SÝKOROVÁ, Adéla
The submitted Bachelor thesis is called The influence of inclusion on the selfconcept of a child with vision disability and it is formed by two parts, theoretical and empiric. The theoretical part is devided into three chapters, where the first chapter deals with the definition of the term vision disability. Except that it also includes information about the kinds of classification of the vision disability, possible etiology of its origins or division of the disability to congenital and acquired. The chapter also deals with the possibilities of education of people with vision disability defined in the Czech Republic legislation. All this concentrates mainly on the area of integration and inclusion of pupils with vision disability with respect to fundamental specificities of this area. The second chapter is dedicated to selfconcept, its parts and development and it also deals with the period of the older school age which is, considering the structure of the research sample formed by three fourteen years old individuals, key for this thesis. The third part then describes methods and styles used for collecting data. The empiric part is based on a quality research. The research was conducted by deep conversations with the subjects, which were, to gain sufficient amount of information, completed with the conversations with each subject´s mother, analysis of personal documents, some medical reports and reports from special pedagogical center or the Center of vision disability. All the collected information was used to form case studies which were then analysed. According to the implemented research it is possible to say that the selfconcept of a child is significantly influenced by the inclusion. However, if the influence is positive or negative depends on the way of its implementation and readiness of all its participants. This Bachelor thesis should bring insight into the issue of selfconcept of a child with vision disability educated in the form of inclusive education. At the same time it could serve as inspirational material for students interested in this issue and also pedagogues dealing with the inclusive education.

Incorrect body posture is often included among social diseases that are to a great degree caused by lack of exercise and one-sided life style. Generally it is about remaining in static positions and decrease of physically demanding work. The aim of my work is to outline the problem involving children of this particular age range and to evaluate the influence of physiotherapeutic treatment with older school-age patients having incorrect body posture. Theoretical part of the thesis describes correct body postures, muscular chains involved in torso stabilisation, anatomy of deep stabilisation system and incorrect body posture itself. The next chapter deals with older school-age stage from somatic and motor development viewpoint. The last chapter describes physiotherapeutic methods that can be used to treat this health issue. For the empirical part of the paper I chose qualitative research method with two girls of older school-age. Each of them was instructed with a series of set exercises they were to do at home during the whole therapy time approx. 10 weeks. In addition to that, they came in for 9 sessions, during which we focused on their incorrect body posture and other acute problems they had. Short-term and long-term physiotherapeutic plan was proposed based on the anamnesis and kinesiological analysis gained at the beginning and at the end of the therapy. Examples of several exercises aimed at chosen topic are enclosed. This thesis can serve both the professional and the lay public in order to inform them about possibilities of different physiotherapeutic methods that can be used when treating incorrect body posture.

Socialization of sight disabled students from 11 to 15 years of age focusing on specifics of career choices.
SOBOTOVÁ, Kateřina
The presented bachelor thesis deals with the topic of socialization of older school-age children with visual impairment with a focus on specific features of the process to choose their profession The theoretical part consists of four chapters: the first one deals with visual impairment and its classification, the second one describes the developmental period of older school age and specific features of children with visual impairment in that period of time, the third chapter briefly deals with socialization in general and also in respect to visual impairment and the fourth, final chapter of the theoretical part focuses on the system of education and professional training of children, schoolchildren and students with visual impairment, while special attention is paid to career consulting and choice of their future profession. The general objective set for the theoretical part of this bachelor thesis is to map specific features of socialization of older school-aged children with visual impairment in respect to choice of their future profession. The objective of the practical part was to use qualitative research to reflect the current situation in career consulting for children with visual impairment in selected school and consulting establishments and to find out about notions that children with visual impairment have of their future professions and the world of labor. A qualitative method of research, specifically a structured interview technique, was used to meet the objective of the practical part, which was divided into two partial objectives. The interviews were conducted with 6 respondents in total, which included 1 worker of a school establishment, 1 worker of a consulting establishment and 4 schoolchildren with visual impairment aged 13 - 15 years. Questions for the schoolchildren were prepared based on materials used in the theoretical part and they were divided into two sections. The first section of questions concerned basic case history data of the children with visual impairment and their notions about their future profession, while the other section was in form of a didactic test which consisted of questions from the world of labor and its results were supposed to illustrate how well the children understand the world of labor. To meet the other partial objective I have also used a structured interview with a worker of a school establishment and with a teacher with a specific training from a special teaching establishment. The obtained information was processed and it has enabled brief mapping of the current situation in the career consulting for schoolchildren with visual impairment in the South Bohemian region. The qualitative research of adequacy of notions that children with visual impairment have of their future career has brought quite surprising conclusions. The research has shown that, despite severity of visual impairment and the related limitations, the notions of the respondents seemed acceptable and adequate. In respect to career consulting and professional training of those children it is obvious that they are treated in a standard manner and in the same way as healthy children, that no integrated policy is available for them and that the concerned educational establishment does not take into account specific aspects associated with visual impairment.
