PEŠKOVÁ, Šárka
The main aim of this bachelor thesis is to find out the efficiency of research-based teaching in biology lessons at upper primary school. The next partial aim is the comparison of students' effectiveness during lessons with elements of exploration-based teaching (a.k.a. experimental group) and comparison of students during frontal teaching (a.k.a. inspecting group). The bachelor thesis deals with teaching methods which can be used during students' lessons at upper primary schools and concentrates on possibilities of research-based teaching. Three research-based tasks which focus on plants and their parts (root, stalk, leaf) are suggested in the thesis. The use of these suggested tasks was verified in author's own practical training in seventh grade at one of the primary schools. Individual tasks are formed and prepared in order to develop creativity, independence, sense of co-operating and exploring stated topics with others. These suggested themes can be used during biology lessons at upper primary schools. The results of efficiency of suggested research-based tasks are presented in the bachelor thesis.
