The Diploma Theses aims to investigate the role of social media in promotion of particular art-craft workshops. Based on half-structured qualitative interviews we analysed, what is the role of promotion of art-crafts on social media in their competitiveness and long-term sustainability. Also, we focused on how do the owners of art-crafts workshops evaluate the role of social media in promotion of artistic craftsmanship and finally, which particular practices or types of content work the best in their opinions, either isolated or in context of other promotional techniques and channels. The goal of this research was to understand how exactly art-craft workshops use social media to promote themselves. The main social media sites appearing in the research are Facebook and Instagram, but also others. During the research we managed to discover other interesting findings related to the community of followers and their function, or to concepts of WOM and Direct marketing. As well as we managed to cover reactions of the owners of art-craft workshops to recent changes in Facebook's algorithms and its practical impact on them.

Hejlová, Karolína ; Wolák, Radim (advisor) ; Zezulková, Markéta (referee)
Thesis New media as a part of media education on high schools focuses on the representation of new media in education on high school level. The trend of new media and the number of their users are still growing; the adolescents in particular spend great portion of their time using them. That is why I have decided to find out what is the position of this phenomenon in Czech education system on high school level, at grammar schools in particular. To get complex results I firstly analyse statutory documents for national curriculum, then methodological handbooks and other information sources for media education; I also look into teachers' knowledge of this topic and how they implement it to their lessons, and I also directly ask the students. The theoretical part of this thesis creates content base for the thesis itself and also for a lecture about new media that I have put together. The practical part combines qualitative and quantitative methods of research to get as precise results as possible.
