Uher, Vít ; Dlouhý, Martin (advisor) ; Bunc, Václav (referee)
The aim of this study was to determine and then compare the level of physical activity, physical fitness and obesity among primary school pupils in the Czech Republic and other selected European countries. The theoretical part of the thesis provides a comprehensive framework for understanding the concept of physical activity and physical fitness. It also discusses the characteristics, causes and consequences of obesity and the interrelationship between these three areas. The research part of the thesis is based on a quantitative survey in which available data on physical activity levels, physical fitness levels and the prevalence of obesity in primary school pupils in the Czech Republic and other selected European countries were collected, analysed and compared. The results of the survey showed that the results of the Czech Republic compared to the selected countries are different, disjointed, some of them contradictory. The data of some countries are not presented in the compared research, come from a different period or are collected on different age groups. For this reason, comprehensive research at a transnational level would be needed. Keywords: fitness, school age, comparison, exercise, children

Biblioverse – Multifunctional building with library
Košútová, Kristína ; Kratochvíl, Jan (referee) ; Bykov, Oleksii (advisor)
Children's libraries in the Czech and Slovak Republic are a mirror of education. The spaces are undersized, furnished with furniture and carpets to at least somewhat muffle children's screams. The question remains whether such furnishings are sufficient and whether a children's library should look and function differently. The project is being taken up by a new branch of the Jiří Mahen Municipal Library - the Children's Library. It is based on an understanding of child development, how children play and learn new things during their childhood - from birth to the age of 12. Children can create their own games and toys to play with in the library. Children will be able to make their own choices about how they spend their time in the library. Whether they will play individually according to their own ideas or become part of any workshop organised by the Jiří Mahen Library. In the project I define 3 basic typologies that make up the space, and these are part of the building's mass. The tower - it is the main vertical element, thanks to which children can move between several floors, but it is also a space hiding interactive elements and games. The Cave - is a smaller space that resembles a refuge or hiding place for children who want to hide and read, or just want to find their own corner. Tunnel - is the main horizontal element that connects the important points of the two main building volumes.
