A lesson of higher education funding : England - place to learn?
Zichová, Markéta ; Schneider, Ondřej (advisor) ; Kameníček, Jiří (referee)
The object of this thesis is to evaluate whether it is desirable to implement the new English system of higher education funding in the Czech Republic. The English system based on income contingent loans is the youngest system of higher education funding. Chapters two and three put forward criteria sets to determine suitability of education system. The first set of criteria reflects the unique role of human capital, its levels and quality necessary for sustainable economic growth. Second set of criteria includes requirements for the system to be economically efficient. It is further shown that the current Czech system does not fulfil almost any of the criteria in their entirety, indicating a clear need for reform. Upon its confrontation with the two criteria sets on the other hand, the English system is tested as a candidate to be considered in the Czech reform. Also other countries' experience with income contingent loans is provided in order to find out the options to fulfil all the criteria for case an English system fails to do so. Although it is shown that the income contingent mechanism meets both criteria sets it is concluded that the English system includes a number of weaknesses. For example, it suffers from low adaptability to labour market needs, suboptimal quality of education or inefficient...

Science knowledge of pupils at lower primary school
ZICHOVÁ, Markéta
This diploma thesis verifies the knowledge of some specified science topics among pupils at lower primary school. The pupil´s knowledge was inquired by using their own drawings, and by a didactic test. The work mentions the analysis of science textbooks and workbooks that are used in schools as one of the knowledge sources of products of nature and animals. The results of the work are used to get the idea about the real extent of science education at lower primary school, and to find out what knowledge of this field the pupils actually have these days.
