Teaching mathematics - schema oriented education in outdoor environment
Mladá, Lada ; Slezáková, Jana (advisor) ; Hejný, Milan (referee) ; Jirotková, Darina (referee)
This thesis deals with teaching mathematics - schema oriented education in outdoor environment. It seeks advantages of outdoor education and tries to apply them fully in an innovative way of teaching mathematics for primary schools. It connects the innovative methods of teaching mathematics with our nature, in a peaceful and natural way. Nature is not just an expanded space for learning but it is the means of achieving more effective learning. The thesis informs the reader about the history of outdoor education and it enables deeper understanding of nature's potential and its role in education. It takes advantage of Czech and foreign resources on the matter. The thesis wants to enlighten mathematics students and teachers about the positives of outdoor education by providing a collection of ideas, including their real-life realization and their self- reflection, in the form of prepared mathematics outdoor education material. KEYWORDS Substantial Learning Environment, Schema-oriented Education, Outdoor Education, Outdoor Mathematics

Solving of geometrical problems and mosaics on primary school level
FANTOVÁ, Šárka
This thesis deals with the learning environment of Mosaic and its impact on motivation and geometrical imagination of children of primary school. Fundamental task of this thesis is to describe and adjudicate individual teaching lessons of experimental teaching during which Mosaics were used. Conditions for natural differentiation of children were used during these lessons. Concepts related to the goal of this thesis and to the geometry on primary school level are described in part "Foundations of thesis task solution". Different types of Mosaics and puzzles are dealt with in part "Mosaics and construction kits - methodological foundations". "Methods used to solve the thesis task" forms the conclusion of this part. The practical part contains description of processing of experimental teaching and its analysis. Children works are presented here as well.

Substantial Learning Environments for Natural Differentiation
Tichá, Marie
In the contribution we will discuss several questions related to the creation and discovery of substantial learning environments and the potential they bear for general improvement of education. The concept of "substantial learning environment" will be characterized. We will also demonstrate what potential it has for natural differentiation as one of the forms of inner motivation.

Přirozená diferenciace v matematice
Dolk, M. ; Hošpesová, A. ; Krauthausen, G. ; Roubíček, Filip ; Scherer, P. ; Selle, A. ; Swoboda, E. ; Tichá, Marie
Coping with heterogeneity and motivation of all students independent from their capabilities, is one of the great challenges in primary school, especially for teaching and learning mathematics. In the project NaDiMa several substantial learning environments enabling "natural differentiation" were designed, tested in the classroom and will be analysed.
