Faults and errors in teatching French as a foreign language in Czech grammar schools
Eiblová, Marie ; Klinka, Tomáš (advisor) ; Suková Vychopňová, Kateřina (referee)
The diploma thesis is a reflection on the concept of error; it defines error in regard to language norm and language usage. It deals with errors committed by high school students. In addition, it seeks to uncover at least some of the causes why and how the error occurs, and it focuses on the influence of interference. It examines whether the phenomena that do not occur in Czech, are actually more difficult to understand and then to use in practical language. In the theoretical part the work also treats the issue of fault assessment, answers the critical questions in this area and summarizes some recommendations to the motivational and constructive evaluation that leads to understanding of the problem, and thus eliminating errors. In the practical part, it introduces the text which served as a basis for the research. In addition to the translation, students were also asked questions about the style of teaching, learning, assessment and their motivation for the studying French. Conclusions drawn from both the translations and the interviews are presented at the end of work. Keywords: error, grammar, meaning, speaker, interference, evaluation, learning styles, motivation, translation, written production

Common mistakes Czech students make in English and their Remedial Treatment
Ganev, Ondřej ; Dvořák, Bohuslav (advisor) ; Hofmannová, Marie (referee)
Common mistakes Czech students make in English represent the main topic of the presented master thesis. The theoretical part mainly deals with the presentation of various TEFL (Teaching English as Foreign Language) methods. Moreover, they are discussed from several perspectives, including techniques, strategies and principles while using the particular method, the role of the teacher, his or her relationship with students, and especially the response to errors within each of the methods. The purpose of presenting TEFL methods is to show also the connection between mistakes and methods themselves. Concerning the area of mistakes and their corrections, we focus on the classification of mistakes and their division. The practical part is based on various illustrations of mistakes from students' writing assignments. These mistakes are divided into four major classes, including grammar, spelling, wrong word and word order. The thesis also deals with the remedial treatment which may hopefully reduce the number of possible mistakes. The aim of the thesis is to compare the level of students' English language knowledge at the Secondary School of Tourism in Prague where the author works as an English teacher.

The Influence of the Attractiveness of Context of a Mathematical Word Problem on Performance and Solving Processes
Havlíčková, Radka ; Jirotková, Darina (advisor) ; Novotná, Jarmila (referee) ; Hošpesová, Alena (referee)
This thesis focuses on to word problems and elementary school pupils. Research on mathematical word problems suggests that differences in success are not only due to different levels of pupils' cognitive abilities but that their motivation plays a role, too. Therefore, in this study, I focused on the context of word problem as a potential source of situational interest, which may affect the quality of pupils' cognitive function in the short term or permanently. I used my participation in a broader quantitatively oriented research on variables influencing the difficulty of word problems and using its methodology, I investigated the influence of different types of contexts on pupils' success in solving the problems. The examined aspect of context was attractiveness - the question was whether pupils would be more successful in solving word problems with elements of fairy tale, science fiction or humour than in similar problems with the same structure but with a neutral context. Pupils of the 3rd to 6th grades of primary school (n = 2 092) were divided into two groups of a comparable ability and each was presented with one of the variants - attractive or neutral. To evaluate the results quantitatively, the Item Response Theory was used allowed us to determine the difficulty of the problem depending on...

Dealing with errors while teaching French as a foreign language with regard to speaking
Komárková, Kristýna ; Klinka, Tomáš (advisor) ; Nováková, Sylva (referee)
Kristýna Komárková ABSTRACT The diploma thesis deals with dealing with errors while teaching French as a foreign language with regard to speaking. The first part of the thesis contains the definition of the term error, its conception within modern teaching methods, classification of errors and most common causes of their occurrence. Corrective strategies analysis and particularities of dealing with errors within spoken language can also be found within the theoretical part of the thesis. Those theoretical findings are then applied in the practical part of the thesis which contains two case studies that are subject of the analysis of the corrective strategies used in French language classes at primary school. The practical part continues with a survey conducted between both teachers and pupils. The questionnaire is designed in order that it is possible to compare the views of pupils and teachers on the issue of error correction in the process of teaching and learning foreign languages. In particular, teachers are asked about the procedure and techniques they apply while they are dealing with pupils' errors, while questions for pupils focus more on their feelings that the error and error correction arise in themselves. The aim of the thesis was to compare teachers' and pupils' opinions on dealing with...

Pupils' problem solving strategies at lower and upper secondary level
Hoffmann, Jan ; Novotná, Jarmila (advisor) ; Mošna, František (referee)
This thesis Pupils' problem solving strategies at lower and upper secondary level brings a focus on the issue outlined by the name. At the same time, it focuses on pupils' strategies to solve problems that are closely related to information literacy. At first I define basic terms for the area of word problems. Consecutively I focus on the theoretical knowledge from the area of problem solving strategies themselves. The content of the experimental part of the thesis is the survey of pupils' solutions of eight selected tasks, by which I was looking for an answer of the three basic questions of this thesis. My experiment is divided into two branches. The first branch of the experiment took place at the lower level of the multi-year grammar schools. The second branch of the experiment took place at the higher grade of the multi-year grammar schools and, to a small extent, at the secondary school. The theoretical part contains views of various authors on issue of problems and word problems. I present and compare these individual approaches. The result is the demarcation of the terms needed for the experimental part of the work. The main aim of the experimental part of the thesis is to find the answers of three basic questions of this thesis, where I was using data from lower and higher grades of...
