Čakovská, Hana ; Hasman, Jiří (advisor) ; Kostelecká, Yvona (referee)
The aim of the thesis is to quantitatively assess the position of pupils of foreign origin in schools. This is analysed through the magnitude of the differences in learning outcomes between immigrant pupils and native pupils in eight different education systems. The main aim is to capture the heterogeneity between the selected countries, which were chosen because of differences in integration strategies, the amount of funding directed to education and the organisation of education systems. For the purpose of the analysis, the international database of the PISA survey was used with 49 687 respondents. The effect of foreign origin is analysed together with other determinants in order to reveal its relevance in explaining students' performance in school. The author is not aware of any differences in the academic performance of immigrant pupils and native-born pupils have been captured in other similar comparative research. Based on the literature, the factors were grouped into three levels - pupil, school and country levels. For this purpose, a multilevel linear model is used, which is able to purge the effect of school level from the role of individual characteristics. The influence of immigrant background has been demonstrated, but is influenced by other factors such as economic, social and cultural...

Prostorová diferenciace výskytu školní šikany v Evropě
ČAKOVSKÁ, Hana
The bachelor's thesis focuses on the spatial differences of the occurrence of school bullying on the state level. The distribution of the sociopathological phenomenon is an examination based on qualified data on the proportions of bullied bullied students, which was carried out as part of an international PISA survey organized by the Organization for Economic Co-operation (OECD). To reveal spatial regularities, quantitative methods are used, namely correlation and regression analysis, which control the relationship of school bullying with selected economic, social and other indicators. The impact is evaluated for each country in the analysis. In order to draw conclusions, the European space is generalized in the synthesis and causality is examined and the determinants are described in a regional concept. The work aims to analyze, then interpret the spatial differences of the phenomenon and try for other causes, the specific local and regional significance of European countries.
