Teaching about Human Endocrine System at Elementary School
KLOKOČKOVÁ, Markéta
The main goal of the bachelor thesis was to create five original didactic games on the topic of the human endocrine system for pupils of the 2nd grade of primary school. The didactic games were created in order to consolidate the basic knowledge and to acquire extension and supplementary knowledge.Teaching through the didactic games and conventional teaching were used at a mainstream primary school located in the Central Bohemian Region, in a town with a population of 1 to 8 thousand, after the consultation with the school administration and the subject teacher.The control and experimental groups were tested using pretest, posttest I and posttest II.

Cross-curricular relationships physics - biology in physics teaching in basic schools
PECHOVÁ, Veronika
My bachelor's thesis deals with the interdisciplinary relationship between physics and biology and It's teaching at the second stage of primary school. In the introduction I focus on the trend of intergrated teaching and interdisciplinary relationships in general. In my bachelor's thesis we can find individual physical phenomena from biology textbooks. In the chapter called "Analysis of selected physical phenomena in biology textbooks" I will focus on sound and light. At the end of the bachelor's thesis I also mentioned some suggestions for practical teaching in schools.

Teaching biology and mathematics with the use of model school gardens
KOSOVÁ, Kamila
The aim of the diploma thesis is to develop an educational offer usable for outdoor teaching at upper primary schools. The interdisciplinary principles between the school subjects of biology and mathematics are applied in a series of complex tasks. The theoretical part summarizes the issues of the FEP (Framework Education Programme), also the anchoring of natural history and mathematics in the FEP BE (Framework Education Programme for Basic Education) and lastly the interdisciplinary relationships and the use of school gardens. The main benefit of this work is a development of a specific curriculum for subjects of mathematics and natural history. It consists of eight activities applicable to teaching in school gardens. However, most activities are suitable for both outdoors and indoors teaching. Individual activities include a methodological sheet for teachers and a worksheet for students. By reason of the Covid-19 pandemic, the worksheets were evaluated by fifteen practicing teachers using a structured interview method. Final versions of the worksheets were finished based on their comments and observations. Respondents' answers are included in the chapter Discussion.

Analysis of students' results in solving of selected tasks used in the Biological Olympiad
BEJDOVÁ, Radka
This bachelor thesis is focused on the didactic analysis of selected tasks from the Biological Olympiad. It tries to clarify the success and failure of students in the district and regional rounds of the competition. Bachelor thesis also tries to find out the reasons why students made a mistake. The results of the didactic analysis are written in tables. Finally, it considers the integration of these tasks into school lessons.

Teaching about selected topics of first aid at elementary school
BARTOŠOVÁ, Barbora
The aim of thesis was to design and to verify the author's education programme on chosen topics about first aid. The verification of the programme had to take place, due to long-term schools closure, in two parallel eight grade classes in the form of distance learning in one of the elementary schools in Ceske Budejovice. Before the lesson, the students had to fill in Pretest, that was supposed to discover students' existing knowledge of the topic of first aid. An experimental class was chosen randomly, in which the lesson was led with the help of the instructional videos of the author's programme, practical drill, didactic game, crosswords and wordsearch. Control group was taught conventionally through monologue with the help of Microsoft Powerpoint presentation following with students' filling in a worksheet. The second day of the lessons, each class filled in a Posttest I and two weeks later a Posttest II, in both cases these were two identical didactic tests. The principle Pretest - Posttest verified the effectiveness of the relevant education project and through the statistical analysis of the t-test it was discovered that a statistically significant increase of the knowledge level in both groups of students occurred. Because both groups improved and then worsened, the chosen type of teaching did not affect their knowledge level. The difference of the Pretest, Posttest I and Posttest II was statistically different in favour of the experimental group contrary to the control group and also in favour of boys contrary to girls. Perception of the importance of the first aid topic changed in time in the way that students assigned the topic more value. The verified education material could be a benefit to biology lessons in upper primary schools.

Problematical issues of of ecology education at lower-secondary level from the teachers' point of view
PŘIBYL, Karel
The aim of the Master´s thesis is to identify the problem areas of the eco-logy curriculum at lower secondary level and to create educational activities that would help to better manage these issues. The theoretical part summarizes the situation of the ecology curriculum within biology as a school subject at lower secondary schools. In the practical part of the thesis a questionnaire survey was conducted among biology teachers in order to identify problematic issues of eco-logy and then an interview was conducted with selected participants in the que-stionnaire survey. Teaching materials have been created for those problem areas of the ecology curriculum.

The probe of knowledge about living nature in lower secondary schools
SKALICKÁ, Karolína
The main aim of the bachelor thesis was to ascertain the level of knowledge of lower secondary pupils about living nature. Following the written didactic test, the pupils undertook an Educational Forest Trail walk whereby they could assess their newly acquired knowledge. Some natural objects were available to help the pupils with the test and its selection was based on the textbooks used in previous years. One of the chapters of this thesis focuses on the chosen realia as well as the questions for the test. The practical part contains results of testing and it describes the process of the walk. Finally, the results of this thesis are compared to the results of similar studies.

An Educational Game in Teaching Human Nervous System
NEUBAUEROVÁ, Marcela
The bachelor's thesis aimed to create four author's didactic games for primary school pupils and their verification in practice. Two didactic games were primarily created to acquire knowledge of the topic of the human nervous system. The other two didactic games were created to consolidate knowledge of the topic of the nervous system and knowledge of the topic of the digestive, respiratory, circulatory and muscular systems. The verification of the created didactic games took place at a regular primary school, which is located in a South Bohemian town with a population of 1 to 5 thousand. The verification in practise was performed using pretest, posttest I. and posttest II.
