Saifrtová, Barbora ; Miskolczi, Martina (advisor) ; Krebs, Vojtěch (referee)
This thesis aims to analyse fertility and natality in Czech countries during and after the Second world war. It introduces historical background, overview of natality policies and analysis of basic demographic indicators (fertility, natality, mortality, life expectancy, marriage rate and average age of mother at birth) in the period of 1930 - 1955. The analysis shows that Czech population did not behave standardly during the war. Since Czech men did not participate in the war and young people often married to avoid working in Germany, increasing natality during the occupation is typical for Czech countries. The consequence of high marriage rate was high fertility, which has a year delay to marriage rate. The part of this thesis compares teritories of Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia (only Czech population) and Sudetenland (occupied frontier regions, mainly German population). Marriage rate, natality and rate of nature increase were higher in Sudetenland only till 1941. Since that, natality was higher in the protectorate. High decrease of natality in Sudetenland was caused by German men leaving to war.

This thesis deals with the women-graduates, their working aspirations and their conception of a family life. In the theoretical part the university education of Czech women is described, in terms of historical development and also and the current situation of the Czech universities, in terms of number of women studying there. In the next part the attention is paid to the women's level of education aspirations and their motivation for studying. Students usually finish their education during the period of life, which is referred to as a young adulthood according to the evolutionary psychology. The thesis deals with the transition of young people into adulthood and describes the specifics of this period, from the perspective of women. Young people in particular enter into their working life, accept their new job role and become independent. Young woman is also expected to become mother after finishing her education. Today's young women must solve the dilemma. They have to decide for their work or for their maternal role. Usually they try to harmonize them. In the practical section the opinions of four young women - graduates are presented. Their attitudes to this life period were found out by means of the depth interview. Women mainly described the period of the university study and their motivation for studying. The other topics of the interview was the moment of graduation and their entry into working life. Finally the process of achieving independence from parents was found out, also the conception of establishing their own families, their maternal role and the idea about coordination this role with their job aspirations.

The Burn Out Syndrome with Nurses and Its Prevention The aim of my graduation work was to give a description of the burn out syndrome and to identify preventive measures used in the monitored hospital wards. In the theoretical part of my paper I have described the personality in general and tried to explaine the burn out syndrome, its causes and the way it might be diagnosed. In the following part I have dealt with the personality of a nurse, the prophylaxis in the nursing profession, the communication skills and coping with stress. In the practical part I have presented a field research carried out in the hospital in Liberec. I have use original questionnaires which were answered in the following wards: an intensive care unit, an outpatient department and a standard ward. It is true that the results of the survey are not explicit but nevertheless a certain favourable relationship between superiors and nurses has been found. The work of nurses in the intensive care unit is very demanding and even more stressful for young nurses. The burn out syndrome has not been properly followed up in all cases. Prophylaxis is the most important thing in this Arespect.

The practical part of the thesis is an intimate and inner parent album, which is based on illustration of spoken word. It replaces the ordinary photo album, which is for a long time a social necessity of every young mother.

They expressively displays completely new experience, which the mother has to go through for the very first time - mood swings, strange tastes, childbirth, but also the moment of conception. Work replaces the mentioned photo album and was formed as a family heirloom. Therefore, considerable attention has been paid to the external processing of the album.

CLIL in theory and practice
Gablasová, Dana ; Malá, Markéta (referee) ; Mothejzíková, Jarmila (advisor)
With the natural globalisation processes underway, various forms of bilingual (or multilingual) education have enjoyed growing attention. In Europe, with the strengthening political and cultural integration, the innovations in language education are in focus of not only language professionals but also of political decision-makers. The practical need to enhance the 'plurilingualism' of the EU citizens, an intention formulated in the White Paper on Education and Training from 1995, can be seen as a clear impetus for the increased interest in the foreign language curriculum. The Paper proposed that, gradually, each European citizen should be able to use also two community languages other than his/her mother tongue (known as the "MT+2" plan) (White Paper on Education and Training, 1995). This aspiration also reflects the shift in understanding of knowledge of more than one language as a privilege of the elites (be it economical, intellectual or other elites) to be received at special schools or via special programmes. Instead, this education should extend to include ordinary citizens. However, it could be argued "that contemporary languages education has often failed to provide platforms for learning which suit a broad range of people, young and older" (Marsh, 2003: 3). As a result, the traditional approach to...
