Badatelsky orientované učení ve výuce fyzického zeměpisu
VACKOVÁ, Vendula
This diploma thesis responds to the innovative trends and the causes of these changes in the science education.. The theoretical part of the thesis deals primarily with Inquiry-Based (Science) Education. It is focused on its definition, main features and its position in the Czech educational system. The main goal of this thesis and an output of the practical part is creating a portfolio with Inquiry-Based Science Education tasks in the physical geography (geology, geomorphology, pedology and biogeography) intended for the 2nd stage of primary schools.

Practical examples of the use of project teaching of physical geography at the 2nd primary school
TRTÍKOVÁ, Renata
The aim of the thesis is to develop an expanding educational curriculum manual applicable in the practical field of teaching geography at the 2nd primary school. The work contains a set of projects with practical exercises and field experiments, explaining the specific processes and physical geography concepts linked to the selected area (Domažlicko and Humpolecko). Individual chapters are devoted to physical-geographical sub-disciplines (meteorology and climatology, hydrology, soil science, biogeography, geology and geomorphology) and the first chapter is devoted to cartography.

Physiography projects and experiments intended for senior elementary school
MELICHAROVÁ, Eva
The topic of my thesis are physiography projects and experiments intended for senior elementary school. In the concrete, the thesis is dealing with studies of appearance of various projects and experiments in area of physiography in literature intended for students of senior elementary school and their usage in geography education. The attention is paid also to publicetions of special and non-fiction geography literature, encyclopedia. The theoretical part of the thesis is dealing with anylysis of given literature in vwhich is by the way viewed the measure of representation of projects and experiments from physiography. The experience part of thesis is resulting from knowledges and information gained right in foregoing theoretical part. The main readout of the thesis is tutorial manual (project sheets), which chapters are devoted to studying physiography subjects.

Current state of physico-geographical investigations in the Institute of Geonics, Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic
Kirchner, Karel
Physico-geographical investigations in the framework of the Institute of Geonics, Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic are carried out in the Department of Environmental Geography in the Brno Branch. Geonics was defined as a science which studies the substance of processes occurring in the Earth crust due to anthropogenic activities including environmental impacts. Activities of the Brno Branch are concentrated on an evaluation of human impact on landscape and a study of the interactions between nature and society. The investigation in the Brno Branch has the direct link to the regional geography, that frequent trend of the Czech regional geographical research is solution of environmental problems in regions. Physical geographers solve research tasks in the framework of environmental geography. Collaboration between physical and human geographers is a basic concept for research projects in the Brno Branch. In the last 10 years, physico-geographical investigation has concentrated to the partial research directions: - geomorphological investigations, - climatic hydrological investigations, - biogeographical and geoecological investigations.
