Methodological analysis of religious textbooks
Ležák, Lukáš ; Kolář, Pavel (advisor) ; Váňová, Miroslava (referee)
In the theoretical part of the thesis I introduce the current education legislation related to the subject of religious education. Religion is a part of the educational process and has a fixed position in the curriculum. This subject must be taught by a specialist with a pedagogical and theological training who has the double role of an instructor and a person providing value orientation for his/her pupils. The role of the teacher is not making children "swot" the most important themes, but introducing them to the essential principles and ideas of Christianity. The educational process is thus superior to the actual contents, i.e. instructing children in a Christian way is the concrete objective of every catechist. Orienting children towards a moral life is a very difficult challenge. A number of motivational elements and educational tools can facilitate the process of instruction. Arguably, the single most important tool since the introduction of comprehensive educational systems has been the textbook. Textbooks have been the subject of research and this research has by now become an established scholarly discipline. The theoretical part informs about the structure of textbooks, their functions and practical use. An essential chapter of the thesis is the didactic analysis of selected textbooks, in...

Interdisciplinary Access to Teaching Science at Vocational Schools with Nonchemical Specialization
Kuželová, Nikola ; Rusek, Martin (advisor) ; Beneš, Pavel (referee)
Implementation of school educational programmes brought many changes, particularly at secondary schools in the Czech Republic. One of them is the inclusion of education into the field of natural sciences in many fields of secondary vocational schools, where it was previously missing. This brought some specifics and problems. Some schools are coping with the current situation by implementing an integrated science course. A part of this bachelor thesis is focused on the current state of science teaching in the Czech Republic. The main contribution of this thesis are the results of the content analysis of educational programmes at schools, where the integrated science course is taught. Special attention was paid to the actual implementation of the course, number of hours, general objectives and educational strategies. Another part of this thesis contains the results of a research on teachers' approach to teaching chemistry at secondary vocational schools and the results of a structured interview with a teacher of the integrated science course. The approach to the integration of science courses and teachers' attitudes towards this concept of teaching is evaluated as well.
