Velgová, Denisa ; Čtrnáctová, Hana (advisor) ; Urbanová, Klára (referee)
and keywords Acid-base process PowerPoint presentation for secondary schools Abstract: At the present time, the requirements for the quality of nature sciences education in secondary schools are steadily increasing. However, the time approbation for teaching is relatively limited. Using presentations is going to be a possible way to increase the effectiveness of educational process and to take the full advantage of teaching methods which have positive effect on the motivation and activation of students. The goal of this Diploma work is to create a collection of teaching presentations in the MS PowerPoint application with a view to a part of general chemistry, i.e. the theme Acid-base process in the curriculum for four-year grammar schools or alternatively for higher years of longer grammar schools. These presentations are processed to be used in the real chemistry lessons in secondary schools. The subject matter of the curriculum is divided into five chapters, one chapter corresponds to one presentation. In order to facilitate the orientation of potential user every presentation is provided with an accompanying text. The electronic version of presentations is attached to Diploma work. Keywords: secondary school chemistry, general chemistry, acid-base process, student motivation, PowerPoint presentation

Title Chemistry education at secondary schools of civil engineering in the Czech Republic Abstract The goal of this work is to evaluate the chemistry education at secondary schools of civil engineering in the Czech Republic, which provide education of four-year study programs with school leaving exam. At first, question form of data gathering was used at the part of these schools. The general goal was narrowed by analyzing the answers of a questionnaire and the next work was concentrated on creating a study material containing themes of the chemistry of building materials. This material was used during the period of its creation and was modified due to the reactions of the students. The material was then extended with themes of general, inorganic, organic chemistry and biochemistry. The learning material was extended to the form of practice book, which has been used as a main educational tool for the chemistry education. The learning material was evaluated by theoretical methodology and by anonymous questionnaire filled by students. The objective evaluation of the impact of the learning material on the school grades was analyzed through five years. Key words Chemistry of building materials, secondary schools, learning material, workbook.

CHARLES UNIVERSITY IN PRAGUE Faculty of Science Department of Teaching& Didactics of Chemistry Ph.D. study program: Chemistry Education Education in Inorganic Chemistry in Context of Common Life Ph. D. thesis Mgr. Šárka Matoušková Abstract The objective of this Ph.D. thesis is to contribute to the effectiveness and quality of education of inorganic chemistry in the context of common life. The first chapter characterizes the current state of inorganic chemistry as a science and as a teaching subject. The requirements of the teachers teaching inorganic chemistry in secondary schools were determined by using the method of personal interview in the second chapter. After comparing the school systems in the third chapter and the analysis of selected textbooks used in the Czech Republic and in one of the countries of Germany, the criteria for creating teaching materials for inorganic chemistry were set. A textbook on the topic of the transition metals for secondary school pupils was created by means of a transformation of a scientific text. Finally, the textbook was evaluated by chemistry teachers at secondary schools in the form of a questionnaire survey and adjusted to the final form. Keywords: school system, secondary school, inorganic chemistry, chemistry education, textbook, transition metals, interview,...
