The University Entrance Examination and New School-leaving Exam
Belháčová, Zuzana ; Vasileská, Marie (advisor) ; Kratochvílová, Věra (referee)
In connection with the legislative changes which have been taking place in the Czech Republic since the adoption of the New School Act and in accordance with the European Union recommendations, the demand for measurable results in education, which would be transparent, valid, reliable and comparable, has arisen. The issues connected with the evaluation of results in education will be dealt with in an autonomous institution - Centre for the Evaluation of the Results in Education (CERMAT). The newly established institution will start functioning on January 1st 2006.1 The Centre for the Evaluation of the Results in Education (CERMAT) is going to build on the results and data, which had been collected in the 2001 - 2006 period in the Centre for the Maturita Reform through annual research programmes, which were part of the programme cycle called "Step by Step to New Maturita".1 Graduation theses deal with testing issues in Science subjects (with the emphasis on Chemistry), ways and means can make use of the results in education (CERMAT) for entrance examination on university in the 2007-2008 period, interpretation of statistic data in relation to a test and to individual items. The basic principles of testing can make use of creation and test construction from chemistry on secondary schools. With the help of...

Evaluation of Eduction on Basic and Secondary Schools
Kindl, Lukáš ; Kratochvílová, Věra (referee) ; Vasileská, Marie (advisor)
As of January 1st, 2006, based on the law 561/2004 Coll., the Ministry of Schools, Youth and Physical Education founded an independent institution called "Center for educational results appreciation" (abbreviated as CERMAT). The Center concentrates on solving several key issues related to the need to ensure easy to understand, comprehensive and mutually measurable educational results. Leaving aside the issue of state coordinated secondary school leaving examination, evaluation and auto-evaluation of schools stands out as equally important area of interest. This area is being worked out within the system project KVALITA I under European Social Fund (ESF). The aim of the project is to gradually develop new system for monitoring and evaluating results of primary and secondary education. The thesis deals with creation of tools (in the form of achievement tests) aimed at evaluation and auto-evaluation of educational results reached in science topics, namely in chemistry. Preparatory and submission phases were followed by didactic analysis of statistical data obtained through pilot survey using two sets of tasks (each in two modifications), namely "Chemistry basics" and "Critical reading focused on healthy diet and regime". Based on proposed changes the tasks were adopted and tests were created to measure the...
