Past and present of education of paediatric nurses and their attitudes towards their own profession
ZMEŠKALOVÁ, Stanislava
This thesis deals with the history and present state of the education of paediatric nurses and their attitudes towards their own profession. The first objective was to find out information regarding the education in the nursing profession in Bohemia, with a focus on child care, and to create an overview of the education in the profession Paediatric Nurse. The second objective was to find out about the attitudes of paediatric nurses towards their profession. Interviewed were sisters who chose the profession after finishing elementary school and underwent qualifying studies as well as nurses who chose the profession after graduating from a secondary school or university education and achieved their education through specialization studies. The last objective was to compare these two groups and to assess whether there are any differences between them. The theoretical background of the thesis defined basic concepts such as the definition of education, education in nursing, a profession, and attitude towards a profession. Documents related to education since the foundation of nursing education to the present were also used and studied. The chapters on the status of nursing staff and its employment chances focus on the development of the relationship to the profession and shaping attitudes towards it. In the research part of the thesis, the collected information related to education and derived from archival documents, literature, laws and regulations is presented. The results can be used as a basis for creating educational material focused on the history of the field and intended for the education of paediatric nurses to strengthen their identification with the profession. The thesis also presents interviews with in-service paediatric nurses where they express their views on the work in the field and their attitudes towards their profession. The results of the interviews are documented and organized so that it is possible to assess whether there are any differences between these groups. The anticipated differences can be used for further investigation focused on attitudes to the profession. Verified knowledge could then be used for training paediatric nurses aimed at creating desired attitudes towards the profession.

The life and work of Bob Krčil have so far been known from fragments and unsubstantiated legends. The aim of this essayistic piece is to lay out the deeper motives of his personal trajectory, photographic oeuvre, and activities for the Czech exile community. Krčil’s photographic body of work is inseparably connected with his eventful life. The writing of the thesis was preceded by tracking down and putting together Krčil’s fragmented estate, sorting out his correspondence and writings, and interviewing people who knew him personally. By drawing on these materials, the thesis aims to provide insight into the life and motivations of this important figure of Czech exile culture.

Zeya, Pyin Nyar ; JANEČEK, Vít (advisor) ; VOJTĚCHOVSKÝ, Miloš (referee)
No one can control a painter artist’s freely thoughts and ideas and although his paintings were under the high pressure and banned by force, the artistic value of his materials never go down. So that I am writing this paper.
He, San Minn has broken out the mainstream of Burmese painting field, he never made business paintings as well. He keeps his belief on the art of paints and he is always finding for the new way to make his paintings. His materials are very different from other Burmese painter artists’ materials. His style is unique in Burmese paintings. So I can get a chance to study of his style, ideas, ways of thinking and his determination on the art works.
My paper can show a painter artist’s life who grew up under the military rule for 50 years and the situation and history of Burmese painting field. Then not only people who are studying the painting subject, but also other people can know about the subject of Burmese painting and field of artists. I dare say that my paper must be colorful and fruitful.
As a painter artist, it seems that he wants his audience to feel his materials but he rare to show his real life behind the pictures. For me, I can get a chance to know about his real life for my thesis paper.
xxxxxxxxxx
Thesis Statement
My thesis can be useful for everybody who is interested in Burmese contemporary art field.
This is the biggest chance to read about one of the most famous, important and significant artists and art movements of Burma. His paintings are reflecting his journey through over 40 years of censorship, but he was not afraid to tackle political and social issues.
Many of San Minn's art works are based on autobiographical, making sharp social commentary on the popular culture, social values and scenario circumstances where he has lived in.

The Media Influence on Transformation of Democracy
Půlpánová, Barbora ; Pehe, Jiří (advisor) ; Slačálek, Ondřej (referee)
Mass media has always played the key role in democratic process. They are not only the indicator of its right functioning, but also the iniciator. From historical point of view is obvious, that technological progress and changes in the way of informing people were related to the political area. But with the increasing role of media, they changed their position from pure mediators of informations to the main actors of social and political life. The ‚old' media, such as newspapers, radio and television, are therefore partly responsible for commercialization of the public sphere and also for its depolitization. With contribution of the globalization effect on today's world, which causes besides other things the weakening of the nation state, there are only a little of the key democratic aspects left. Some find the solution in the ‚new' media represented by the Internet and social media, which are more interactive so they could get the citizens back to the game. And right in the increase of civic engagement see the theorists the potencial for creating a new democratic order based on high-level participation. KEY WORDS Mass media, Democracy, Public Sphere, Civic Engagement, Internet, Social media, Participative Democracy, Deliberative Democracy

The use of biographical anamnesis in care for clients with dementia in homes for the elderly in České Budějovice.
ČÁPOVÁ, Pavlína
Basic theoretical background: The number of people suffering from dementia is increasing, mainly due to falling birth rate and lengthening of life expectancy. The World Health Organization deals with the issue of caring for clients with dementia in a detailed report. A summary of this report was written by the Institute of Health Information and Statistics of the Czech Republic.In this summary, it is stated that in 2011 the number of clients treated in outpatient care in the Czech Republic climbed to number 14,932 (of which 67% were women) diagnosed with F00 (Alzheimer's disease) and with F01 - F03 (other dementia) to 17,955 (of which almost were women). In 2010, the estimated global number of patients with dementia was 35,6 million. Our society constantly considers a person with dementia to be an uncommunicative client, who is very difficult to be cared (Kopecká, 2012). That is why dementia touches not only the bio-psycho-social, but also the economic field (Wija, 2012). The basis of the psycho-biographical model of care is to change the perspective to the client and to see him or her as a personality with his or her own individual, regional or collective biographical history. With the help of the psycho-biographical model, the care becomes more tolerant, as this model is primarily focused on maintaining and supporting self-care skills and reflecting client's current skills, especially his or her mental ability (Procházková, 2011). For clients with dementia it is essential to find a way to their emotional life, which can be achieved by means of the information from the client´s biography. The knowledge of the client's story of life will also explain his or her needs and requests in care (Kopecká, 2012). The psycho-biographical model improves care for clients with dementia, particularly in the area of individual care and activation of clients. Aims of the thesis: As for the research part of this thesis, two objectives were defined. The first objective was to find out nurses' opinions about the use of biographical history in homes for seniors in České Budějovice. The second one was to discover the influence of biographical history in care for clients in homes for seniors in České Budějovice. These research questions were set to these objectives: What do nurses working in nursing homes for seniors in České Budějovice think of the influence of biographical history in care for clients? Another research question was: In what ways do the nurses working in nursing homes for seniors in České Budějovice think the biographical history improves care for clients? Methodology: The research on the topic of using biographical history in caring for clients with dementia in nursing homes for seniors in České Budějovice was conducted via qualitative investigation. Semi-structured interviews with nurses working in nursing homes for seniors in České Budějovice were chosen for the data collection. Results: The results of the research showed that all respondents found the use of biographical history beneficial in care for clients with dementia, especially in the area of improving individual care, cooperation with the client and his or her family members and obtaining information about the client. All respondents would like to start using biographical history in caring for clients with dementia, although some of them would find the introduction of the model into practice quite problematic. Conclusion: The results of this research could be used to change the approach to care for clients with dementia and to improve the quality of care. This thesis could serve to nurses in charge as a background material for the introduction to this issue and for considering the possibility of introducing biography history in caring for clients with dementia, as all interviewed respondents reported working with clients´ biographies to be beneficial in care for clients with dementia.
