Communication between teachers and pupils in elementary school in gender perspective
Svobodová, Tereza ; Smetáčková, Irena (advisor) ; Levínská, Markéta (referee)
Ve své práci se zaměřuji na pedagogickou komunikaci a případně genderové stereotypy, které se zde mohou odrážet. Tato diplomová práce se skládá ze dvou částí, z teoretické a empirické. V teoretické části lze rozlišit dva oddíly. V prvním oddíle vymezuji základní pojmy a uvádím základní teoretická východiska genderových teorií. V druhém oddíle se pak podrobněji zaměřuji na instituci školy a způsoby, jak se zde mohou genderové stereotypy promítat. Empirická část představuje popis a vyhodnocení výzkumu, který jsem prováděla na prvním stupni základní školy. Tento výzkum probíhal ve čtvrté třídě, kde jsem pozorovala případnou míru genderového zatížení pedagogické komunikace u tří učitelek. Jednalo se o kvalitativní výzkum, v rámci kterého jsem používala jednoduché kvantitativní metody. Empirickou část tak lze rozdělit na kvalitativní a kvazi-kvantitativní. Kvazikvantitativní díl obsahuje analýzu a interpretaci dat ze záznamového archu. Záznamový arch jsem vytvářela sama, na základě předběžného pozorování, ale také jsem se inspirovala genderové orientovanou odbornou literaturou. Záznamový arch tedy zohledňuje specifika konkrétního zkoumané vzorku. Druhou část tvoří kvalitativní výzkum, který probíhal dvěma způsoby. Zaprvé v obecnější rovině skrze analýzu a interpretaci všech záznamů z hodin a poznámek ze...

Is it myself in the mirror?
Radová, Vlasta ; Levínská, Markéta (advisor) ; Doubek, David (referee)
in English A beautiful and healthy body now indicates a happy and contented life, and that is why our society is so obsessed by it. It was transformed into a commercial object, and the borders to which we can manipulate with it are pushed even further. At the same time, many people realize the necessity of cooperation with the body in order to reach a physical and mental health. Voices are heard calling for prevention of exploitation of human bodies and against the lowering of human dignity. We can see showing up different kinds of oriental philosophy, psychosomatic medicine or psychoterapeutic approaches targeted at the body, which are trying to outweigh the trends treating the body as a mere commodity. In spite of those efforts, the number of people with impaired perception and experiencing of their own body is still growing. The most frequent and most discussed are the eating disorders, which endanger seriously all aspects of a person's life. Most of the disorders will develop during adolescence, and that is why in my research I focused on the mapping of corporal experience of young people. In my work I employed the grounded theory method, or a qualitative research. The main research method used is semi-structured interview. The theoretical part consists of a philosophical historical and social...
