Videoconferencing Application
Jandera, Pavel ; Šmirg, Ondřej (referee) ; Číka, Petr (advisor)
Videoconferencing is a modern way of communication, in which the participants carry picture and sound and during transmission can also exchange various data. The aim of this work is to create an application for the connection of up to eight participants to videoconferencing and create a web interface to facilitate configuration of this application. Videoconferences types and the feasibility are described in the first part of this work. Furthermore, the SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) protocol used to production of multimedia sessions is described. RADVISION IVP system was selected to the implementation of videoconferencing application. IVP is a complex system for the operation of videoconferencing, which allows implementing and operating various types of services. Basic components of system are described in next section of this work. Second part of this work describes interface for applications creating that IVP offers to programmers. The main part of this work is the design and implementation of video conferencing application that is realized as an IVP service. There is described the implementation and testing. A web interface to facilitate the configuration of video conferencing applications has been designed and implemented. This interface also allows the service provider to manage user accounts. The web interface was implemented in Java EE.

DRDOVÁ JONÁŠOVÁ, Daniela
The bachelor thesis deals with changes in an institution while individually integrating a child with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) into a mainstream preschool. The thesis is divided into a theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part is divided into three sections. The first section describes the definition of the autism spectrum disorders, etiology, a triad of problematic areas, unspecific variable features, description of selected disorders and diagnosis. The second section defines the terms of integration and inclusion. The third section deals with possibilities of educating children with autism spectrum disorders, preschool education and selected supporting measures. By means of qualitative research, specifically a case study, the aim of the practical part is to observe and describe specific phenomena occurring while individually integrating a child with autism spectrum disorders into a mainstream preschool. For qualitative data collection, techniques of participant observation, document analysis, and semi-structured interviews were applied. The aim of the thesis is to respond to the research questions and to achieve the set goal. The bachelor thesis can be used as inspirational material for preschools meeting individual integration of a child with ASD for the first time.

It introduces European language portfolio and vocabulary for level A1. The second part is focused on field research that was realised at primary school in Prague. For this qualitative research were chosen 10 pupils from Slavic and Non-Slavic countries. The aim of this research was gaining of compact information about chosen pupils by analysing their individual educational plan, interviews with pupils, teachers and headmaster, analysing their tests and observation. The reseach was concentrated on reading comprehension. 3 different texts were made. One from them was made according to vocabulary for level A1. The other texts were text from textbook and it's simplified version. Each text had a few questions that pupils had to answer. The results of two texts were compared and commented.

MARTÍNKOVÁ, Kristýna
My diploma thesis focuses on a vital issue our society is currently dealing with and that is the problematics of a cooperation between the teacher and the teaching assistant in primary schools.

The first section explains main terms of the inclusive approach to pedagogy, second part mentions various means of support and the final part is dedicated to the cooperation of the teacher and the assistant. The empirical part is a research, which explores cooperation patterns between the teacher and the assistant. The research uses a qualitative approach and employs a semi-structured interview method.

Supporting children with special educational needs and disabilities: examples of good practice at primary and lower secondary schools in and around Tábor.
KISBY, Hana
The theoretical part of this dissertation deals with the issue of special needs integration. It provides explanations of terms concerning special needs education whilst examining factors that could influence its success rate. Moreover, it specifies the legislative basis regarding the education of people with special educational needs. This includes the organisation of special educational provision and its types, the system of SEN support, the role of teaching assistants and their major responsibilities. The closing chapter consists of disability profiles of selected SEN pupils. The practical part is devoted to the casuistry of selected SEN pupils. It describes the diagnosis, course and progress of their disability from birth to present day and looks at how they interact with classmates as well as their educational performance, possibilities and limits. Moreover, it examines their family background and attitudes of parents and teachers towards their school duties, which present the increased demands so closely linked with the SEN process. Attention is drawn to the benefits of inclusive education for both pupils with disabilities themselves and for classes they are integrated into. Research took the form of personal document analysis, observation and interviews with the SEN pupils, their parents, teachers and classmates. In effect, the investigation implies that the success of special needs integration depends on a whole range of factors, perhaps the most crucial being the teacher's personality. This is of vital importance for managing both knowledge transfer and mutual interaction between mainstream children and children with disabilities.
