Didactic games and their inclusion to physics teaching at basic school
PÍŠA, Adam
The bachelor's thesis entitled "Didactic games and their inclusion in the teaching of physics at elementary school" describes the possibility of educating students in selected physics lessons in a playful way. The work focuses mainly on the refreshment of basic knowledge of individual physical disciplines, necessary for a proper understanding of the subject matter in secondary schools. In the first part we will focus on the theoretical description of games, its concept, important aspects and features. Next, a list of used parts of physics will be presented with a brief commentary on why this part was selected and which specific topics will appear in the second part. The second part contains examples of individual didactic games with a physical theme, in which the physical disciplines described above are used. The last game is a "roleplaying game", which is intended for future graduates of elementary schools as a playful form of repetition of physical knowledge acquired during physics classes. Finally, the process of creating this work, the expected results and a summary of the presented opinions will be evaluated.

Skeletal Animations Library
Maliňák, Jan ; Chlubna, Tomáš (referee) ; Vlnas, Michal (advisor)
Main objective of this thesis is designing a physical based solution to generating skeletal animations. This allows both micro adjustments of animation in realtime and dynamic generation of character's movement without previous preparation of animation for given specific purpose. Created module for Unity game engine uses angular velocity to rotate bones of skeleton, rather than evaluating animation curve for specific time. The calculation is done by generating muscle forces, calculating torque and applying resulting angular acceleration of each bone. After specifying a target in one of its forms, the animating system will start moving with linked skeleton and will try to approach given target.

French Evolutionism in the Light of Modern Science
Šlégr, Pavel ; Hogenová, Anna (advisor) ; Sobotka, Milan (referee) ; Plašienková, Zlatica (referee)
French Evolucionism in the Light of Modern Science Author: Pavel Šlégr This work deals especially on comparasion of thinking of two French thinkers-christian evolutionists of sekond half of 19th century and first half of 20th century: Henri Bergson and Perre Teilhard de Chardin. My comparision ges on following thematice areas: biografy of both thinkers, time and space, overcoming mechanicism, causaility and teleology, sources, direction and structure of evolution, evolutionism of 19th and 20th century. Next part of this work is devoted to undesrtanding man in work of both thinkers. This work deals also contemporary evolutionism, based especially on statistical methods of work with genes and their models. This work deals also modern physical and cosmological theories and brings them to connection with works of Bergson and Teilhard.

Chemistry - Physics relatives in the Science education
Konečný, Martin ; Čtrnáctová, Hana (advisor) ; Teplá, Milada (referee)
Title: Chemistry - Physics Relatives in the Science Education Department: Department of Teaching and Didactics of Chemistry Abstract (in English): Within the master's degree thesis was conducted a literary research. Overview of interdisciplinary relatives in science education was done based on this research. The interdisciplinary relatives are described in the work as well as a historical development of integrated science education in the Czech Republic and in Europe. Three teaching tasks were created for use in science lessons with the following topics: The universe evolution and formation of elements, Luminescence, and The substance composition. Teaching tasks can be used during the class work or as a material for talented students and have both theoretical and practical parts. The teaching tasks were evaluated by teachers who used them during their chemistry lessons. The final part of the master thesis is a survey, in which teachers answered the questions concerning the establishing of new conference called "Chemistry Teachers' Inventions Fair" for secondary school and high school teachers. Keywords: interdisciplinary relatives, physics, chemistry, science eduaction, integrated teaching

Science experiments during free-time activities of school-aged children
Moulisová, Marie ; Čapek Adamec, Martin (advisor) ; Kropáčková, Jana (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with the ways in which science (chemistry, physics, biology) and other related disciplines can be used in primary school children's leisure time activities. It presents a number of practical proposals as for how to make these subjects more accessible in an attractive way. The theoretical part briefly describes the individual subjects in question, a range of leisure-time facilities suitable for the intended activities, and specifies the characteristics of preschool children. The practical part brings a numer of possible experiments in the given subjects, together with their description and practical implementation. The proposals for experiments and activities are based on everyday life. The aim of this thesis is to make these often not fully understood everyday life situation accessible to children in an interesting and playful way. The final reflection is aimed at the assessment of the suitability of the individual proposals, and their possible pitfalls and improvements.
