Bourek, Josef ; Šedivá, Zuzana (advisor) ; Benáčanová, Helena (referee)
The aim of this thesis is to pass on the specific view on problems of multimedia and e-learning in teaching including making a methodology for creating multimedia teaching application. The methodology will make the work of creating multimedia teaching application easier for the creators (especially teachers). As a component of this thesis is a detailed description of functionality of software Camtasia Studio. This software offers sufficient quantity of functions for creating the multimedia data. This software was used in creating a few sample multimedia applications. This created multimedia applications were tested by students and succeeded. The thesis is concentrated on all teachers and offers them a chance for better teaching. It is not limited for teachers, it also can be used by other people. There are also mentioned problems of compression, codecs and formats, which are related to the subject of this thesis. There is also mentioned a topic concerned with communication, because it is considered as a part of teaching.

Technical resources for educational support of students with handicap
Louda, Petr ; Šedivá, Zuzana (advisor) ; Žid, Norbert (referee)
This paper deals with evaluation of quality of technical resources to support education of students with handicap at computers. This work aims to map and asses' quality and market appeal of common technical resources for home usage with opinion on less common technical resources for average user and at same time with respect for students with handicap. This publication is divided into four logical parts. First part is devoted to theoretical approach into field of handicaps. From nature of illnesses and handicaps result essential facts, that affects using computers by users with handicap. At the end of this section are noted appropriate ways of using computers. Second part attends to financial seriousness when buying technical resources in this field of purpose. Third section briefly describe method of evaluating products based on first part and define criterion which reflects facts of relevant handicap and at same time also demands of common human user. Fourth part concludes mapping and delivers assessment of chosen products. Publication is completed by trends and facts that affect present market with technical resources.

Možnosti využití e-learningu pro výuku programování
Svoboda, Ondřej ; Švecová, Jarmila (advisor) ; Pecinovský, Rudolf (referee)
Cílem práce je vytvořit souhrnný pohled na problematiku e-learningu a uvést doporučení pro výuku programování. Dále vytvořit materiál, který by měl pomoci studentům začínajícím s objektově orientovaným programováním. V teoretické části jsou popsány formy elektronické výuky včetně úlohy ICT. Jsou srovnány výhody a nevýhody e-learningu oproti klasické výuce a podán obraz vývoje tohoto odvětví od historie po současnost i s výhledem do budoucna. V samostatné kapitole jsou uvedeny nejdůležitější standardy včetně standardizačních organizací. Také jsou zhodnoceny formy e-learningu ve vztahu k výuce programování. Součástí je webová prezentace obsahující výklad základních pojmů spojených s objektově orientovaným programováním. Při výkladu pojmů se autor snaží pojmy co nejvíce přiblížit realitě pomocí různých příkladů. Cílem je poskytnout na pojmy další možný pohled. Prezentace dále obsahuje materiály, které mají pomoci studentům zvládnout první dvě cvičení předmětu 4IT101 Základy programování. Každý úkol obsahuje sepsaný postup nutný pro jeho splnění a animaci provádějící postupem krok za krokem.

Web application for programming student training
Podolka, Luděk ; Pavlíček, Luboš (advisor) ; Pecinovský, Rudolf (referee)
Goal of this master thesis is to describe possible solutions for compilation, execution and unit testing of user programs written in Java hosted on web server. Another goal is to design and to implement web application which would allow students to write and to test simple programs during Java lessons. Chosen method for achieving first goal is studying relevant resources, mainly documentation and source code of projects which implement dynamic program execution. To accomplish the second goal the author uses requirements analysis and principles of agile methodology of extreme programming. Parts of UML notation are used to make the design part clear. First part is focused on theory behind dynamic program execution in Java, class loading, compilation of source code and software security. Overview of tools built upon these basic concepts follows. These are dynamic module systems, software testing tools, build automation tools and continuous integration servers. Previously mentioned tools implement dynamic program execution. Third group consists of tools for source code quality analysis which could be considered as components of application for education purposes that is to be implemented. The author summarizes the task of new application development and performs requirement analysis in the practical part. Internal structure of future application is briefly discussed by the author. The demonstration of detailed design is derived from one of user stories. Overview of tools and technologies used during the analysis, design and implementation is also part of the text. Integral part of this thesis is web application hosted on http://kitscm.vse.cz/tppv/. Authors contribution to the topic is synthesis of existing solutions to problems neccessary to analyze, design and implement working web application for program testing and the result of these processes itself.
