Fantasy as a Resource for Drama Education Lesson
Zelená, Markéta ; MARUŠÁK, Radek (advisor) ; ULRYCHOVÁ, Irina (referee)
This thesis focuses on the genre of fantasy and its potential as a resource in drama education, exploring it both theoretically on basis of academic sources as well as practically by means of several self-constructed individual lesson plans aimed at internal group development. These lesson plans are based on three works of fiction: J. R. R. Tolkien's The Hobbit, or There and Back Again, J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter series and N. Gaiman's Stardust. All of the drama lessons presented in the paper are graded according to their target participants' age, difficulty levels of the drama methods they comprise and/or degree of the particular lesson's interconnectedness with the original story. Additionally, each of the lessons is written with different objectives in mind, focusing predominantly on aims within the scope of drama education and personal and social education, as well as those of literature study. The lesson plans were implemented in drama lessons with elementary school pupils of varying ages (6-14 years) and evaluated in the form of detailed written reflections.

Structured drama Bran
Svobodová, Barbora ; MARUŠÁK, Radek (advisor) ; ULRYCHOVÁ, Irina (referee)
In this thesis I would like to describe the planning, realization and reflection of a two two-day structured drama workshops named Bran. I put those into practice with two different groups. I would like to discuss the processing of literature, the planning of the activities and practice based on the objectives set, the development of the mentioned realisation and its conclusions. Furthermore I would like to focus on drawing a comparison between the two workshops because of the difference between the average age of the two groups involved, which was exactly 10 years. The younger group of players has an aríthmetic mean of 13,5 years of age, the older group of 23,5 years of age.

My thesis is based on the subject of the impact of theatrical studies and stage performance on young people. In the first part of my thesis I will cover the theory around the genuine and natural ability in young people to perform. The second part of my thesis begins with the details of my research, followed by a description of the preparatory work carried out with my pupils involved in performing, along with audience members and a selection of teachers involved in the field of theatre studies and education. Within my thesis I have tried to capture the journey taken by pupils from my initial meeting within them through to and including their performance. I have also attempted to capture and evidence the moments during their journey where creativity and energy have been very apparent. In addition I have also highlighted what in my view may be some of the prerequisites to enable creativity and expression to take place. I will also evidence the different perspectives of this study and provide comparison within this.

Maděryč, Vojtěch ; Ulrychová, Irina (advisor) ; Martínková, Nina (referee)
The thesis deals with the dramatic acting of children in the context of drama in education. It maps different types of working in different types of drama and it focuses on the Literary-Dramatic Department of the Basic School of Arts where the esthetic and artistic influence on children is an inevitable part of the educational process. One of the ways to reach the dramatic and esthetic goals is the education through acting. As the methodological basis of children´s acting is generally considered the Stanislavski´s system respecting the specifics of children development. The thesis presents Michael Chekhov´s techniques, developing the Stanislavski´s system, and the Jerzy Grotowski´s techniques as the possibilities of acting methodology and as an inspiration when working with children on the development of their acting skills. Finally, the Václav Martinec´s acting methodology is mentioned as a possible eclectic approach of acting education.
