The Experiential Education and Its Implementation with Physically Handicapped People
PLOJHAROVÁ, Kateřina
The topic of my bachelor degree thesis was the experience-based learning and its implementation for persons with physical disabilities. In the theoretical part of my bachelor degree thesis I focused on the history of physical handicaps in Bohemia, on health and physical disabilities, on education and rights of persons with physical disabilities, experience-based learning and its elements and on non-governmental non-for-profit organizations. In the practical part of my bachelor degree thesis I focused on the definition of the objectives, methods and results. The first objective of the practical part was to map the offer and realization of free-time activities for people with disabilities in the South Bohemian region. The second objective was to inquire selected non-governmental non-for-profit organizations whether they provide any experience-based activities. The method of the research was a quantitative survey using the method of inquiry with a questionnaire developed specifically for the purpose. The survey was performed in March and April 2011 in non-governmental non-for-profit organizations that deal with free-time activities of persons with physical disabilities in the South Bohemian region. The total number of non-governmental non-for-profit organizations we approached was 15 and the number willing to participate was 8. The results of the survey have shown that five out of the eight non-governmental non-for-profit organizations realize free-time activities for persons with physical disabilities, while one of them performs such activities only marginally and on a one-off basis, two organizations deal with a different kinds of disabilities and one deals with consulting. Free-time activities that focus on experience-based learning are realized by DC ADRA, the 1st center for people with disabilities South Bohemia, Family Center Rozárka and the Association Handicapped Child. The set objectives have been achieved. The discussion contains an analysis of the results and a comparison of the results with the theory. The conclusions summarize the entire bachelor degree thesis. The thesis presents an integrated overview of non-governmental non-for-profit organizations in the South Bohemian region that work with person with physical disabilities and realize activities focusing on experiences.

Processing, organization and check integrative of the day for men with handicap (action "Together it prove").
SUCHAN, Radek
During my life and subsequently during my studies in various subjects I have met with terms as mental handicapped, mental disabled, socialization. There were one day events with titles {\clqq}Together it prove``, during first and second class. When I organized these meetings with the other people I had an idea to create a model or sample event for everybody, who wants to do something exceptional or interesting for mental handicapped people. In the course of integration days {\clqq}Together it prove`` I realized, how reciprocal relation it is. By these meetings, we non-handicapped people realize, how easy are our ordinary worries and what we can learn from our handicapped citizens.

Working possibilities of physically handicapped persons in locality Prague
MATĚJKOVÁ, Kateřina
My thesis focuses on the possibility of employing handicapped people in the Prague region. My partial goal was to identify supporting and risk factors that affect the employment of these people and describe their experience with job opportunities. In the theoretical portion of my thesis, I describe the most common types of disabilities, the types of education with a vocational focus and supportive means for employing these people. The final part of the theoretical portion is dedicated to the importance of work to a handicapped person and the causes of its marginalisation. The practical portion of my thesis is based on case studies. The survey group was comprised of four handicapped people who have lived and worked in the Prague Region on a long-term basis. Data was obtained via semi-structured in-depth interviews that took place in Prague during March. The other portion of my research was a secondary analysis of data on economic activities of handicapped people, mainly obtained from the Czech Statistical Office. The results show that handicapped people have sufficient knowledge of the advantages they bring to potential employers and do not hesitate to point them out during job interviews. On the other hand, the level of knowledge of alternative job opportunities is greater in handicapped people under 30. Factors that would help a prospective handicapped candidate be offered a job include a higher degree of education and greater language skills, programmes focused on employing handicapped people, properly selected jobs and education in common types of schools. The risk factors of hiring a handicapped person include a slow work pace and insufficient knowledge by employers and co-workers, a lack of handicapped access on public transportation and in buildings, long-term therapy stays in health spas, weather affecting the ability to get to work and the diminished opportunities for self-fulfilment and growth on the secondary labour market.

JIRÁSKOVÁ, Eva
The goal of this paper is to show the basic survey of the compensation aid tools that are good and a sometimes necessary for a good development of the handicapped child, for his better social integration and for the well function of his family. I also wanted to present the possibilities of financial support from health insurance companies, social- and health department and last, but not least the support of nonprofit organizations. The survey shows that parents does not have enough information about gathering financial support for compensational instruments for physically handicapped children. We can also mention that the information receive mainly from their friends, parents of handicapped children and in Southern Bohemia even thanks to Chilren Centre called ``ARPIDA``, which provides the complex care especially to children with corporal and combined handicap. It also follows that parents would thank to any other chance about possibilities of financing compensational instruments by means of doctors, informational materials, etc.
