Kakešová, Kristýna ; Janštová, Vanda (advisor) ; Chlebounová, Irena (referee)
This bachelor's theses is dedicated to fieldwork in Biology at secondary school in the Czech Republic. It is dedicated to the topic of school gardens. The first part is presenting the advantages of fieldwork and also its obstacles, which could make the implementation of fieldwork harder. One of these concerns is the emplacement of Biology fieldwork in the curriculum for different educational levels (lower and upper secondary schools), where this method is not often explicitly included. The second part is dedicated to the school gardens in the Czech Republic, it summarizes results of studies exploring gardens' conditions, facilities, and usage. Results show that most of the lower secondary schools have their garden and they also use it for teaching, mostly practical subjects as gardening or cultivating work. In the case of upper secondary schools, there is a lack of comprehensive studies. Other foci of the thesis are: a history of school gardens in Czechia; organizations involved in Biology and Science education in school gardens, and selected teaching methods appropriate for teaching Biology in school gardens.

The Implementation of Education in Geology Science in High Schools
OUBRAMOVÁ, Jana
The bachelor thesis deals with the teaching of geology at the higher level of grammar schools. The aim is to map out the conditions under which the teaching is realized. The four main determinants for geology teaching at grammar schools - the framework educational program for grammar schools, school educational programs, textbooks and teaching methods were defined. In the theoretical part, the characteristics of these factors are presented. In the practical part of the thesis they are subjected to closer examination and confrontation. Based on the analysis of the educational programs, textbooks and teachers' opinions, the following conclusions were made: Geology is only marginally enrolled in some schools. Primary pupils come to grammar schools usually without interest in inanimate nature, and their knowledge is weaker than the knowledge of pupils coming from lower secondary schools. The continuity of the curriculum, which is evident from the curriculum documents, does not appear to be very effective in practice. The basic method of teaching that can attract pupils is practical learning of nature in the field. The personality and the teacher's approval are very important.
