The effect of 3D models usage in teaching on students' misconceptions about contours
Mokruša, Oldřich ; Hanus, Martin (advisor) ; Cimová, Tereza (referee)
The diploma thesis deals with the impact of using 3D models in education on students' misconceptions about contours. The main objective of the thesis is to determine whether 3D relief models are a suitable tool for eliminating students' misconceptions when interpreting elevation on topographic maps. To introduce the reader to the context, the terms related to topographic maps, pedagogical constructivism, and the use of 3D models in education are first explained. To achieve the main objective and collect data, closed conceptual tests and educational interventions with the help of three-dimensional models are used. Crucial data is obtained by comparing the results students achieved before the intervention, in the pre-test, and after completing it, in the post-test. This research builds on a series of previous studies that were focused on the issue of misconceptions in interpreting contour lines. One of the outcomes of this thesis is the specifics and process of creating 3D terrain models and worksheets, which serve as teaching tool. The results showed that students' performance and confidence in their answers improved. To draw conclusions, the results are compared with specialized literature concerning the use of 3D models in education. Key words: Contours, misconception, conceptual test, 3D model,...

Analysis of tourism in the Příbram region with a focus on mining tourism
Mokruša, Oldřich ; Vágner, Jiří (advisor) ; Jelen, Jakub (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with the analysis of tourism in Příbram. More specifically, it focuses on mining tourism, its manifestations in the world, in Europe and in the Czechia, and then studies in detail the possibilities and development of the model area of Příbram. The aim of the work is to characterize a new form of tourism and apply the acquired knowledge to the selected area. The first part focuses on the definition and delimitation of mining tourism in the world tourism. The complexity of the definition, suitable assumptions and the importance of this form of tourism in the global, European and specifically in the Czech scale are discussed. The work also deals with the current state of mining facilities in the Příbram region and their use in mining tourism. At the same time, the negative impacts caused by the ongoing covid-19 pandemic are being discussed. From the acquired knowledge and guided interviews, shortcomings are analyzed and the possibilities of further development of mountain tourism are created. The results showed that although mountain tourism in the Příbram region is well developed, there is still untapped potential for the future growth. Key words: tourism, mining tourism, Příbram, Mining museum
