Escape games in German language teaching
Hůla, Filip ; Botlík Nuc, Tomáš (advisor) ; Nečasová, Pavla (referee)
The diploma thesis deals with the phenomenon of escape rooms and their use in education. Firstly, a theoretical basis was created in which the individual components of escape rooms were elaborated in detail. Understanding all the components, their functions and the whole concept provided the opportunity to explain the applicability of escape rooms in education, specifically to outline the possibilities and limits of escape rooms. These have been described from both a technical and a pedagogical perspective. Escape rooms have been put in the context of pedagogical theory, where they have found support both in the curriculum and in other pedagogical principles. The roles of both teacher and students in this regard were characterized. The use of Escape Rooms in education was concretised in terms of foreign language teaching, explaining the possibilities offered by escape games in German language teaching. In the practical part of the thesis, an original escape game for German language teaching, Treasure in Vienna, was created. As the name indicates, the escape game is set in Vienna, so the pupils work with cultural background, foreign language and at the same time develop key competences. The escape game was developed on the basis of the theoretical part, taking into account all the important...

The first part of the thesis is concerned with composer's life in the interwar cultural context, the second part focuses on his works. Detailed attention is paid to the period when Schulhoff was influenced by interwar avand-garda movement, particularly by Dadaism and jazz dance music and also Neoclassicism. The third part handles the issue of the use of Schulhoff's work related to his life at nowaday school and brings some ideas and possibilities of use in school music lessons with intersubject overlap.

Pitcher Plants and Their Use in Teaching Botany
Burian, Michal ; Hrouda, Lubomír (advisor) ; Srba, Miroslav (referee)
The major objective of this thesis are carnivorous plants of the genus Nepenthes and their pedagogical and educational usage addressing students of elementary and grammar schools. The first part provides a general description of the Nepenthes plants, often called tropical pitcher plants due to their pitcher-shaped leaves that function as a passive pitfall trap. Moreover, the field research on the Nepenthes digestive fluid acidity was undertaken at Borneo. Plant's acidity was measured by the pH meter with glass electrode. The results obtained prove pH level differences for various Nepenthes species. In addition, pH level differences in between the fluid from freshly opened pitcher and an older fluid were observed. All results are cross-validated with the values reported in literature. On the basis of the results of the field research, didactic part is assembled. The didactic part consists of the Nepenthes general description and proposal of educational activities aiming at the botany popularization in elementary and grammar schools. Subsequently, the method proposed is tested in biology classes of the second grade of elementary school. The results reveal a positive influence of the method on student's interest in botany.

Changes in the Landscape of the North Bohemian Mines as an Example of a Cross-cutting Theme in Natural History Teaching
Johanová, Milena ; Hanel, Lubomír (advisor) ; Andreska, Jan (referee)
The bachelor thesis deals with coal mining in northern Bohemia in the Chomutov region, reclamation and the influence of these activities on the occurrence of animal and plant species in the landscape. The occurrence and exemplary species of organisms in a landscape that has already been reclaimed after mining are presented. The occurrence of some species was a very interesting finding and the work explains why even a devastated landscape provides some species with satisfactory living conditions. The work illustrates how the ongoing changes in nature have an impact on plants and animals and whether the subsequent reclamation of the landscape can contribute to the return of native species. The thesis also points out the possibility of using the topic of brown coal mining and subsequent recultivation in teaching various subjects in schools. The knowledge of the bachelor thesis can acquaint students with the mining area, the ongoing reclamation and their importance. Keywords devasted landscape, mining activity, plants, animals, protected species, reclamation
