Laboratory Work on Plant Physiology and Anatomy and its Use at Primary School
Vágnerová, Kateřina ; Teodoridis, Vasilis (advisor) ; Odcházelová, Tereza (referee)
The presented master thesis is focused on practical teaching of the plant anatomy, morphology ad physiology at primary schools in the Czech Republic. The theoretical part contains a summary of the basic knowledge about plant morphology anatomy and physiology including integration of the practical teaching of natural science in Framework Education Programme and its extension into the School Education Programme. This part includes also detail theoretical background of teaching methods, which are suitable for laboratory work and didactic games. The second, practical part contains a detail description of the seven author's laboratory works and seven didactic games dealing with different topics from the plant anatomy, morphology and physiology, their practical evaluation on pupils of two primary schools and one secondary school including following detailed analysis of the realized questionnaire of these didactic materials. According to the obtained research data, it is obvious that the using of practical teaching form is more attractive for the pupils than conventional teaching methods at primary school.

Web computer game as an educational tool
Žemlička, Milan ; Vaňková, Petra (advisor) ; Novák, Jaroslav (referee)
This diploma thesis focuses on a didactic game and its usage within an educational process. The subject of the thesis is, on the basis of the study of the expert literature and expertly focused primary resources from various fields, to create and test a functional web computer game with didactic content. The theoretical part focuses on the very phenomenon of a game; from a historical and philosophical point of view as well as from the current interpretation of electronic games and a game in the context of didactic methods. In the empirical investigation, the thesis contains the whole development of the game, possibilities of its modification depending on users and the implementation of the didactic game in teaching. In the conclusion, the results of the research are given and recommendations for the research area of the development of other educational tools using Web applications as games are made.

Didactic educational games for chemistry in our and foreign publications
Reslová, Marie ; Šulcová, Renata (advisor) ; Zákostelná, Barbora (referee)
RESLOVÁ, M.: Didactic educational games for chemistry in our and foreign publications. Bachelor theses. Prague: Charles University in Prague, Faculty of Science, Department of Teaching and Didactics of Chemistry, 2013. This work focus on research of educational games for teaching chemistry in our and foreign publications. The term didactic educational game includes both games (crosswords, quizzes, card games and more) that only serve to repeat and consolidate the subject matter. In addition, this category includes various tasks, enabling students to understand some chemical laws that they can not easily imagine. In these tasks, subjects from the micro world are replaced by models from the macro world. Students working with models, understand and in some cases derives selected chemical laws - this is called inqury-based education. Didactic educational games belongs among the modern methods of activation which could work with student's experience.

Methods Activating Students in Education of Chemistry
Kesnerová Řádková, Olga ; Bílek, Martin (advisor) ; Klečková, Marta (referee) ; Dobrovská, Dana (referee)
Topic: Methods of Activating Students in Education of Chemistry Author: Olga Kesnerová Řádková Abstract This dissertation work aims at teaching methods in the subject of chemistry and it concentrates mainly on methods with quite a high proportion of activation of pupils. The benefits and disadvantages of activating teaching methods, possible criteria for their choice, conditions for their putting into practice and similar, are described. Later, the work focuses on four chosen activating methods, namely brainstorming methods, project method, didactic games and work with a fictional and another type of a text which is applied here into natural science teaching, namely into chemistry teaching. A story with a chemical experiment can serve as an example. The research part contains a case study of putting project teaching methods into practice which includes a record and analysis of the condition and of the problem connected with its implementation, as well as the initiation of the project with the help of brainstorming methods. Participation observing, questionnaires, mini polls and discussions were used in our case study. Altogether 184 second year students for the teaching profession of the Pedagogical Faculty of Hradec Králové University took part in the research. On the basis of the results of the research...
