Agricultural literacy - a knowledge probe for primary schools
BOČKOVÁ, Natálie
The aim of this thesis is to determine the level of agricultural literacy among fifth grade primary school students attending schools located in rural areas. The topic of the thesis was motivated by the lack of attention to this issue in the Czech environment. Despite the fact that some topics related to agricultural literacy are included in the Framework Educational Programme (RVP ZV), the very concept of agricultural literacy is relatively new in the Czech Republic. The literature section focuses on the landscape and its functions in relation to agricultural literacy, the definition of the term 'agricultural literacy' itself and the development of its inclusion in the curriculum. At the same time, the thesis analyses the RVP and the occurrence of topics aimed at strengthening agricultural literacy in pupils. Last but not least, the thesis offers an overview of teaching methods and forms that could contribute to the formation of an agriculturally literate society from the beginning of school attendance. The methodological part contains basic information about the respondents participating in the survey and information about the questionnaire design. Furthermore, the process of measurement is written in this part of the thesis. The results and subsequent comparison with research conducted with a different set of respondents is recorded in the final part of the thesis.

KLAUSOVÁ, Klára
This thesis assesses the mutual expectations of nurses and students majoring in Generel nurse in practical training in selected hospital departments. The main goal of the thesis is to analyze what are the mutual expectations of nurses and nursing students in practical teaching in selected hospital departments. The thesis is divided into a theoretical part and an empirical part. The theoretical part covers history of education of nurses, current study conditions in nursing, competencies of General Nurses, practical training, mentoring and the specifics of nursing care in selected hospital departments. In the empirical part, a quantitative research survey was used. The survey was performed using two types of questionnaires. First type was distributed to nurses in the surgical, internal medicine and psychiatric wards. The second type was distributed to second and third-year students of nursing school. Six hypotheses were formulated: H1: The nurse expectations are influenced by the level of nurse's education. H2: The nursing student expectations are influenced by the level of nurse's education. H3: The nursing student expectations are influenced by the specifics of the selected department. H4: The nurse expectations are influenced by nurse's tenure in the selected department. H5: The nursing student expectations are influenced by the level of student's education. H6: The nurse expectations are influenced by the level of student's education. The results show that the nurse expectations is influenced by the level of nurse's education (H1) and also by the student's previous education (H6). The nursing student expectations are influenced by the specifics of the selected department (H3). It was also found that the nursing student expectations are not affected by the education of nurses (H2) or the student's previous education (H5). The results of the work can be used by nursing students before starting practical training as well as by nurses as feedback.

Radonská, Denisa ; Mojžíšová, Jarmila (advisor) ; Syřiště, Ivo (referee)
Dental hygiene is a modern, fast-growing field, so it is very important to ensure proper teaching. As dental hygienists care and participate actively in patient health, they should receive the best possible instruction so that they can pass on and use their knowledge. High-quality teaching is a necessity, unfortunately sometimes the appropriate level of teaching is not ensured for various reasons. The bachelor thesis deals with these questions - what is the level of teaching? Where are the shortcomings? How do students, graduates and representatives of fields evaluate the teaching? In the practical part I use the questionnaires and interviews to identify shortcomings and problems in teaching, summarize the findings and then propose solutions to how the level of vocational training for dental hygienists could be improved, how to ensure a more qualified knowledge transfer. The aim of the bachelor thesis is to analyze the teaching of vocational subjects and practical teaching of dental hygiene, to find out the satisfaction of students and to propose changes in the teaching of vocational subjects and practical training.

Terrestrial Isopods as Model Soil-forming Agents in Practical School Education
Korbélyi, Tereza ; Mourek, Jan (advisor) ; Nodžáková, Kateřina (referee)
- 2 - Abstract Woodlice (Isopoda) belong to major soil decompositors of plant material and at the same time easily collectible. These organisms are therefore suitable for integration into practical school lessons. The aim of this thesis is therefore to design inquiry-based education using Isopoda as an example of soil decompositors. The first part of this thesis is focused on the theoretical introduction to inquiry- based education. It is also devoted to describe woodlice (Isopoda), explain their morphology, life cycle and cover the most common species of Isopoda occurring in the Czech Republic. A simplified determination key for these most common species is included. The second part of the thesis includes complete instructions on how to use these organisms in practical teaching with elements of inquiry-based education. The manual contains techniques for collecting and storing woodlice. The manual also contains instructions to individual experiments, including the list of needed tools and advice, where to obtain the tools and other didactic materials. The third part of the thesis has a research character, where, based on a questionnaire survey, students' attitudes towards woodlice (Isopoda) and their knowledge shift before and after the practical lesson are evaluated. Keywords Isopoda, inquiry-based...

Statistic processing of results examined relations between all presented aspects and between gender, age, school grade and targeting of studies, experience with dissections and interest of all teachers themselves. At the beginning of the inquiry the following research questions were stated: 1. Are attitudes of students towards dissections during the lessons of biology different between genders? 2. Are those attitudes affected by factors such as subject preference, targeted field of study, own experience with dissections, favoured method of teaching anatomy or owning a pet? 3. Do mutual correlations between the attitude of a student and a particular teacher exist? 4. Are standpoints of teachers towards dissections during the lessons of biology influenced by various factors such as implementation into educational...
