Spatial aspects and their impact on social life on Strahov campus
Pflegerová, Nikola ; Tuček, Milan (advisor) ; Pašková, Miroslava (referee)
The main topic of this bachelor thesis deals with the issues of individuals and spatial aspects in general and uses the Strahov dormitory as an example. The text is composed of two parts, theoretical and practical. The first part is based on theoretical architectural determinism with an emphasis on interactionist theory and tries to characterize concepts related to space and spatial behavior, which may, to some extent, positively or negatively influence the behavior in general. This work also focuses on social function of buildings and the influence of the quality of space on the amount of social interaction and social life. This thesis also addresses the issues of living on university campuses - its temporary nature, sharing space with unfamiliar people and limited set of free choices. I applied the information from the theoretical part of this text on the case study of Strahov dormitory. I learned about serious lack of quality of that area, such as bad climate and operating conditions. On the other hand, I witnessed the effort made by students themselves, who are not satisfied by the conditions in which they live and try to make them better. Thanks to their initiative, new social spaces are made and the quality of the dormitory gets better.

Moral reasoning of older school age children
Oborná, Denisa ; Klusák, Miroslav (advisor) ; Neuwirthová, Barbora (referee)
The thesis deals with researching the ethical judgement in middle-school children, i.e. boy/girl scouts at the ages of eleven to fifteen years. I have gathered the underlying data by regularly attending the meetings of a boy/girl scout squad, observing and interviewing the children and, most importantly, consulting their scoutmasters, thereby gaining a comprehensive idea of the ethically ambiguous situations the children face during their time in the squad. I have defined my research area as a result of this. Together with the scoutmasters, we have then devised an activity that allowed us to have discussions with the children within the scope of the scout law, with the aim to gain an understanding of their ethical judgement. I have gained my theoretical sensitivity and overview of the general subject primarily from the works of Jean Piaget and Lawrence Kohlberg.

Urban concept is respecting the shape of the site and was also influenced by the slope of the terrain. The proposed package consists of an integrated compact unit. The aim was to achieve a gain of urban character. Urban structure is based on three blocks surrounding public spaces and a cluster of detached houses capping shape in the overall context and creates a compact big city block with a common courtyard. The development is made up of two residential buildings in the west, 30 terraced houses in the middle and 5 detached houses in the northern part of the site. Urban form is in the direction of slope soaring lightened by changing the shape of a houses floor plans. Emphasis is placed on public space and social interaction of people.

Kočí, Ondřej ; Pavlica, Karel (advisor) ; Rymeš, Milan (referee) ; Bedrnová, Eva (referee)
The thesis is aimed at hot topic discussed among company managers nearly all over the world. The managers are concerned whether the team work is as efficient as it can be, whether the potential of team is fully used and how to train or develop teams to be more compatible and more effective. It is easy to measure the performance of operations teams. But this thesis focuses on teams where the hard measurements like time/pieced measures are not applicable. Method described in the thesis is more likely based on team communication analysis, effectiveness of team decision-making process in different stages of team development cycle. The methods describing the social interaction, team work and effective leaderships are the theoretical background of study in the thesis. The data used in study were collected in related research, where author was part of small research team. The conclusions are clearly presented and supplemented by ideas for further studies.

Citizen´s Participation in Community Activities
KUDLÁČKOVÁ, Petra
In my thesis I deal with the participation of new citizens (in satellite areas) in activities of the local community. Today we live in a time of the developing issue of suburbanization. It began in the Czech Republic in the 90s of the 20th century after the Velvet Revolution, when the model of ideal housing for young families started to change gradually. In the world, this process has already started to appear many years earlier as in Western Europe or the USA. There was a significant reversal in the 19th and 20th century, when the situation was completely reversed, and most of the rural population moved to cities - urbanization process. The most common reasons for migration - for better job application and better access to needed services. The process of suburbanization means the movement of the population, their activation activities and some other functions from the core city to the suburbs of cities or urban population moving to a rural area and thus dramatically affecting and changing the face of typical rural life. A new area is growing around villages which changes the form from rural to urban style. New residents of these suburbs (satellite cities) live their learned life, ie. they prefer anonymity and do not adapt to life in the country. Suburbanization is a normal process that took place in our history in the development of cities. From the available historical sources, we know that it has been recorded on maps of Mesopotamian cities. This thesis is used to determine how new residents from the areas of satellite villages (Litvínovice, Hlincova Hora and Dubné) participate in the activities of local communities. To determine the objectives and elaboration of this thesis there were two hypotheses set. H1: Persons in the lower age will participate more in social activities in the village than the elderly. H2: Women will participate more in social events in the community than men. This bachelor's thesis consists of two parts. In the first part of this thesis I deal with current issues of suburbanization. The theoretical part includes basic concepts, the present in the countryside, the history of the rural countryside of South Bohemia, social interaction and socialization style and standard of living in suburbia. The second part of this bachelor's thesis deals with the research. Methodology work is processed using quantitative research. Data collection was conducted through a questionnaire survey. One type of questionnaire was composed and designed for the research sample, which consisted of new village residents (resident since 2000) who live in new buildings in the villages Hlincová Hora, Litvínovice and Dubné. The questionnaire consisted of 20 questions, of which 17 were closed and 3 were semi-open. The questions in the questionnaire were intended to determine the participation of the citizens in local community activities in the surveyed village they lived in. The research was conducted from 1st March 2013 to 15th March 2013. There were 260 questionnaires personally distributed (100%). In Litvínovice 148 questionnaires were distributed, in Hlincová Hora 60 questionnaires and in Dubné 52 questionnaires. All were completed and collected back in person. All distributed questionnaires (260 questionnaires) were used in the research. Of 260 respondents surveyed, 130 were women and 130 were men divided in 130 respondents up to 40 years (lower age) and 130 respondents over 40 years (elderly). The set hypotheses. H1: Persons in the lower age will participate more in social activities in the village than the elderly was refuted. H2: Women will participate more in social activities than men in the village was refuted. The information obtained from the data collection can be used as information material for mayors of surveyed villages. Also, these data can be used to meet the needs of mayors in motivating new citizens to cooperate and participate in the activities of local communities.
