Bartáková, Irena ; Chvál, Martin (advisor) ; Kucharská, Anna (referee) ; Michek, Stanislav (referee)
This dissertation deals with the predictive validity of the state part of the school-leaving exam and the entrance exam to the Faculty of Education, Charles University. Its purpose is to find what influence these exams have on academic performance, with the criteria being the grade point average for each year of the bachelor program, cumulative grade point average and the state final examination grade. The data set consists of students admitted for academic years 2016/2017 and 2017/2018 in the following fields: Czech language, English language and Special education. The dissertation includes also a review study giving an overview of the research on the predictive validity conducted in the Czech republic and other countries. The empirical part provides the description and comparison of the individual data sets, including results from school-leaving exam and the entrance exam, as well as university grades. As for the school-leaving exams, students pass most succesfully the English exam. When focusing on the field of study, the most successful students are those of the English language, while students of Special education have the worst grades. However, these students achieve the best results in the entrance exam and they also perform best during their university studies, which can be seen in the...

Development of speed competence of the applicants for the physical education study program at the College of Education at the Charles University
Šverma, Jan ; Kašpar, Ladislav (advisor) ; Hrabinec, Jiří (referee)
TITLE: The Development of speed competence of the applicants for the physical education study program at the College of Education at the Charles University. SUMMARY: The aim of my thesis is to summarize the development of speed competence of all applicants for the physical education program at the College of Education at the Charles University from 1991 to 2010. The speed competence testing took place on a track and consisted of running the 100 m during the entrance examination for the physical education program. Using statistical methods (arithmetic average, standard deviation, variation coefficient, modus and median) I will compare each year's performances, differences in performances by applicants' study concentration, and differences among men's and women's performances. Besides examining the speed competence of the applicants I will also examine the number of applicants each year. KEYWORDS: Speed testing, entrance exam, College of Education, Charles University, physical education, statistical methods, study combination, athletics, sprint, running for speed, sport performance.

Mathematical preparation of pupils in primary school to secondary school
CÍSAŘOVÁ, Veronika
The theoretical part of this Diploma Thesis covers the subject matter of the 5th grade primary level pupils. This subject matter is further on divided into several chapters with some standard exercises included. The practical part contains an exercise book which is addressed to 5th grade primary level pupils. This part basically shows some mathematical exercises to which are pupils exposed when sitting for an entrance exam at grammar school. As for the next part of this Diploma Thesis there is the research which deals with testing some of those mathematical exercises in practice.
