Parent's criteria for the choice of a kindergarten
Köksal, Miroslava ; Valenta, Josef (advisor) ; Vítečková, Michaela (referee)
The thesis is a theoretical and empirical. The theoretical part is aimed at pre-school age children, what is for children in this age characteristics, their needs, development specifics. With this would be closely linked to parents' demands for a suitable nursery school for their child. How to kindergarten with their parents should look to meet you, how to work with their children. There are laws and regulations that are standard for pre-school education, which every school must follow and the general educational program for pre-education curriculum, which outlines the state requirements for pre-school education. Finally, a list of existing types of nursery schools, what is their intention, in what is typical and what is different from others. In the empirical part the survey focused on parental selection criteria for nursery schools enriched by individual interview of one of the parents and interviews with the director of nursery school. Here's how they see the situation of those with this issue in daily contact. At the very end of the work is an objective summary and interpretation of data and made its findings. The main aim of the thesis is to find out whether parents set their own criteria for the choice of kindergarten and also defines/describes which criteria are the most important, how the perfect...

Some problems in translating modal verbs structures from German to Czech
Kratochvílová, Jana ; Dovalil, Vít (advisor) ; Kloudová, Věra (referee)
The subject matter of this diploma thesis is linguistic modality in German with focus on certain problems in translating modal verbs structures from German to Czech. In the theoretical part, the concept of modality as well as the differentiation of modal field is elucidated. Besides the usually used classification of subjective and objective modality, a more precise structure is applied, which is that of epistemic and non-epistemic modality. In addition, in the field of non-epistemic modality, two other sub-types are distinguished according to whether a speaker s evaluation is present or not. The practical part methodologically relies on concrete data such as modal verbs used with perfect infinitive or modal verbs in past perfect tense (Plusquamperfekt) and their translations from German to Czech. Based on selected examples, the aim of this thesis is to emphasize the main differences between Czech and German modality and to underline their essential significance to the translation accuracy.

Evaluation of e-learning in a banking institution
Vrabcová, Jana ; Němec, Otakar (advisor) ; Recmanová, Elena (referee)
This Master's Thesis deals with the evaluation of e-learning in a banking institution operating in the Czech market. The introduction of e-learning in a banking institution managed to reduce the educational costs. However, the pedagogical effectiveness has not been investigated yet. The aim of this Master's Thesis was to determine whether employees of a banking institution perceive e-learning as an effective method of training and determinate on the basis of their acquired knowledge whether e-learning is an effective method of knowledge transfer. The e-learning effectiveness was investigated using a combination of subjective (questionnaire) and objective (testing) methods of evaluation on 118 employees. The study indicated that employees consider e-learning as an effective learning method and that they acquired a high level of knowledge. However the questionnaire and testing revealed several weaknesses of the current e-learning system, primarily the lack of time for training through e-learning courses and employees cheating during the e-learning course completion. The solution to the mentioned weaknesses could be, shortening, e-learning courses, plus adding a final test (at the end of e-learning courses that currently do not have one), limiting the number of their repetition and ensuring their higher difficulty levels.

Modelování úniku a disperze nebezpečného plynu
Jaňour, Zbyněk ; Bezpalcová, Klára ; Erhart, Jakub ; Kellnerová, Radka ; Šeděnková, Hana
Liquefied industrial gases and liquefied energy gases are transported, stored and used in steadily increasing amounts.Since the vapours of many of these chemicals are either toxic or flammable or both, there is heightened concern amongst public and regulatory bodies on potential hazards in a case of accidental releases. The objective of this contribution is to present the concept and result of a wind tunnel study of the dispersion of pollution clouds in a atmospheric boundary layer. Scaling laws, which have to be fulfilled in order to ensure model/prototype similitary, have been developed. Examples of the method application have been demonstrated.

Data reconciliation of energy processes
Nováček, Adam ; Kuba, Pavel (referee) ; Touš, Michal (advisor)
This thesis is focused on problem data reconciliation of measurements. The objective of this thesis was reconciled measured value from electric drum dryer to suit exactly to the mathematical model of drying. For solution was used nonlinear data reconciliation with constrained nonlinear optimization. The entire calculation is processed in programme MATLAB and outputs are graphs of reconciled values of measurement on dryer such as inlet and outlet temperature and humidity, differential pressure of exhaust moisture air, weight of laundry, atmospheric pressure and electric supply. Achieved solution can by characterized by an amount of evaporated water. Weight of wet and dry laundry are 27,7 kg a 17,7 kg. The calculated amount of evaporated water from measurements was almost 18,8 kg. With reconciled measurements it was 9,7 kg. Goals of the thesis were found more realistic values.

The beginnigs of American feminism
Mergeščíková, Tamara ; Robbins, David Lee (advisor) ; Nováková, Soňa (referee)
in English The objective of this thesis is to trace and depict the beginnings of feminist thought in America. Its aim is to show how feminist thought was developed within the Puritan/Protestant community as well as its effect on the African-Americans who were integrated into the Puritan community as an inferior race through the slave trade. The thesis uses qualitative and quantitative methods of research. A variety of primary and secondary material is used to describe the beliefs of the people in the era, such as the division of the male and female spheres of influence. The views of both men and women are provided to create a more objective description of the era and its beliefs. In addition, the subject is considered from the American point of view as well as the point of view of foreigners, such as the French historian and political thinker Alexis de Tocqueville. Furthermore, feminism is depicted in various realms of the society - in literature, in the theatre, in the political and in the social life. The quantitative methods include statistical data on wages to prove women were not fairly treated in comparison to men, as well as data from the 1860 Census to prove the drastic effects of slavery upon African-American women and the immorality within the white society's marriage institution. The...

Comparison of hookah, electronic cigarette and classic cigarettes in regard to emitted particles
Krátký, Štěpán ; Bělka, Miloslav (referee) ; Lízal, František (advisor)
This master’s thesis is focusing on the research of chosen smoking types and their comparison in regard to emitted particles. Aerosol created during smoking represents a serious threat for human health. For purposes of this work an experimental set-up was constructed in the Laboratory of Aerosol Research at BUT FME and experiments simulating smoking process were carried out. The results of these experiments are presenting objective information about the constitution of produced aerosol which enters smoker’s lungs. There are many myths about the harmful effects of different types of smoking. The goal of this work is to verify and resolve these myths and set the foundation for possible upcoming research in this area.

Educational attitudes of foster parents.
FIALOVÁ, Adéla
Foster care is a form of foster care and it regulates family law (Foster care is a form of foster care and it regulates family law). Foster care controls and guarantes the State. Children suitable for foster care are children which are legally free, and therefore can not be entrusted to adoption. To foster care are usually placed older children or children with disabilities. Foster care expires at legal age of the child. If the child prepares for a future job, foster care can take up to 26 years of age. Foster care can be performed in groups or individually. In the first chapters on the topic: educational attitudes of foster parents I deal with family and the atmosphere in it. In the other chapters I describe forms of foster care - custody, guardianship, adoption or foster care and adoption, where I also mention the history of foster care and intermediation of adoption and foster care. One chapter I deal to biological parents of the children because foster children in foster care and biological family have the right to be in contact. In a few chapters I deal to education, where I write in detail about educational resources and of reward and punishment. In addition, in the chapter on education I deal with parental attitudes toward child. In half page I deal chapter titled rules, where I mention the importance of the rules and the various areas in which there are rules. One chapter I devote to conflicts and their solutions, where I write about the different ways to solve the conflict. Because they are placed in foster care the children with disabilities, at the end of the theoretical part of the thesis I deal with chapter named: the children with disabilities in foster families, and specifically down syndrome and autism. I choosed a qualitative method for the research project and I performed interviews with respondents with half structured interview. The respondents were six foster families. I recorded interviews on the recorder with the consent of the respondents and then transcribed . The only criterion to decide on the respondents was that the respondents must be currently foster parents and be in foster care for at least one foster child. In the research section I have chosen the following objectives: 1. The objective is to establish a conscious and unexplored educational attitudes of foster parents 2. The operational objective is to capture the context changes and the development of educational attitudes of foster parents. To achieve these objectives, I formulated the following research questions: 1.Which styles of education do foster parents use in the upbringing of the children? Half of the respondents agreed that in education are important rules and boundaries that should be respected. In the education of children with foster parents attempt to a democratic approach. 2. Which rewards or punishments do foster parents use? Foster parents report that violations of the rules are punished by a ban on popular activities, such as television or computers. Foster parents agreed that physical punishment don´t use, except for an occasional slap. 3. Do exist differences in education of biological children and conferred on the children in foster care? All foster families have agreed that they don´t make differences in education, biological and conferred on the children. But also the majority of foster parents think that generally foster parents make the differences between biological children and the children entrusted, for example, as clothes, and that for some it is a lot to see. Two guardians indicated that there should be a difference in approach, in the sense that not everything should be entrusted children to say straight. The conclusion of my bachelor thesis I finish discussion, where I return again to the results of the research part of the thesis. This thesis provides an authentic experience of foster parents

Design of Audio Power Amplifiers
Gasnárek, Jiří ; Kratochvíl, Tomáš (referee) ; Šebesta, Jiří (advisor)
The aim of the bachelor's thesis is the description of design and construction audio power amplifiers. This topic is very voluminous and therefore I limited it to basic familiarization with options of bias point placement, connection of power transistors and requested properties of audio power amplifier. It is requested to reach a balanced amplification in transferred frequency band (20 Hz – 20 kHz), to eliminate passage distortion by linearization of passages, to stabilize the amplifier by negative feedback and minimize the signal distortion in limitation by suitable concept of the DC source. Following part contains a suggestion of end transistor properties based on requested output and impendance, their choice (2SC5200, 2SA1943) and calculation of expected heat lost of the amplifier. From known transfer temperatures is set a request on an end transistor cooler. The final part deals with a sketch of scaling way of amplifiers, assumed value and objective comparison of modules. I discuss there possibility of subjective comparison by listening to the same part of sound recording via both modules.

Comparison of web application development in Nette Framework (PHP) and Node.JS
Kočárek, Michal ; Pecinovský, Rudolf (advisor) ; Mazánek, Petr (referee)
The thesis is concerned with comparison of web application development platforms, namely Nette Framework on PHP platform and platform Node.JS. The objective is to provide complex picture of differences between the frameworks. Previous theses compared Grails framework on Java platform, Zend Framework on PHP platform and ASP.NET MVC platform. This thesis builds upon them thus provides comparison of five different platforms for web application development. As a part of the thesis, I developed two web applications. One is in Nette Framework in PHP and one is in Node.JS. Their purpose is to be main source of information for the comparison. Furthermore, beginning developer learning new platform can use them as a study material. They can also help to examine platform differences. Applications I developed meet same user requirements as the applications contained in previous theses. Therefore it is possible to compare all five applications on five platforms with each other. The platforms are compared in several areas. First area focuses on fundamental platform differences. Second area is more theoretical. It concerns the platform architecture. Platforms are judged by amount of the support for Martin Fowler's architectonical patterns. Next area concerns platforms' usage during the web application development. There are both objective criteria as well as subjective evaluation based on the application development included. The last area compares available support of the platforms. Thesis provides complex comparison of five different platforms by same criteria. Developed web applications, based on same requirements, are also a benefit. Potential reader can form her own judgement based on the differences in implementation of same functionality she founds on different platforms.
