Macek, Lukáš ; Jelen, Libor (advisor) ; Hána, David (referee)
This diploma thesis puts into context political awareness and engagement of young people due to their educational process at secondary schools. Its goal is to evaluate fulfilment of the objectives previously set on the Czech grammar schools level. Specific focus is given on key competences which widen political and civic skills of pupils. With the help of extensive quantitative questionnaire which deals with geopolitical topics and following specifically targeted qualitative interviews, level of political awareness and factors which influence it are both verified. Quantitative survey proves sufficient level of political knowledge among grammar schools students and also positive influence of school as an institution thanks to special seminars. At the same time it confirms much higher level of knowledge in comparison with secondary schools students. Personal interviews with selected students verify their high level of political commitment; on the other hand respondents do not acknowledge influence of school in this particular topic. As study proves, factors which affect followed variables originate more likely from free time activities. Also gender and as far as school is concerned, only theme of special seminars is important. Key words: political awareness, political engagement, key competences

Using Children's Literature as a Basis for the Dramatic and Educational Process in Nursery Schools
Kalistová, Ivana ; Svobodová, Radmila (advisor) ; Holemá, Irena (referee)
The Framework Education Programme for Preschool Education is a legislative curriculum document which establishes the basic requirements for the state preschool education. The educational objectives and requirements are binding for the teachers. However, the way in which those objectives and requirements are met, is fully in the hands of each nursery school. This diploma thesis illustrates one of the possible ways of educating preschool children, namely the dramatic education. The dramatic education is presented here not only as an educational method but also as a style of pedagogical work. This particular style respects individuality and originality of each child with the intention of developing his/her potentials and with the effort to equip the child with necessary social skills. The practical part of the diploma thesis offers insight into the authentic dramatic and educational process which explores topics of human life. During this process, each child goes through a full-fledged personal and social development by means of dramatic activities, which are based on topics of literary text
