Learning with Elements of Inquiry-based Science Education Focused on Invertebrate Animals of the School Garden for Pupils of the 2nd Grade of Primary School
Sedláčková, Denisa ; Svobodová, Silvie (advisor) ; Říhová, Dagmar (referee)
The thesis delves into teaching with elements of inquiry-based education, with a focus on invertebrate animals in the school garden environment. The theoretical section addresses the instruction of invertebrate animals at the 2nd level of primary school, characterizing representatives commonly encountered by students in the school garden. Simultaneously, it identifies the potential of the school garden for natural science education. This section also describes activating teaching methods to be implemented in the proposed educational program. The practical part of the thesis thoroughly explores the design of an educational program with an emphasis on investigative elements. This program includes the production of tools for collecting and capturing invertebrate animals, such as creating insect hotels, beetle traps, and pitfall traps. The thesis also meticulously examines the practical utilization of various tools for identifying captured invertebrates. The proposed educational program has been carefully implemented and subsequently thoroughly verified in practice. In the research section of the thesis, a systematic study was conducted using pretests and posttests to examine the impact of the applied educational program on changes in students' knowledge and attitudes towards invertebrates.

Gymnasium Dolní Kounice
Fišerová, Markéta ; Fišer, Jiří (referee) ; Odvárka, Antonín (advisor) ; Petříček, Tomáš (advisor)
The subject of this bachelor thesis is to design new building of the gymnasium of the elementary school in Dolní Kounice. The project is based on a study created in the summer semester 2019 in the subject called AG035 „Ateliér architektonické tvorby 5“. Mass of the new created gymnasium responds to surroundings, which consisting of steep hills with wine cellars and buildings of elementary school and kindergarten. All those mass form optically enclosed space. The building therefore is located under the terrain and blending with the surrounding as much as possible. Only visible mass from the outside is green roof in the shape of barrel vault, which freely passes into the surrounding grassy area and it is also open to public. It seems like big green hill in exterior. Only markable exterior elements are the main entrance and escape exits, chimney and skylights. The designed gymnasium has a rectangular shape of floorplan and the building is devied into three floor acording the functions. In the first floor, there is entrance hall, first underground floor is mainly for the public and second underground floor is for the athletes. The project also include athletic track 60 m, new outdoor playground for elementray school and kindergarden, new parking places, new road leading along the steep hills and underground corridor, which conects school with gymnasium in second ground floor.

Media Image of the Selected Geological Terms from Evolution of the Organisms on the Earth
Bartůňková, Denisa ; Teodoridis, Vasilis (advisor) ; Říhová, Dagmar (referee)
1 ABSTRACT The aim of the presented bachelor thesis is to map the media image of 9 selected geological terms related to the topic "Evolution of the Organisms on the Earth" and to analyse an educational potential of selected media texts/articles for teaching process at primary and secondary schools. The bachelor thesis also presents the author's methodology for evaluation of the occurrence and categorization of (geological) terms in media texts/articles selected using the Anopress database. The thesis combinates qualitative content analysis and qualitative research. The research sample includes 115 articles/texts from the 15 most read news websites from the first to third quarters in 2021. The results show that (i) the most frequently mentioned topics in media are recent organisms, geological environment and ecological terms and relationships in a context of the analysed geological terms, (ii) only a small percentage of the analysed articles/texts can be used for teaching process at primary and secondary schools as supplementary studied materials, because most of the articles have mentioned geological terms without further explanation, (iii) Deník.cz has the highest educational potential from the 15 most read news websites.

Hrozányová, Martina ; Teodoridis, Vasilis (advisor) ; Říhová, Dagmar (referee)
The diploma thesis is focused on the didactic use of the educational trail through the Elbe Valley for students of the 2nd grade of elementary school. The main goal of the thesis was to create a topic for the practical use of the existing educational trail through the Elbe Valley and at the same time to prove that excursion as an organizational form of teaching is thanks to its versatility an effective tool in the process of education and despite many difficulties to implement it it is worth the effort. The theoretical part includes the characteristics of the educational trail and its surroundings, the purpose, function and organization of the excursion and the inclusion of the science excursion in the Framework Educational Programmes of Basic Education. The second part of the thesis is a research - it contains a description of the author's worksheet and testing methods, i.e. pretest/posttest and attitude questionnaire. These were used on a pilot group of elementary school students participating in the excursion. The results of the survey show that the excursion can be perceived as an effective and at the same time popular form of teaching, through which it is possible to increase the effectiveness of teaching science at elementary school. Their validity is affected by a small number of...

Innovation of the FEP and SEPs according to the present trends of ICT education in primary schools and corresponding classes of grammar schools
ČAPKOVÁ, Michaela
The main objective of the thesis is to create a draft of a SEP, which is going to be used as an exemplary for the education of ICT in primary schools and corresponding classes of grammar schools. The exemplary SEP was created in connection with a new planned FEP and according to the present trends of ICT education, based on the possibilities of the usage of modern technologies. The reworked SEP deals with the knowledge expected for students to master and the resulting learning materials, which are supposed to be taught in schools during ICT lessons or during acohered educational field Man and the World of Work. The designed SEP is based on the evaluation of SEPs acquired from nine schools of South Bohemia region. These SEPs were analysed in details. The thesis also contains aqualitative research regarding the education of ICT. It surveyed the actual content of ICT lessons in primary schools and corresponding classes of grammar schools and it also finds out if the lessons correspond to the FEP and the school´s current SEP. The designed SEP is supported with several video-recordings of ICT lessons taught by the ICT department students of Pedagogical Faculty of the University of South Bohemia. They mostly cover the education of algorithmization, programming, use of cloud tools for creating web presentations and processing of information. They also taught about the usage of avoting device for physics classes in regards to the cross-curricular themes. The thesis is created within the OP RDE of the project Development of key competences in terms of subject didactics, cross-curricular themes and interdisciplinary relations (registration number CZ.02.3.68/0.0/0.0/16_011/0000660) and with a National Institute for Education for ICT and Man and the World of Work expert consultant Mgr. Daniela Růžičková.
