Drvotová, Aneta ; Lisnerová, Romana (advisor) ; Dvořáková, Miroslava (referee)
The topic of the thesis is a change of a role of headmaster in the process of merging basic schools and kindergartens. The aim of the thesis is to describe the role of the headmaster and the means by which he executes managerial activities before and after the merger. The theoretical part characterises managerial roles and defines the headmaster as a manager, a leader and an executive. It states managerial functions, or more precisely, activities, which the headmaster uses for successful accomplishment of his managerial work. The aim of the thesis is verified in the empirical part, which describes three case studies that were carried out with headmasters of basic schools who had already undergone the process of merging a basic school with a kindergarten. The main focus of the work is to describe how the role of the headmaster has changed, and whether the means of executing of managerial roles have been changed after the merger. The thesis could serve as supporting material for not only the directors who are in the process of merging, but also for the part of the public interested in this issue.

Evaluation of trends in open education with focus on massive open online courses
Slavický, Marek ; Dvořáková, Miroslava (advisor) ; Frič, Pavol (referee)
Mass Open Online Courses have been a phenomenon in education in the past few years. Although their popularity is globaly on the rise, it is not yet clear how sustainable MOOCs really are in the long run. Lack of academic texts and non- existing set of guidelines for the design and implementation of effective and successful MOOCs is one of today's problems. The aim of this paper is to create such criteria that can assess the MOOC quality and success, and subsequently assess current MOOC approach and effectivity as well as outline steps to increase their efficacy. In the paper, I present a novel analysis method of potential MOOC efficacy indicators. Then, based on created criteria, I define the importance of lector's active role in the course, the need for clear formulation and communication of rules, goals and expectations, and the significance of setting high course standards. At the end, I suggest ways of utilizing this thesis for further research.
