Theory of contemporary web design and its application to development of responsive websites
Ferenc, Jakub ; Procházka, Josef (advisor) ; Fuglík, Viktor (referee)
By theoretical analysis we regard web design as a digital, design field, which is inherently creative. That is why we analyse it on the background of research in creativity, design and new media. We demystify the romantic view on creativity; analyse the componential, evolutionary and other views on creativity; find out that expertise and context are important for creativity. By analysis of theories of design we discard the perception of a designer as a "decorator"; define design as solving "wicked" problems and as a distinct type of thinking which is suitable for integrating art and technology as well as for innovations in the postindustrial society. We also analyse the relation between design and the user. We discuss code as "material" for web design. After the historical analysis of the evolution of Web we define an "axiomatic system" whereby we analyse Web. The axioms are: Web as a technological platform; Web as a new medium; Web as interface, consisting of code and the human side which exist in the broader sociocultural context; Web as interaction design; Web as a work existing and changing according to the immediate (spatiotemporal) context of use. With the analysis and axioms we elucidate why the current web design is responsive, "mobile first" and what role the mobile context...

Specifics of electronic learning supports in the system of controlled self-study
Herout, Lukáš ; Procházka, Josef (advisor) ; Černochová, Miroslava (referee) ; Lojda, Jan (referee)
This dissertation thesis deals with the exploration of the issue of electronic learning supports intended to boost controlled self-study within university environment. This paper proceeds from the presumption that electronic learning supports are a suitable tool with a didactic potential in education which will make university self-study more effective and which will help students to meet the demanded requirements even more effectively than with commonly used learning materials. The paper deals with the definition of conceptual constructs from the field of electronic learning supports and also with the analysis of their didactic capabilities, limits and ways of usage with added specification of functional and didactic aspects of audio-visual learning supports. The empiric part of the paper uses a pedagogic experiment to verify the influence of the electronic learning supports on the university student's results within the controlled self-study. The paper complexly develops the theory of electronic learning supports from the point of view of current didactic resource and its inclusion into current structures of pedagogy and didactics.

Interactive Whiteboard in Educational Practice
Žďárská, Lenka ; Procházka, Josef (advisor) ; Horák, Josef (referee) ; Doulík, Pavel (referee)
TITLE: Interactive Whiteboard in Educational Practise AUTHOR: Mgr. Lenka Žďárská DEPARTMENT: Department of Information Technology and Education SUPERVISOR: PhDr. Josef Procházka, Ph.D. ABSTRACT: Is it possible to use the interactive whiteboard as a phenomenon of today's education? Does it really make the process of education more efficient? Does it have any motivational potential and does it make a teacher's daily work easier? Offered dissertation will try to clarify these suggested questions. The Thesis is introduced by a theoretical part which describes the interactive whiteboard as a complex and integrates it into the current system of didactic tools. It also deals with the aspects of efficient language learning among which belong motivation and interactivity. The theoretical part is followed by the analyses of empirical research which is devoted to using the interactive whiteboard from teacher's and student's viewpoint. The main aim of this work is to incorporate the technical didactic tool - the interactive whiteboard into the current system of didactic tools and secondly, in experimental verification of its effects on teachers and students within educational process. KEYWORDS: didactic tools, interactive whiteboard, interactive teaching

Educational programs in the www enviroment
Revenda, Václav ; Procházka, Josef (advisor) ; Brdička, Bořivoj (referee)
TITLE: Educational programs in the www enviroment ABSTRACT: The aim of this work is to analyze the availability of educational web site aimed at teaching media and evaluate them on the basis of a given set of criteria and to moni- tor the situation in secondary schools in terms of the use of tutorials on the web. Sub- sequently, a methodology of the previous educational sites is developed. It is also deployed in the teaching and verified in the practice, thus obtaining feedback, which will serve to further develop this environment. KEYS WORDS: sound, image, video interactivity, multimedia feedback, mobility,language, complexity
