Living conditions for children from sociocultural disadvantaged families
Podstawková, Edita ; Koťátková, Soňa (advisor) ; Mazáčová, Nataša (referee)
In my paper, I focus on children and families, who are socially and culturally disadvantaged. I am trying to explain their living and educational conditions and the way these families bring their children up. In the theoretical part, I mention families with majority society background as well as Roma family - as there are a great number of these families in our society and they have the status of being socially and culturally disadvantaged. To point out the difference in upbringing in these families I also analyse the needs of a child. That enables us to see which needs of a child are not fulfilled in the socially and culturally disadvantaged families. The chapter on the rights of a child should remind us of the fact, that we are all equal regardless of skin colour or of temporary crisis life situation that makes us become socially disadvantaged. In the next part, I write about education of the socially and culturally disadvantaged children. There is description of what kind of education there is for them in our society, if there are appropriate conditions for them or if they differ from the majority society and how this problem is dealt with by the Czech Ministry of Education. The last chapter is focused on the social issue. I mention the help that these families can claim from the government....

Martincová, Romana ; Kopecký, Martin (advisor) ; Růžanská, Hana (referee)
This bachelor thesis addresses the current Roma population from an educational and employment perspective and also investigates specific tools to address these two key topics. The thesis begins with a chapter on the history of Roma from which an improved comprehension of the current educational and employment situation can be derived. To present the critical points in the education I focus on aspects of educational differences, individual levels of the school system and tools, that eliminate the formation of these differences. Education of adults Roma is provided by the government and non-profit organizations are instrumental tools for improving the employment competitiveness of Roma. Integration of Roma in the workplace support the active politics of the employer and also specific projects of independent non-profit organizations. The activities, with the goal of supporting Roma in both education and employement, is the topic of the last chapter. From the selected projects, the key principles regarding their effectiveness are investigated and they are: the scope of national politics, local partnership, involvement of Roma themselves, mutual goals settings, synergy of activities and an essential individual involvement.

Hlaváčková, Iva ; Sadílková, Helena (referee) ; Červenka, Jan (advisor)
The thesis describes and evaluates how the government acceded to an education of the Roma during the time of communism and after the year 1989. The thesis places emphasis on clarifying contemporary situation of education of the Roma. The first part of the thesis focuses on the period from 1945 till 1989. Education became an instrument of assimilation. The intention of communistic government was to eliminate romani language and culture. Education system did not reflect different ethnicity of romani children, who have not reached high-level of education. This part is for example concerned with so-called "gypsy" schools, analyses efforts of the government to involve romani children in school attendance and their results. The thesis also discusses reasons of failure in education of the Roma e.g. problems with tuitional language. Moreover, it cannot be leaving out a chapter about education of child in romani family. The second part of the thesis is concentrated on the situation after the year 1989. In spite of the political changes education system has not reflected romani children for a long time. A certain shift became between 1997-2000, when the government measures started to be used.

Education Problems of Roma (Gypsies)
Ropek, Pavel ; Mazáčová, Nataša (advisor) ; Syslová, Hana (referee)
My central tendency is to make good or not to make good that Gypsies' relation to the education and institutions of education is negative and also to specify factors which influence this situation. We can consider that as a fall of the bad situation with education of Gypsies. I made a decision to evidence this tendency by two researches. The first of them was focused on confrontation of opinions on problems with education of Gypsies by teachers who work at common elementary schools. I've chosen two different elementary schools which are situated in different conditions and localities. I've elected list of questions as a method of research. Results of these questionaries show that there isn't difference in the opinion on problems with Gipsy education dependent on location and conditions of place where was done this research. This research shows that address teachers considered Gypsies relation to education as a negative. The second research was focused on opinions of teachers who are used to work with Gipsy children and opinions of Gypsies themselves as well. I chose list of questions as a method of research again. Results of teacher's answers show that they consider Gypsies relation to education as a bad but result of Gipsy answers show that they have positive relation to the education. This research...

Matysová, Kamila ; Zadražilová, Dana (advisor) ; Klosová, Anna (referee) ; Bedrnová, Eva (referee)
Goal. The goal of the following study is it to propose educational measures in readiness for the methods of intercultural training at the Faculty of International Relations of the University of Economics Prague based on revealed cultural attitudes of the students studying International Trade to chosen ethnic, national, racial and religious groups (also called categories). In particular, the goal is it to detect explicit and implicit attitudes and related prejudice, stereotypes and experienced emotions of the students studying International Trade (IT) at the University of Economics Prague to/against 17 (respectively 20) chosen categories; to evaluate its magnitude for business practice and economy; and to propose appropriate measures for intercultural training. Sample and conditions. 167 students of International Trade from The University of Economics Prague took part in the first study. For measuring magnitude of the determinants of explicit attitudes 166 members of common population were questioned. Another 293 students were questioned in the first study and altogether 460 students took part in the second study. There were used the Bogardus social distance scale as a measuring psychological technique for explicit attitudes and prejudice, the syllogisms aptitude tests as a measuring tool for implicit attitudes and prejudice and the open questionnaire for stereotypes. Hypotheses. The following hypothesis was settled in the first study: Attitudes of the IT students have specific features, on the one hand, they differ from the attitudes and prejudice of common population and on the other hand, they have relation to the status of the perceived national, ethnic, racial and religious groups. There were tested 24 zero, working hypotheses. The first 17 working hypotheses are related to the relationship between the memberships in the two observed populations and the expressed explicit attitudes and prejudice. The next 6 hypotheses are connected to the attitudes of the students to occidental nationalities, to the Ukrainians, Russians, the Mongols and Moldovans, to the Slovaks and Czechs, Arabians and Muslims. The last working hypothesis is related to the relationship between explicit and implicit attitudes to and prejudice against Roma minority and Muslims. The following hypothesis was settled in the second study: Stereotypes of the observed population refer to the real existing intercultural differences, experienced emotions and projected cultural complexes. There was tested a working hypothesis related to the dependence between prejudice and stereotypes. Statistical analysis. The data were analyzed by the chi-square test and the strength of the relationship was measured by Cramér V. Furthermore agglomerative clustering by nearest neighbor method was applied and the results were presented as a horizontal dendrogram. Results. The results of the first study are well fitting the settled hypothesis. International Trade Students have relatively less prejudice comparing to the common population, it is influenced by their age as well as by their academic degree. There were identified several clusters of categories, that show similar attitudes. The students have positive, but not identical attitudes to all occidental categories, the same attitudes to the Ukrainians and Russians, Arabians and Muslims. The most favored national group are the Slovaks and the most prejudiced ethnic group is the Roma minority. There is dependence between explicit and implicit attitudes. The results of the second study are well fitting the settled hypothesis. Stereotypes of the observed population refer to the real existing intercultural differences as well as to experienced emotions and projected cultural complexes. The dependence between explicit stereotypes and explicit prejudice is caused by positively connoted attributes. Proposed educational measures for intercultural training are discussed in the study illustrated with examples of optional course 2OP321 Effective communication in English. Limits. Bogardus social distance scale is mostly focused on the behavioral component of the explicit attitudes, which does not necessarily mean an equivalent behavioral action.
