Spatiotemporal analysis of spreading of influenza epidemic in Czechia
Švábová, Lea ; Netrdová, Pavlína (advisor) ; Šídlo, Luděk (referee)
Influenza is accompanying humans for centuries and for centuries people are dying in hundreds. Every year there is seasonal influenza epidemy, which is caused by common circling influenza viruses in which happened small changes. Every 10-20 years is discovered completely new influenza virus subtype which is created by big genetical changes. Most affected areas are poor states in Asia or in different countries with insufficient hygiene or unavailable medical care, these countries also have huge mortality. Czech Republic wasn't independent for many centuries and describing historical evolution of this disease is very complicated, but we have few data form Spanish influenza time. Influenza and other acute or chronical respiratory are reported, so it is possible to create some demographic or statistical analysis. Unfortunately, in Czech Republic only 50-55 % of all cases are reported. This work is devoted to spatiotemporal analysis of influenza in Czechia and is done through statistical analysis like corelation analysis or time series analysis that are examining spatiotemporal way of the spread of the virus. Goals of this thesis with the help of these methods are to answer questions about questions concerning the spatiotemporal patterns of influenza spread, therefore what the repeatability of...

Current Trends in Quantitative Analysis of Geographical Data: Potentialities and Limitations of Spatial Data Analysis
Netrdová, Pavlína
of the Ph.D. Thesis Netrdová, P.: Current trends in quantitative analysis of geographical data: potentialities and limitations of spatial analysis The thesis is a contribution to the discussion about the potentialities of the quantitative approach in geography. It follows the current trends in quantitative analysis of geographical data, specifically spatial analysis, particularly from the perspective of changes in the concept and character of applied methods and their possible contribution in geographical research. Due to the research focus of the author, the entire work is focused primarily on the issue of using quantitative methods in terms of social geography. Attention is focused particularly on statistically spatial analyses, which are the most widely used techniques in social geography, with a wide range of possible applications. One of the goals of this work is to bring the current development in quantitative geography closer to the Czech academic community, and thus contribute to the increased awareness of the potentialities of the application of quantitative methods and spatial analyses in geographical research. Methodological problems in the analysis of spatial data, theoretical changes in the concept of quantitative analysis and also newly emerging quantitative methods have not so far...

Learning tasks in mathematics and geography: comparison based on an analysis of textbooks for the second level of primary school
Kotýnková, Natálie ; Netrdová, Pavlína (advisor) ; Halas, Zdeněk (referee)
The presented bachelor thesis deals with the learning tasks in terms of their importance and functioning while teaching at the level of intended curriculum. Specifically, the work is focused on learning tasks of two subjects, mathematics and geography, which are compared in terms of the nature of the learning tasks used. The analytical part of the work is based on a detailed analysis of learning tasks always in one set of mathematics and geography textbooks for the second level of primary school. The tasks are divided into six groups based on own taxonomy, which was created by a combination of known taxonomies according to Bloom and Tollinger. The aim of this bachelor thesis is both to identify the importance and contribution of learning tasks in teaching and specifically their potential in two pursued subjects and also to compare and critically assess the nature of learning tasks in mathematics and geography textbooks. Key words: learning tasks, analysis of textbooks, taxonomy, mathematics, geography

Migration flows in Czech rural area since the 1990s: the analysis of structure and development
Zalubil, Jakub ; Netrdová, Pavlína (advisor) ; Čermák, Zdeněk (referee)
1 Abstract The submitted diploma thesis evaluates the migration movements of the population in the rural area of the Czech Republic in the period 1992 and 2018. The aim of the work is to evaluate the modern development of internal migration of rural settlements in terms of the size of migration flows and to determine the main migration directions to and from the Czech countryside. The evaluation of the size and structure of migration flows was based on the analysis of data from a non-public database on internal migration, which contains almost six million cases of intra-state migration for the given period. These data were first aggregated on the basis of the affiliation of the municipality of eviction and the municipality of immigration to rural areas of the administrative districts of municipalities with an authorized municipal office. The results, which are presented in graphical and map form, show that the countryside is gaining population through internal migration. The results of the analysis showed that the situation is very diversed. The highest rates of migration indicators are reported by defined rural administrative districts of municipalities with an authorized municipal office in the vicinity of large cities, primarily Prague, and the lowest in border areas. Based on the performed analyses of...

European Regions as an Example of the Relationship between Human, Institutional and Social Capital and Economic Performance
Chudý, Vít ; Netrdová, Pavlína (advisor) ; Pileček, Jan (referee)
This thesis is focused on the description and assessment of the relationships between human, institutional and social capital and the assessment of the effects of capital types on economic performance. After the operationalization of capital types and economic performance that was based on literature research, the relationships were analysed using the example of European regions (specifically NUTS 2). The analysis is focused on the regional differentiation of capital types and economic maturity. It also monitors the relationships between capital types and economic performance. This thesis is based on the latest statistical data from offices and surveys that deal with the quality of the institutional environment or the characteristics of social capital. The characteristics of capital types are shown in maps. For the statistical data analysis, we used factor, correlation and regressive analysis. Keywords: human, social and institutional capital, economic performance, GDP per capita, regional differentiation, European regions NUTS 2

Delimitation and mapping of catchment areas of primary schools: a case study of the Prague 3 Municipal District
Úlehla, Vojtěch ; Netrdová, Pavlína (advisor) ; Matoušek, Roman (referee)
The bachelor thesis was aimed at providing an overview on various principles and consequences of delimitation of catchment areas of primary schools (CAPS) in Czechia in theory and in practice. The problem is presented on an example of the territory of Prague 3 Municipal District. The non-specific aim of the thesis is to describe legal principles of delimitation of CAPS, a geographic perspective of delimitation of CAPS, how the delimitation of CAPS is associated with the topic of education inequality and how CAPS are in effect delimited by responsible civil servants. The specific aim is to study specifics and development of the territory of Prague 3 Municipal District and to characterise particular primary schools in the city district with respect to a development of a number of pupils in schools. A current delimitation of CAPS and a development of CAPS from 1997 to the present is mapped, analysed and discussed. The analysis is supplemented with information provided by the civil servants of Prague 3 Municipal District. Keywords: catchment area, geography of education, primary school, Prague 3

Interdisciplinary relations between mathematics and geography at grammar school: implemented curriculum
Vandrovcová, Jana ; Netrdová, Pavlína (advisor) ; Havelková, Lenka (referee)
This diploma thesis deals with the relations between mathematics and geography in teaching at grammar school at implemented curriculum level. In theoretical part it deals with conceptions of teaching which support connection of educational content of individual subjects as well as general possibilities for realization interdisciplinary relations of mathematics or geography. There are also concrete interdisciplinary relations between mathematics and geography presented and there are identified main reasons why the developing of connection berween the mentioned subjects is important. Problems of the realization interdisciplinary relations at teaching conducts a survey by halfstructured interview with mathematics teachers. Their answers provide the view of realized curriculum and they uncover opportunities and limitations the tachers of mathematics at level of interdisciplinary connection deals with in practice. There are mainly teachers with mathematics and geography qualification, who can give their opinion on relations of these two subjects. There were prepared six lessons in this diploma thesis focused on active use of interdisciplinary relations of mathematics and geography. Then the autor taught it at grammar school and it made practical review of possibilities and restrictions of such teaching....

Delimitation of catchment areas for elementary schools in Czechia: case study of cities Děčín and Teplice
Houšková, Zuzana ; Netrdová, Pavlína (advisor) ; Šifta, Miroslav (referee)
This bachelor thesis focuses on the problem of creating school catchment areas in Czechia. The aim is to present and discuss the topic of defining the school catchment areas from legal, geographical and sociological view. School catchment areas should guarantee acceptance to school near home for all children in Czechia. However in some cases they can lead to segregation of ethnical or social minorities. Cities Děčín and Teplice have been chosen as case studies. Four school decrees from past 20 years have been selected from each city and maps have been created based on these. In the decrees, possible errors were found likely caused by poor wording or inadvertently introduced by the officials. The work also includes online maps that have been created to simplify the detection of errors in city decrees. My research shows that school catchment areas are created in a similar ways in both cities, and the boundaries of catchment areas are predominantly the boundaries of urban areas, traffic communications, or natural barriers. Keywords: catchment area, elementary school, Czechia
