Title: Post covid changes in childrens' physical activity at school Objectives: The aim of this diploma thesis was to find out whether and how the recommendations of ČŠI Inspiration for the support of pupils' movement skills in various school activities were implemented in Czech schools during the daily regime except physical education classes in the school year 2021/2022. Methods: The practical part is based on a questionnaire created in Google Forms, which finds out the current state of support for physical activities (according to ČŠI recommendations) and compares it with the state before the covid-19 pandemic. The questionnaire was sent to a stratified selection of schools using an online service called Mailchimp. The results were statistically processed in Google Spreadsheets. Results: Most of the addressed schools are acquainted with the recommendations of ČŠI Inspiration for the support of pupils' movement skills in various school activities and apply it in practice. Prior to the outbreak of the covid-19 pandemic, schools already implementing this ČŠI recommendation were then generally more active in supporting pupils' physical activities in the schools year 2021/2022. Both the schools that apply the ČŠI recommendations and those which do not showed a similar level of support for physical...

So the kids have place to be ashamed of us
Peřina, Jan ; Maršíková, Hana (referee) ; Mléčka, Jan (advisor)
The work aims to design an environmentally responsible school in a specific situation according to the innovative education principles focused on forest schools. The work reacts to the absence of forest schools in the Kroměříž region and offers an alternative to regular education systems and the regular appearance of the schools. The proposal is applied in Kroměříž. I design interventions in fore locations with different spatial characteristics. The interventions evolve existing features and characteristics of the location or make the accessible. Those interventions should be used not only for education but also for the locals.

The results were first analysed for each class to see what happened in each group and then all classes were summarized. Primary data were analysed by non-parametric Friedman's test, statistical significance between the...

Out-of-Classroom Chemistry Essentials Education as a Mean of Scientific Literacy Development
Čábelová, Simona ; Rusek, Martin (advisor) ; Bílek, Martin (referee)
This thesis deals with the aspect of outdoor education of chemistry in the context of the natural science literacy concept. This concept is approximated here in association with the curricula documents for secondary education level and the Contextual model of learning. Based on the description of individual contexts of the aforementioned model, an alternative variant of an excursion to the Prague Waterworks Museum in Podolí is proposed. The practical part focuses on the comparison of the efficiency of the "classic" conception of a museum excursion and the alternative approach mentioned previously. The whole concept adheres to the pedagogical experimental scheme. The comparison is achieved through three testings in two groups. The first, control group, had a standard excursion led by a museum guide. The second, experimental group, had an excursion led in the proposed alternative approach. Based on the first tests - the pretests, the starting knowledge of the pupils is analyzed. The second testing is executed as posttests right after finishing each excursion. The third testing is a retention test one month after the excursion. Test results were analyzed using statistical methods. The results of the analysis point to the considerable importance of the way the excursion is led and to the great benefit of...

Teaching mathematics with the support of outdoor elements
Smetanová, Eliška ; Jirotková, Darina (advisor) ; Slezáková, Jana (referee)
The thesis deals with outdoor teaching of mathematics at primary school level. It develops the current interest in outdoor teaching using current innovative learning methods. Its focus is to serve as an inspirational resource for teaching mathematics in the area where a pupil grows up and, on the contrary, to learn about his surroundings through teaching mathematics. It relies partly on teaching via schema-oriented education, but seeks to demonstrate the benefits of outdoor teaching regardless of the style of teaching. It describes and analyzes the specific features, benefits and challenges associated with outdoor learning. The work uses Czech and foreign sources to familiarize the reader with the basic phenomena that arise in connection with the learning process. Their role is pointed out on specific outdoor activities. Detailed analyzes of these activities work in the broader sense as examples of how to lead pupils to enjoy understanding mathematical laws in a non-school environment.

Růžička, Michal ; Kalkusová, Lucie (advisor) ; Bačáková, Radka (referee)
Goals: The goal of the thesis is to find out the benefits of teambuilding courses and the opinion of their participants after nine years. Methods: It is a case study of a chosen class from the Prague High School of Jan Neruda. The research sample consisted of 12 high school graduates at the age of 21 - 22 years who participated on a teambuilding course in Mozolov in October 2010. The research was conducted in the form of semistructured interviews, the data were analysed by basic statistics and the results were interpreted in tables by the counts of answers. Results: By analysing the interviews we found that the teambuilding course significantly affected the creation of social relationships within the class. These relationships were further deepened throughout the high school studies, as mentioned ten respondents. Ten respondents also answered that they tried new activities during the course, however only three have been practicing some of them after the course. The main memory from the teambuilding course was the first social moment. Conclusion: The teambuilding course effects the creating and deepening of social relationships and facilitates the first contact with classmates and teachers. It didn't contribute to develop the interest in practicing outdoor activities after the course. Keywords:...

This thesis deals with teaching mathematics - schema oriented education in outdoor environment. It seeks advantages of outdoor education and tries to apply them fully in an innovative way of teaching mathematics for primary schools. It connects the innovative methods of teaching mathematics with our nature, in a peaceful and natural way. Nature is not just an expanded space for learning but it is the means of achieving more effective learning. The thesis informs the reader about the history of outdoor education and it enables deeper understanding of nature's potential and its role in education. It takes advantage of Czech and foreign resources on the matter. The thesis wants to enlighten mathematics students and teachers about the positives of outdoor education by providing a collection of ideas, including their real-life realization and their self- reflection, in the form of prepared mathematics outdoor education material.
