Mathematics Problem Solving of Gifted Students
Straková, Jana
The thesis focuses on the ways of thinking and acting of students from the Czech and the Slovak Republic, while solving application problems. On the one hand the thesis offers the identification and categorisation of solving strategies of mathematical problems by gifted students. On the other hand, there is an attempt for the insight into students' thinking processes by means of an in-depth analysis of their written work. I focus on the utilisation of students' mathematical knowledge when solving real-life problems, on the extent to which they apply automatic mathematical methods, on students' reactions to mistakes and unsuccessful solving strategies, their grasping of tasks and their discourse. The data is collected by means of students' written solutions to two mathematical problems, a questionnaire, semi-structured interviews with teachers and observations of their lessons. The data has been analysed through grounded theory and the results are compared with particular results of international comparative researches (PISA and TIMSS). Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Electromyographic Analysis of Selected Muscles during Backhand Throw in Ultimate Frisbee
Straková, Jana ; Pavlů, Dagmar (advisor) ; Pánek, David (referee)
SOUHRN Název: Elektromyografická analýza vybraných svalů během hodu backhand ve hře ultimate frisbee Title: Electromyographic analysis of selected muscles during a backhand throw in ultimate frisbee Cíl práce: Naše práce se zaměřuje na analýzu svalové činnosti během hodu backhand v jedné z nejnovějších kolektivních her- ultimate frisbee. Sleduje míru společné aktivace extenzorů zápěstí - vykonávajících odhození disku a lopatkových svalů (m.trapezius - kraniální a kaudální porce, m.serratus anterior a m.pectoralis major)- dynamických stabilizátorů lopatky. Dále sleduje rozdíly v zapojení svalů během této aktivity ve skupině trénovaných hráčů ultimate. Metoda: Ke snímání aktivity zmíněných svalů jsme použili metodu povrchové elektromyografie. PEMG zachycuje souvislost mezi svalovou aktivitou na akru a kořenovém kloubu horní končetiny během odhodu disku při backhandu. Výsledky: Experiment ukazuje na rozdílnost v aktivaci svalů ve skupině trénovaných hráčů ultimate frisbee, odvíjející se od individuálního vzoru (resp.stylu) pohybového projevu hráče. Při dalším analyzování však vycházejí do popředí dva pohybové modely, odvíjející se od společných znaků či podob získaných vzorů. l.model je charakteristický dominancí m.pectoralis major, ke kterému se ve dvou případech připojuje aktivita m.serratus anterior a v...

Primary and secondary schooling: there is no demand for a bigger change
Straková, Jana ; Basl, Josef ; Veselý, Arnošt
Czechs are rather satisfied with their primary and secondary schooling according to public opinion survey results. The higher the age of respondents, the lower the level of their interest in educational issues. Most of citizens do not feel the need for a change in the field of primary and secondary schools. There are only 36 % supporters of the reform and the perception of a need for a change does not differ in relation to age, education or political pertinence. Students are the only group that feel a markedly stronger need for a change (50 %).
