Learning with Elements of Inquiry-based Science Education Focused on Invertebrate Animals of the School Garden for Pupils of the 2nd Grade of Primary School
Sedláčková, Denisa ; Svobodová, Silvie (advisor) ; Říhová, Dagmar (referee)
The thesis delves into teaching with elements of inquiry-based education, with a focus on invertebrate animals in the school garden environment. The theoretical section addresses the instruction of invertebrate animals at the 2nd level of primary school, characterizing representatives commonly encountered by students in the school garden. Simultaneously, it identifies the potential of the school garden for natural science education. This section also describes activating teaching methods to be implemented in the proposed educational program. The practical part of the thesis thoroughly explores the design of an educational program with an emphasis on investigative elements. This program includes the production of tools for collecting and capturing invertebrate animals, such as creating insect hotels, beetle traps, and pitfall traps. The thesis also meticulously examines the practical utilization of various tools for identifying captured invertebrates. The proposed educational program has been carefully implemented and subsequently thoroughly verified in practice. In the research section of the thesis, a systematic study was conducted using pretests and posttests to examine the impact of the applied educational program on changes in students' knowledge and attitudes towards invertebrates.

Abiotic and biotic conditions in the cave Chýnov and their protection.
LUTZ, Vojtěch
In my thesis I worked cave water chemistry and invertebrate sampling Chýnov cave. Sampling took place three times from June 2007 to April 2008. Sampling sites regularly distributed in the cave and differed intensity, distance from the surface and assumed the character of the overburden. These values were measured: sodium, potassium, calcium, nitrites, nitrates, phosphates, sulfates, chlorides, ammonium ions, water hardness. In the end I tried to summarize the results from samples of patterns and compare them with results from the years 2006, 2007. In comparison with the samplesbeing from 2006, 2007, the apparent increased calcium content and the reduction of nitrate. The collection of invertebrates at a site such as Chýnov cave (protected by law č.114/1992 sb. On nature and lands cape), the need for the exemption granted by the Government of the Republic through the Ministry of Environment. For this reason Ireferred to the research results of the first invertebrate cave Chýnov of 16 May 2000, conducted by Dvorak and Mlejnek masters. Research includes only the basic data. We have found three kinds of snails, two species of caddis, four species of beetles from the family of ground beetles, three species of butterflies, one species of spider and twospecies of crustaceans.
