Teaching rhetorics on secondary school. Present state and future perspectives
Potůčková, Marie ; Chejnová, Pavla (advisor) ; Vlčková, Jana (referee)
This thesis deals with various approaches of secondary school teachers and students to the rhetoric and the teaching of communication. The main purpose of the thesis is to map how students see the quality of their own communicative skills and the quaility of communication classes and the attitude of teachers to including communication in their classes. Attention is also paid to the development of communication teaching methods. The survey was carried out at seven Prague secondary schools mainly by using questionnaires. Data were also collected during interviews and when attending classes. The survey suggests that both students and teachers consider the teaching of communication a necessary part of Czech language and literature lessons and have a responsible attitude to it. Students are more critical to their own speech than their teachers. They have quite a good knowledge of the theoretical basis of rhetoric and communication but they have problems applying the theory in practise. Teachers prefer professional, clear and attractive textbooks of communication. As for the future of the subject teachers are of the opinion that it should become an inseparable part of all subjects, i. e. of comprehensive education. KEY WORDS rhetoric, teaching of communication, communicative skills, speech, discussion

Programme "Who I am" as tool for a distant preparation for marriage
Lejsalová, Ivana ; Zimmermannová, Marie (advisor) ; Dřímal, Ludvík (referee)
This work presents and evaluates the programme called Who I am which was published in 2007-2008 in the Brno Diocese's Catechetical Journal. This material offers a one- to two-hour long programme for young people in adolescent age. In this course (9 meetings), young people have an opportunity to consolidate their relationship with God, their faith, attitude to themselves, close relatives and to their life in general. I assess this programme from the point of view of its possible implementation for a distant preparation for marriage in the religion classes in the 8 th and 9 th grade of primary school as well as in the parish catechism. I also compare this programme with the Standards of the Czech Bishop Conference for the Preparation for the Sacrament of Marriage, particularly with the part dedicated to a distant preparation for matrimony.
