Škopová, Šárka ; Vodáková, Jitka (referee) ; Hanušová, Jaroslava (advisor)
I conceived my dissertation as a study of inhabitants in institutional care. This study is aimed at problems of occurrence of obesity of two selected groups of clients with mental handicap in dependence on their lifestyle and feeding habits. In most of new built social settlements of this type clients are provided with all -day food by professional caterer services. This way is very convenient for organizations with institutional care, because they don't have to carry on a kitchen in their settlement. So, related costs like assurance of staff in three-shift operation, expensive equipment of the kitchen or compliance to sanitary codes, are saved. Here we can ask a question: to what degree is this type of feeding positive for the client who must consume imported food for the whole lifetime? The aim of my dissertation was to depict the way of feeding, consuming habits and general lifestyle of clients of home for men with handicap and to try to find out the reasons why most of the clients suffer from obesity.

Problem Posing
Šilhavá, Marie ; Vondrová, Naďa (advisor) ; Zhouf, Jaroslav (referee)
This diploma thesis concentrates on problem posing from the students' point of view. Problem posing can be either seen as a teaching method which can be used in the class, or it can be used as a tool for researchers or teachers to assess the level of students' understanding of the topic. In my research, I compare three classes, one mathematics specialist class and two generalist classes, in their ability of problem posing. As an assessment tool it seemed that mathemathics specialists were able to pose problems at a higher level of sophistication while the generalist class students could pose more questions but at a lower level of sophistication. Problem posing is an issue that requires further study in the Czech educational context.

Smítková, Ivana ; Morávková Krejčová, Lenka (referee) ; Gillernová, Ilona (advisor)
In the theoretical part of this thesis the aim is to map problems of gifted children focusing on the highly specific field of so called twice-exceptional children, i.e. gifted children with disabilities. Keeping in mind relative newness and poor familiarity it is essential to bring up the theme of the dual exceptionality in a wider context. Therefore the theoretical part begins with defining of related basic terms - intelligence, giftedness, talent and creativity. Chapters concerning phenomena of twice-exceptional children are inserted at the end of the theoretical part after general summarizing information about gifted children - their characteristics, development, identification, education and so on. These chapters which directly refer to studied group of gifted children round off the theoretical part and concurrently form some transition to an empirical part. The empirical part of the thesis comes out from pedagogical and psychological practice. Its object is to present concrete expressions, the link with development and influences of educational approach along the most significant subgroups of twice-exceptional children through selected casuistries. These data should be a practical replenishment and illustration of mapped psychological problems of gifted children that the theoretical part of the thesis...
