Educational board game about Terrain vague
Balcaříková, Ivana ; Strouhal, Jonáš (referee) ; Skála, Jiří (advisor)
This diploma thesis is concerned with the mediation of feelings, moods, functions, and movements of varied actors in the environment of terrain vague — wastegrounds. I am trying to hand over this experience with the help of a tabletop game (TTRPG), in which the player has the opportunity to wander around different types of landscapes such as abandoned playgrounds, old factories, allotments, or unfunctional kid´s camps. This is a working prototype of a board game, which is at this moment concerned mainly with the character of a child. Terrain vague presents the dark side of cities, different from the common social structures, without the supervision of authority and full of new potential for change and in our case mainly for the game. The nature of this character sets itself a task to thematize terrain vague as a place created for adventure, the game as well as a key element in creating the autonomy and independence for children.

World: Anything bad happens. Internet: Let’s make a meme of it!
Balcaříková, Ivana ; Heřmanová,, Marie (referee) ; Kubíková, Zuzana (advisor)
So called Generation Z was born between the years 1995 and 2012. They came into The World when The Internet was already in full bloom. Gen Z and Internet are inseparable. It's their natural habitat. They move across the internet waters skillfully without any problem and at all times. The feeds of Gen Z kids are constantly filled with new information, themes, phenomenon, trends, memes. That makes the nature of the whole generation rather nihilistic and in surrender to the constant shit storm which they have to deal with every day. The biggest weapon of the Gen Z is undoubtedly their specific kind of humor. Memes, references, reaction videos are their biggest coping mechanism. These things can be seen all through their normal day to day life. This format however gives plenty of space to individual creators to express their frustration with The World's situation which they get exposed to on a daily basis. It's only natural for them to be interested and engage in bigger themes such as racism, refugee crisis, climate change or LBTQIA+ problems. Unlike their previous generations, Gen Z uses memes and humor to cope. This Bachelor theses focuses on mapping the content that through specific meme format on Tiktok explores the big themes of today's day and age. Do these short clips have any potential informative or educational value or are they just sometimes funny, cool or offensive videos that teens make to keep up with the trends. If it is so, is it problematic?
