literacy. The aim of this thesis was to map data literacy in environmental education among second grade elementary school students. This aim of the thesis was fulfilled through a test that involved data analysis, sorting and comparing data, and making decisions based on the data presented in the context of an environmental situation within four environmental education tasks. It was found that, on average, 68% of the pupils were able to extract the correct data from the attached maps, graphs and tables, 59% of the pupils were able to compare the data correctly with each other and 60% of the pupils were able to use the data presented to make decisions in the context of the environmental situation. KEYWORDS Data, Data Literacy, Environmental Literacy, Information, Natural History, Natural Science, Pupil.

Using of EduScrum Method in Biology Education at the Lower Secondary School
Čížek, Tomáš ; Vojíř, Karel (advisor) ; Nejedlý, Adam (referee)
This work was focused on the eduScrum teaching method and its use in the teaching of biology at the second level of elementary school, specifically in the seventh and eighth grade. The main goal was to characterize this method and find out what the students reported as its strengths and weaknesses, what they took away for themselves and what threats they perceived. Also, what suggestions did they have for improving the method. A secondary goal was to define the goals of science education in general and to define activation methods, among which the EduScrum method belongs. A modified SWOT analysis was chosen as a research tool. The students' statements were further processed qualitatively using the open coding method. The result of the research part showed that the students mentioned teamwork as the main strength of the EduScrum method. Non-cooperation was mentioned by the students as the weakest aspect. This paradox was explained on the basis of two theories of motivation - self- determination and mind-set. The greatest benefit for the pupils was the deepening of knowledge in the given topics. The students saw the greatest threat in non-cooperation and the related risks of missing work and receiving a bad grade. In order to improve the method, the students presented mostly irrelevant proposals that...

Teaching the Topic of Photosynthesis using Aspects of Inquiry-based Learning
Rapantová, Lenka ; Vojíř, Karel (advisor) ; Nejedlý, Adam (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with the teaching of photosynthesis in primary school science classes. The aim of the thesis was to validate a teaching program with elements of inquiry- oriented teaching, to find out its effectiveness on the level of knowledge acquired by the pupils of the seventh year at the second grade of the primary school. To investigate the educational effect, an initial pre-test was designed to ascertain the pupils' prior knowledge. Furthermore, the knowledge acquired after the laboratory tasks were carried out was analyzed and verified by an analogous post-test. The premise was that the laboratory activity would motivate the pupils' interest in science and provide a better understanding of photosynthesis, especially its inputs, waste substances and products. Another aim of this thesis was to find out how pupils perceive the attractiveness, value and usefulness of the tutorial after completing it and how they evaluate their efforts in this type of learning. A standardized IMI (Intrinsic Motivation Inventory) questionnaire survey was used to determine the above. The paper describes in detail the different laboratory tasks that were part of the curriculum applied in science classes, as well as the procedures necessary for their implementation and the students' reactions to the...

Professional training of pre-service teachers of biology in the field of scientific skills
Nejedlý, Adam ; Veteška, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Svobodová, Zuzana (referee)
In many cases, understanding the nature and validity of information presented on the basis of scientific knowledge is essential for application in contemporary society. Similarly, in line with the rapidly developing fields of science, technology and engineering, it is necessary to have enough competent people prepared to work in these areas. Consequently, scientific skills appear to be an essential component of scientific literacy, the development of which is the focus of pupil education in many countries. Teachers' attitudes towards the importance of scientific skills play a crucial role in pupils' education, as perceptions of their importance are the starting point for conveying their relevance to pupils and subsequently for their development. It is also important that teachers feel competent enough to teach these skills. A prerequisite for this is that they receive good and sufficient preparation in teacher education. The aim of the research was to characterize the professional training of biology teachers in the field of scientific skills. A content analysis of the annotations and syllabi of the courses in the study programmes was carried out. To determine attitudes, a questionnaire survey was conducted to investigate students' perceptions of the importance, self-competence, and higher...
