Family Models: Teachers' views on this topic within curricula
Rejfová, Dominika ; Smetáčková, Irena (advisor) ; Hyánková, Tereza (referee)
The bachelor thesis "Family Models: Teachers' views on this topic within curricula" explores how teachers deal with family models in teaching according to their professional experience. I am interested in how teachers perceive the inclusion of family models into teaching. Whether more time should be devoted to this topic in ZSV classes or whether, on the contrary, this topic is sufficiently represented in the curricula. I am focusing on whether teachers present only the traditional family as a model or whether they try to include other family models in their teaching. Other related questions are then derived from this. These include how teachers apply family models in their teaching, whether teachers are afraid to express their opinions or whether they feel constrained in their practice by the school or parents. In the theoretical part, I focus on the terminology of family, the teacher as a person, and the family in the curriculum and teaching. I want to highlight the importance of the family for the child and the factors influencing the form and functionality of the family. In the practical part, qualitative research is carried out based on the interviews with ten informants teaching ZSV in a high school. Based on the thematic analysis, it was found that informants evaluate the inclusion of family...

Starting points for a new physics curriculum
Kolář, Petr ; Žák, Vojtěch (advisor) ; Ješková, Zuzana (referee) ; Kříž, Jan (referee)
This thesis presents starting and supporting points for a new secondary school physics curricu- lum and the methodology which was used. The research design was inspired mainly by the objectivist grounded theory. 29 in-depth semistructured interviews were conducted with elite Czech physicists and there were identified 79 ideas about a secondary school physics curricu- lum. After approximately two years, 56 ideas were used in the questionnaire survey where re- spondents expressed on a Likert scale their degree of agreement with the ideas. Respondents were natural scientists (non-physicists), experts on didactics of physics, secondary school phys- ics teachers and 26 of 29 physicists who were also participants of the interviews. In the ques- tionnaire survey, there were identified ideas on which all groups of respondents agreed and which are stable in time in the group of physicists.
