Matějková, Veronika ; Liguš, Ján (advisor) ; Noble, Ivana (referee) ; Kaplánek, Michal (referee)
1 Abstract The aim of the presented thesis was to compactly document and evaluate the theoretical, practical and research aspects of catechetical work from the perspective of practical theology with adults in the CzHCh from its foundation (1920) to the present (2018). In this paper we used a mixed method, i.e. a combination of qualitative and quantitative questioning, according to the Danish theologian Van der Ven. Specifically, the method of historical-critical analysis of the source material was predominant in the second chapter, mainly analysing all available printed (books, scripts, journal articles, congregational documents) and other CzHCh sources dealing with adult catechesis in the CzHCh. The analysis of the sources was combined with discursive analysis and a diachronic method tracing the changes or development of phenomena between periods. In the third chapter, using an empirical-exploratory method, we presented the research with an author-designed questionnaire survey. Some of the data were supplemented by authorized interviews with memoirists. This work can now serve as a basic practical-theological analysis 2 for the development of adult catechesis in the current CzHCh, for the future IX. Ordinary Assembly of the CzHCh (2024). At the same time, this work is a contribution to the field of...

Religious Education at Primary and Secondary School. A Public Attitudes to the Question.
Ondrejková, Kateřina ; Liguš, Ján (advisor) ; Strašíková, Blanka (referee)
My diploma thesis is divided into two parts - the theoretical one and the practical one. In my opinion, people perceive religion as a natural part of the general education, according to the bibliography and my own experience. Not only this. People, mainly young people, are open-minded to faith. It assumes people are able to understand these things which only religion can bring them. It pays heed to this topic in the practical part of my work. There is also an emphasis on the school teaching of religion in history in this work. It concerns the personality of teacher who teaches religion (the qualification of the teacher of religion). Furthermore, it also concerns the status of religion, the church schools and Churches in the contemporary rule of law in the Czech Republic.
