The thesis deals with the perception of the mediation tool from the perspective of primary school principals. The theoretical part focuses on the history of mediation, its use, process and basic principles. It then details the role of the mediator and the specifics of school conflicts and mediation in schools. An insight into the benefits that mediation could bring to the school environment is also an integral part. The specifics of peer mediation are also briefly mentioned. In the practical part, the perspectives of five elementary school principals on the possibility of using mediation in school conflicts are mapped using semi-structured interviews. Their perspectives answer the basic question of how school principals currently perceive and deal with conflicts in schools and whether they see the possibility of using mediation practiced by a school counsellor or an outside mediator.

Children, youth and the virtual world
Sedláková, Lucie ; Valášková Vincejová, Eva (advisor) ; Kropáč, Jiří (referee)
(in English): The virtual world is becoming an increasingly common part of the lives of children and adolescents. This phenomenon does not bring only new possibilities and advantages, but also risks and dangers. The virtual world can offer children entertainment, education and the possibility of communication with people from all over the world. On the other hand, children can be exposed to online bullying, inappropriate content, contact with unknown people and dependence on technology. In this thesis, various aspects of the virtual world and its impact on children are described, including possibilities for prevention and protection of children from online risks. It is important that parents and educators are aware of these risks and know how to provide proper guidance and support to children when using the social networks.

Deposit refund system as a key tool for circular economy
Patka, Vojtěch ; Kropáč, Jiří (referee) ; Gregor, Jiří (advisor)
This bachelor´s thesis deals with the issue of PET packaging, more precisely PET beverage bottles, and with a possible solution to this issue using Deposit Refund System, reffered to as „DRS“. When comparing the current situation of PET beverage bottle management with the set targets and legislation of the EU and the Czech Republic, it can be concluded that it is necessary to adjust the approach to this part of waste management. The modern approach is the approach of so called circular economy, which considers waste as a potential source of material for re-production. DRS is a tool of circular economy which indicates high collection rate of PET beverage bottles in EU, i.e. the proportion of bottles returned and bottles placed on the market. However, DRS is only part of the overall PET beverage bottle management system which requires an efficient processing chain to function properly. The chain is described in detail from returning the used bottle to the production of a new one. A significant benefit in this chapter is the information obtained in interviews with experts from practice and during visits to production lines for PET preforms and PET bottles. The thesis is concluded with a SWOT analysis of DRS in the Czech Republic where the deposit system is likely to be introduced at the beginning of 2026 and its introduction is currently being widely discussed.
