The Experience of New Social Media
Farrier, Ellie ; Dudová, Radka (advisor) ; Německý, Marek (referee)
-The Experience of New Social Media Communication with friends and family around the world is something that American expats in Prague have much experience with. Throughout this study, the author has attempted to relate in-depth user experiences with social media to both new media and historical sociology concepts, in order to better understand how social media is used and understood. The phenomenological research conducted focuses on varied user experiences of four Americans expats currently living in Prague, Czech Republic. The experiences explored begin with the respondents' adolescent experiences with social media and the internet, and continue through their current age as young adults. The sources used to interpret and understand these user experiences range from Erving Goffman and Pierre Bourdieu, to Marshall McLuhan and Karl Marx. The author's goal in the study was to test how both historical and new media theories hold true to concrete user experiences with social media and the internet. Keywords: user experience, media, technology, phenomenological research, social media, communication

Opichal, Tomáš ; Beran, Vítězslav (referee) ; Herout, Adam (advisor)
The aim of this diploma thesis is to create a practical solution for individual athletes in the form of a digital mirror, which can become an alternative to observing yourself in an ordinary mirror. The work contains and emphasizes the benefits of a digital mirror. Much of the work is devoted to the transfer of video between various devices for the ability to combine multiple videos on a single screen. The core of the solution is a mobile application for the Android platform, which works in various modes, the choice of which depends on how the application is used. The application was continuously tested with a group of users, resulting in iterative improvements to the application's features and the addition of new features. Furthermore, a web variant of the application was implemented, which increases the possibility of using the digital mirror across different platforms. The results of testing show that this whole solution can be used in the practical training of sports exercises and the application has the potential to connect with various sports.

User Interface of Learning Management Systems Design and Validation of Functional Criteria as Basis for a Partial Evaluation
Ovesleová, Hana ; Štogrová Jedličková, Petra (advisor) ; Slussareff, Michaela (referee) ; Šušol, Jaroslav (referee)
Main topic of this thesis is evaluation of user interfaces of learning management systems (LMS). It is the users and their interaction with the system who are the focus of user interface design within the field of Human Computer Interaction (HCI), and that is why user experience was taken into account for interface evaluation. The aim of the thesis was proposition of function criteria field that reflect users' requirements on the system and that can therefore serve as a basis for partial LMS evaluation. Within the scope of HCI interdisciplinarity, we focused on technical-psychological view (computer - human), complemented by the field that reflects the very purpose of LMS - pedagogical process. We believe that combination of general function criteria, which can be applied to any system, and learning content criteria is crucial for LMS evaluation, together with criteria concerning distribution forms and work methods. Based on defined areas, LMS Unifor courses from 2012- 2014 period of time and LMS Moodle courses from 2015-2017 period of time were evaluated using qualitative and quantitative research methods. The output of the research is a set of function criteria, which we regard to be elementary and suggest to be taken into account when considering a LMS.
