The especially pedagogical support for university study of students with the specific educational needs
KUKLOVÁ, Veronika
This bachelor thesis investigates a special educational support provided to university and college students with specific educational needs. This support is carried out by advisory centres, which help students with facilitation of their studies and orientation in the academic environment, as well as try to balance their studies and therefore compensate limits that accompany medical disadvantage or disability. The main aim of this thesis lies in an analysis of the resemblance of special educational support at the public college and universities. Particular goals are to determine, whether there are at the universities and colleges internal policies present concerning the support of students with specific educational needs, and to investigate, whether the private institutions provide the support to students with special educational needs as well. The paper consists of theoretical and practical parts and of the appendix. In the theoretical part we find three main chapters. The first one deals largely with discerning of specific and special educational needs. Simultaneously, it includes also a characteristic of students with sensory disability, somatic disability or with chronic disorders. Furthermore, it provides information on students with psychological disorders or with a specific learning disability. Second chapter focuses on the process of tertiary education and on differentiation of public and private institutions. The last chapter of the theoretical section is concerned with the form of special educational support and special counselling. A quantitative analysis was used for the practical part of the paper. The collection of the data was carried out by the method of content analysis and questioning. The research sample consisted of 18 centres of public tertiary education institutions providing support and of 2 expert centres of private schools. Collected data from public institutions were analysed and divided into three relevant categories. Analysed data from private schools were categorised by the availability and arrangement of the support for students with specific educational needs. Consequently, the data set was gathered, categorised and then compared to the results of the research. From the conclusion of the practical part, some recommendation emerged for optimization of some of the study events. The description of executing support for final state exams are nowhere to be found in the internal policies of researched schools, some attention could therefore be focused on the events of final state exams; partly on the execution of the actual exams, partly on the final thesis and their defences. The current situation at the public institution should provide some inspiration to the private schools. By inspiration is, in this case, meant the area of providing specialized counselling for applicants for studies and for students with specialized educational needs. Also, another possible improvement could be made in public schools, if the institution was able to create optimal conditions of the study for the students with physical disability and medical handicap. This thesis can be used by future students with specific educational needs, in the revised form it can provide information about the possibilities of study, which is supported by the experts from the tertiary education institutions. Perspective student can find information on the extent of support of specialized educational needs in the Czech Republic. The thesis can benefit experts as well, it can also help the spread the knowledge of of this problem throughout the public.

Risk group of persons with disabilities on the labour market in Prague from 2005 to 2015
Hošková, Laura ; Maule, Petr (advisor) ; Lukášová, Tereza (referee)
The theoretical part of the Bachelor Thesis comprehensively illustrates the status and representation of persons with disabilities (PWD) on the current labour market in the Czech Republic. In a general manner, the Thesis looks at the employment policy as well; especially its legislative basis in the legal framework of the Czech Republic and selected EU countries. Furthermore, the legal obligations of employers of PWD and the possibilities of fulfilling the mandatory share of PWD employment are stated. Findings of two qualitative employment studies are presented showing that PWD enter the labour market equipped with specialized competencies, which they are willing to complete by retraining programmes in case of need. The employers perceive the employment of PWD mainly as a financial profit, granted to them by the state; and the legislative conditions are a sufficient incentive for them. The questionnaire survey pointed out that the weakness in the employment of PWD is the lack of part-time jobs, which are highly demanded among them. Therefore the Thesis presents a solution, which could be the creation of shared work positions.

Systém odměňování v malém IT podniku
Novotný, Lukáš ; Dvořáková, Zuzana (advisor) ; Cetkovský, Pavel (referee)
The topic of this thesis is reward management and its application in a small-sized IT enterprise. Its goals are to properly document and describe current reward system in the company, evaluate the system and recommend improvements for the system. The first two goals are reached via thorough research of the company through semi-structured interviews, employee satisfaction survey, participant observation and document examination and the last one by applying principles from the current literature and education to the results of the two previous goals. The findings are that the reward system, despite growing organically instead of designed, is relatively effective in some areas, but needs improvement in other areas. The main improvement areas are motivation by contingent pay, communication management and performance management. Relatively well working rewards are especially non-financial reward connected to the work environment and work itself.

INSTITUTIONAL CARE
PAPÁČKOVÁ, Lucie
The aim of this bachelor thesis is to acquaint the reader with institutional care in the Czech Republic, performed in facilities belonging to the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs, and the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports. Institutional care is one of the most important measures in which the State may intervene in family relationships. Minors have the legal right to secure a proper education and overall development. If the parents or family are unable to fulfill this legal claim, then the State is obliged to provide the child with an alternative rearing environment, either by assigning the child to the care of individuals or a facility for children requiring immediate assistance, and in the event of a necessity, also the most important measure: imposing institutional care. Priority is always given to individual care before institutional care, either with another individual, guardian, or foster parent. The Act also defines exactly where it's possible to proceed to extreme measures and impose institutional care. Given the severity of this measure, this decision only appertains to courts. No other governmental or non-governmental institution has such authority. This paper is aimed at introducing institutional care and the protection of children in the Czech Republic, especially highlighting the fragmentation of institutional care. The fundamental part of this paper describes the process of imposing institutional care, and especially its implementation in individual institutional facilities, differentiated according to the children's age, their physical and mental abilities, and the reasons why institutional care was decided on. The priority should always be the child's interest and welfare. This work also highlights the shortcomings of institutional care, particularly the lack of cooperation between the socio-legal protection of children and institutional facilities, the limited cooperation between government departments, the lack of suitable family recovery, and the small number of social workers and judges in the field. Finally, I also mention the achievements that brought about the transformation of institutional care, particularly the conversion to small family type facilities, surrounded by a network of services for the families of allocated children, the children themselves, and also other families who find themselves in a difficult situation. Not all children can be placed in foster care, not all families can be recovered. Especially for some older children and those who have gone through a specific life experience (abuse, repeated return from foster families), an institutional facility is an environment where they feel more secure and where they can fulfill their need to belong in a group of peers. In my work, I also want to draw attention to the current system of child care for children and youth, which does not address the period following the departure of young people from institutional care, although the stage of becoming independent is the most important for their future life.

Sejkora, Jiří ; Jiránková, Martina (advisor) ; Šaroch, Stanislav (referee) ; Fárek, Jiří (referee) ; Adamcová, Lenka (referee)
Sub-Saharan economies need structural changes that would enhance their productivity, increase economic growth and development. In this regard, industrialization plays a key role. Using regression analysis, the aim of this dissertation thesis is to identify main factors (determinants) of industrialization in sub-Saharan Africa. The results indicate that infrastructure and economy size (measured by population size) represent main determinants of industrialization in the region. The thesis also deals with possibilities for development of those determinants. Case study of infrastructure development in Mauritius emphasizes privatization, cooperation with external subjects etc. Negative consequences of small economy size can be overcome by preferential trade agreements (under certain circumstances), as shown by analysis of the three smallest economies in the region.
