Understanding of algebraic expressions by pupils of higher primary schools
Jelínek, Patrik ; Kvasz, Ladislav (advisor) ; Vondrová, Naďa (referee)
This master's thesis focuses on the understanding of algebraic expressions by higher primary school pupils. The objective is twofold. First, to determine, based on the quantita- tive evaluation of research data, the most common mistakes pupils make under the headings of generalization, algebraization, interpretation, geometrization, & manipu- lation; and then second, to compare the introduction of algebraic expressions in different mathematics textbooks. Beyond this, a theory is also appended. Including several research results, literature review also delves into several activities effective in enhancing pupils' understanding of algebraic expressions, as well as an illustration of their typical errors associated to the aforementioned headings. The second part of the thesis then consists of the two-part textbook analysis: First, a qualitative analysis of authors' reasoning when validating modifications of algebraic expressions, and then a quantitative analysis of the algebraic tasks concerning the headings (i.e., the creation of a task overview). The third part of the paper finally evaluates the author's research. With the test sample of 207 pupils selected from the last years of compulsory education, two additional objectives were set out - first, to find out which tasks (according to said...
Development of understanding of numebr positional notation in primary school pupils
Suchá, Anna ; Jirotková, Darina (advisor) ; Havlíčková, Radka (referee)
The notation of a number in the position system, especially in the decimal system, is the most widely used representation of a number by humans. There are various ways of developing pupils' understanding of this notation in the classroom. According to the literature, the key elements for developing understanding of number notation in the positional system are, in particular, problem solving tasks and their discussion. In Czech schools, a method persists which, according to the literature and the possible interpretation of qualitative research, does not seem to be effective. The observed level of pupils' understanding of the place value varies and does not seem to increase with the grade level. Pupils' demonstrated misunderstandings take different forms and are described in detail. KEYWORDS number notation, place value, type of assignment, didactic test, analysis of pupils' solutions

Alena Šturcová ABSTRACT IN ENGLISH The dissertation deals with diagnosing students' difficulties in didactic tests in CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) integrating mathematics and English. The aim of the thesis was to design and analyze didactic tests that are suitable tools for identifying sources of difficulties in CLIL teaching, where mathematics and English are integrated, and to determine whether it is possible to analyze students' results in individual tasks in these tests to determine whether the student has difficulties with mathematics or English. The thesis also addresses the attitude of CLIL students and CLIL teachers of a specific Czech school to CLIL teaching and learning. The thesis is divided into six chapters. The first chapter summarizes the theoretical background of the CLIL method, the next two chapters focus on assessment in general and assessment in CLIL, including some research on CLIL assessment. The fourth chapter is partly theoretical and partly practical, describing experiences and original research related to lesson planning, teaching goals, and CLIL implementation. The fifth chapter focuses on assessment of teaching...
Teoretické znalosti žáků vybrané střední školy z první předlékařské pomoci
Dvořák, František
This bachelor's thesis deals with the evaluation of the knowledge of high school students in the field of first aid. In the theoretical part, the author deals with first aid in specific crisis situations. At the beginning of the practical part, he created research questions that dealt with the awareness of students in the field of first aid. To obtain the data that was used to evaluate the practical part, he created a didactic test with 22 questions, which deals with both first aid itself and correct diagnosis of the condition. He gave the didactic test to 79 respondents of selected high school. He evaluated the test and summarized the results. Then he answered the research questions. From the obtained statistics, he created a discussion, which deals with the ability of students to properly provide first aid and diagnose a life-threatening or risky condition. In the end, he summarized the answers to the research questions and summarized the output of this bachelor thesis.
Item analysis as a tool for the evaluation of didactic tests: the example of the course Statistics for geographers
Novotná, Kateřina ; Netrdová, Pavlína (advisor) ; Pěnička, Jaroslav (referee)
In today's education system, we often encounter poorly created didactic tests that do not actually test the knowledge and skills acquired through teaching, or only test them to a limited extent. For example, if items for closed-ended questions are unprofessionally created, students may even guess the correct answers without having any knowledge and skills in the subject area. The aim of the bachelor's thesis is to evaluate the quality of closed-ended questions with a range of possible answers on the example of the final tests of the course Statistics for Geographers and, based on the obtained results, to recommend adjustments to specific items. The evaluation will be done based on item analysis using the ShinyItemAnalysis web application. In the case of poorly functioning questions, based on the results of the analysis, their modifications will be proposed so that they are more suitable for didactic testing. In the theoretical part, the bachelor's thesis will focus on the didactic test as a specific evaluation tool, its forms, individual types of test tasks and recommendations for their creation. Everything will be supplemented with specific examples from the field of statistics. The space will also be devoted to techniques of guessing answers, characteristics of test tasks and test theories....
