Ernyeiová, Jana ; Novotná, Jarmila (advisor) ; Pokorná, Věra (referee) ; Nýdl, Václav (referee)
This work refers to the topic of bilingual mathematics education. It is focused on monitoring the communicational influences of teacher's and pupil's language, categorization of the disturbing effects and possibilities, how the teacher should prepare for them and how to solve them. A significant role plays the reflection of the teacher, as the results were done on the basis of action research during teaching in England, Germany and the Czech Republic. The teaching was realized in a second language as well for the teacher as for the pupils. The teacher was at the same time experimenter as well as author of this work. The theoretical part results from dealing with scientific literature about bilingualism, bilingual education, methodology of CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning), relations between first language, language of mathematics and the foreign language. In the practical part an analysis of lessons performed in mathematics with the subject of probability is carried out. The teaching was focused on playing a game with dice and deciding whether the game is fair or not. The lessons were audio taped and transcriptions of the spoken language were made. An analysis of the language, teacher's mistakes, communicational interference, proportional relations on communication of the pupils and of the...

Šulista, Marek ; Novotná, Jarmila (advisor) ; Klečková, Gabriela (referee) ; Favilli, Franco (referee) ; Nýdl, Václav (referee)
The thesis deals with the teaching of mathematics in English language as one possible application of CLIL, which indicates the non-language teaching (professional) courses in a language other than mother tongue. The work is divided into 7 chapters and a total of 8 annexes. Introductory chapters acquaint the reader with the goal of the study, selected terminology from the field of language learning and bilingualism, with CLIL - its history in the world and the Czech Republic, typical teaching strategies used in teaching CLIL, its models, benefits and research associated with the teaching of mathematics with this method. Further work presents the results of a survey of teachers of basic mathematics middle schools and mapped their experiences and views on teaching mathematics in a foreign (target) language. At the end of this chapter are specified research questions and sub-as of work. The main research questions are formulated, to what extent the influence of foreign language understanding of mathematics at an early stage in the implementation of CLIL lessons Mathematics in compliance with the scope and time spent in the classroom as a substance in a given degree in their own language. A tool for obtaining answers the research question 11a was chosen experimental selected mathematical teaching curriculum that...
