Karel Čapek's author's fairy tale in primary education to develop intersubject relationships
Šreinová, Eliška ; Laufková, Veronika (advisor) ; Komberec, Filip (referee)
This master thesis deals with the development of intersubject relations using the author's fairy tale, specifically the author's fairy tale by Karel Čapek. It also examines the development of the fairy tale genre and its features, and the characteristics of Karel Čapek's authorial fairy tales. In the course of research of current reading books, it was determined how often Karel Čapek's fairy tales are included in the reading books (from the book Devatero pohádek a ještě jedna jako přívažek od Josefa Čapka). It turned out that the most frequently used fairy tale is O princezně solimánské. The latter was used in the practical part as a text for the use of cross- curricular relations. The implementation was carried out in the 4th grade with 24 pupils in the lessons of literary education, music education, Czech language and national history. Individual lessons were planned in detail, then implemented, then subjected to a critical analysis and self-evaluation. It turned out that the prepared lessons led to objectives that support cross-curricular relationships. The most successful was the linking of the text with the topic of proper noun in the Czech language lesson and the processing of the same text in music education using a specific excerpt from the film based on the fairy tale. The pedagogical...

Personal Notes on Reading in Primary Education action research
Mazourová, Lucie ; Laufková, Veronika (advisor) ; Štípek, Jiří (referee)
The present thesis focuses on the use of reading records in the Czech language and literature lessons at the first level of primary school in the implementation of reading lessons. The thesis is divided into theoretical and practical parts. The main aim of the theoretical part is to define the basic concepts related to the topis, i.e. literacy, development of reading, motivation to read, reading diary, compulsory reading and reading records. The theoretical part describes specifically those reading records that are used in the practical part of the work, i.e. poster, letter to a character, graphic organizers, questions, double diary. The practical part was designed as an action research where reading lessons were designed and then taught in Year 4 of primary school, between October and December, in which a variety of reading records were used. A total of seven reading lessons were implemented, with the last, seventh, lesson serving as a reflective lesson. The output of each reading lesson was a worksheet along with the reading record. Based on the implemented lessons, it was investigated which reading records situ different types of pupils; which reading records pupils found stimulating and why; how pupils formulatd their thoughts and attitudes towards the books they read in the records, how they...

Climate of a school class at a primary school
Kubíčková, Anna ; Hejlová, Helena (advisor) ; Nekardová, Barbora (referee)
This diploma thesis focuses on the social climate in primary school classrooms. It aims to assess whether classroom teachers have an overview of the social climate in their classes. The thesis is divided into theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part examines the social climate of the classroom and the school. Additionally, it deals with aspects of inclusion and integration in the educational environment, as well as classroom management strategies that influence the classroom social climate. In the practical part, teachers' characteristics of the climate in their class are compared with the results of climate examinations conducted in their classes. The research happened in three classrooms and combined qualitative and quantitative approach. Three instruments were used for data collection: a questionnaire, interviews, and a observation. During the research evaluation phase, the averaged student responses in the questionnaire were compared with the teachers' responses, and data triangulation was performed. The completed questionnaires were compared not only with each other, but with the teachers' characteristic of the classroom climate obtained through interviews and observations as well. The research findings indicate that the teachers' perceptions of the social climate in their...

Teaching theoretical informatics using the CLIL method
KŮRKA, Martin
This diploma thesis deals with the design, preparation, and testing of teaching a theoretical topic in computer science using the CLIL method. I have chosen encoding and data transmission as my topic. I have created 7 teaching lessons, which contain over 30 activities and correspond to the expected outcomes according to the new framework curriculum for lower secondary education in the field of computer science. Each lesson has a different content focus. The created materials cover, for example the topic of character and number encoding, encryption, the use of the binary system and its limits, bitmap images and their encoding or data compression. All lessons are accompanied by method sheets in English, together with worksheets. The method sheets contain expected outcomes and possible problems that may occur. The lessons and activities themselves are then described in detail in the practical part. Since all the objectives and expected outcomes were met during my testing in practice, my conclusion is that the CLIL method is suitable for teaching the theoretical topic of computer science. However, a certain amount of support in the mother tongue was needed for teaching, which decreased as the students' confidence increased. It was also necessary to provide students with support in the form of visual aids such as worksheets. The most important fact is that during the testing the content was not neglected at the expense of language development and vice versa. In the theoretical part of this thesis, I describe the field of computer science according to the updated framework curriculum for primary education, especially the area of data, information, and modelling. Furthermore, in the theoretical part, I discuss the principles, benefits, and methods of the CLIL method.

Intercurricular teaching programme Fish of our waters
SVĚTLÍKOVÁ, Tereza
The aim of the thesis was to create a proposal for a teaching programme focused on the issue of fish occurring in the Czech Republic, in order to facilitate the work of teachers who can use the activities during their personal practice. The first part of my thesis focuses on the issues of water around us (lakes, ponds, running waters) and on some of the fish species living in the Czech Republic which are introduced to pupils in primary school lessons. The second part focuses on the design of a cross-curricular teaching programme, which includes tools such as worksheets, pictures, etc. Last but not least, reflection from practice and evaluation tests are included to verify the effectiveness of the proposed activities. The results show that after the implementation of the proposed activities, students have an overview of fish and everything related to them. They know some of the representatives, they can tell what fish needs to live, what it looks like, describe its body, distinguish between freshwater and marine fish, know what they breathe, what the fish's lateral line is for, etc. They also know what a fisherman needs to own when he wants to catch a fish and that it is not an easy job.

Back and forth between science and reality: Mathematical modelling in tasks with a science context (didactic experiment)
Šmíd Ridzoňová, Ráchel ; Havlíčková, Radka (advisor) ; Vondrová, Naďa (referee)
Mathematical modelling is part of the focus of the educational area "Mathematics and its applications" in the Czech national curriculum and is also a widely studied topic abroad. However, it does not receive much attention in Czech research. This thesis aims to introduce the concept to Czech readers and test the connection of mathematical modelling with science topics and the implementation of modelling tasks in the 5th grade of primary school. The thesis presents mathematical modelling as solving process of a complex problem with a real context in steps (0) undertanding the problem, (1) creating the real model, (2) mathematization, (3) mathematical operations, (4) interpretation of the result and (5) validation of the solution. Modelling competence, the modelling probem, and the relationship to word problems are also described. The chosen qualitative research method of didactic experiments explores the application of a holistic and analytical approach to teaching, identifies the difficult steps of modelling for 5th- grade students, and provides insights into cross-curricular relationships and organizational forms in the teaching of modelling. The research findings positively demonstrate that incorporating modelling tasks into regular lessons and linking them to science topics is possible but...

Analýza vztahu mezi veřejným financováním a vzděláváním: komparace Filipín, Malajsie a Thajska
Štursová, Kateřina
Providing high-quality education for everyone has been one of the principal objectives of development in the 21st century since education may be linked to the increase in the living standards and social development. In this thesis, the variable of education in the 21st century has been investigated within the period of 2010–2019 amid the era of two UN international programmes: Education for All (EFA) and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The analysis was dedicated to three countries of Southeast Asia: Malaysia, Thailand, and the Philippines. Although the overall quality of education ranked low compared to other countries in the examined period, between 2% to 6% of GDP had been invested in education in the three analysed countries. The relationship between the government expenditures and enrolment to school served as the main inquired variable. A week relationship between the variable of financing and enrolment was then identified in Thailand and, by contrast, a strong relationship emerged in connection to the university level of education in the Philippines. A direct dependence, and thus a relationship exhibiting a growth of expenditures alongside the rise in enrolment, occurred only in Thailand in 2010–2014.
