Title: Development of Competencies in Scientific Education through the Active Work of Pupils (Focused On Field Trips) Abstract The overall concept and strategy of science education is undergoing significant changes, the basic starting curricula are designed to develop key competences necessary for personal development and success of each member of society. Therefore, in addition to traditional, perhaps best methods and forms come into the forefront more participatory and inquiry- based approaches that encourage creative approach to teaching and emphasize their own initiative pupils. Unique role of a comprehensive scientific excursion channeled to various locations in order to accomplish a pre- assigned tasks and sophisticated science and social character. A new look in this direction provide natural areas or nature trails where students can explore, understand and assess phenomena in a broader context with regard to their natural, economic or social importance. This direct and indirect nature study research methods, practical activities, especially experimental enables pupils to create complex scientific skills and competencies. It helps students develop the intellectual gradual transition from a predominantly illustrative exploring the world around to explore the rational, abstract. The issue is also...

Metabolism of Saccharides - production of Didactic Materials for High School Education
Čermáková, Anna ; Teplá, Milada (advisor) ; Klímová, Helena (referee)
My rigorous thesis focuses on creating educational materials for High School Education, namely materials for teaching about metabolism of saccharides. This thesis is based on a research of international multimedia textbooks and Internet links. Results of this thesis are two educational materials - an educational program and a worksheet. Both of these materials were created to make teaching of biochemistry more effective, respectively teaching of the chapter about metabolism of saccharides in High School Education. The Worksheet composes of 21 tasks, which are mainly used for practicing of the discussed curriculum. The Educational Program is of a multimedia character and is created in Adobe Flash 8. This Educational Program is composed of a total of 12 animations (Starting Animation, Digestion, Glycolysis, Gluconeogenesis, Lactate and Alanine Cycle, Degradation of Pyruvate, Citric Acid Cycle, Interesting Facts, Test 1, Test 2, Didactic Game "Pexeso" ("Memory Game"), and About the Program). To make the use of this material easier for teachers a manual was created. The Educational Program is a part of the rigorous thesis and it is placed on a separate CD-R media.

Comparative Analysis of Chemistry Education ( Czech Republic - Scotland)
Laburdová, Jiřina ; Klímová, Helena (advisor) ; Teplý, Pavel (referee)
Key words: Scotland, Czech Republic, education system, Chemistry education, Chemistry teaching, National Qualifications, Standard Grade, Intermediate, Higher, Advanced Higher Abstract: The education system in the Czech Republic is currently undergoing many changes. Education systems of foreign countries are often what inspire us to make these changes. The aim of this thesis is to describe the education system in Scotland and the way chemistry is being taught at secondary schools in this country. Further it tries to compare these to the education system and chemistry teaching in the Czech Republic and consider whether we can adopt any aspects of Scottish education. Apart from analysis of study plans and educational documents, research for this thesis included visits to chemistry lessons at three secondary schools in Scotland and interviews with teachers at these schools. In the text, cultural and historical context of Scotland related to the education system is mentioned briefly. Then the Scottish education system is explained and Chemistry teaching at secondary schools is described from the point of study plans and requirements. The following chapter contains a description of schools that have been visited, together with reports from selected chemistry lessons. Last chapter then compares various aspects of...

Drugs in Chemical Education
Friedelová, Zuzana ; Klímová, Helena (advisor) ; Teplá, Milada (referee)
Title: Drugs in Secondary education Author: Zuzana Friedelová Department: Department of Teaching and Didactics of Chemistry Supervisor: doc. RNDr. Helena Klímová, CSc. The thesis is focused on drugs in secondary education. The first part of the thesis contains an academic text about drugs, which is designed for secondary school teachers. The second part consists of worksheets which serve as a support material for an excursion to the Pharmaceutical Museum in Kuks. The worksheets were realised in two forms which differ in the number of questions and graphic design. The last part is aimed at laboratory work which may be beneficial when teaching the topic of drugs. The results of the laboratory work were checked in the laboratory of the Department of Teaching and Didactics of Chemistry, Faculty of Science, Charles University in Prague, with each experiment being photographically documented.
