Epiphytic lichens of the Czech Republic
Pelechová, Kateřina ; Svoboda, David (advisor) ; Peksa, Ondřej (referee)
This bachelor thesis researches the works of the years 1908-2013, which deal with the occurrence of epiphytic, i.e. growing on tree species, lichens in the Czech Republic. In the introduction there is briefly interpreted definition of lichens and epiphytes and the relationship between lichens and heir environment (with an emphasis on air pollution) is described. The main part is devoted to the processing of data found in the literature - when and on which tree species is the lichen growing - and is divided into two periods (1908-1970 and 1971-2013). The frequency of lichen species changes between periods - links between lichens and tree species and preference of the species and its changes over time, changes in preference of pH of bark of trees and tree species with the highest number of species of lichens. The study contains a list of 429 lichen species occurring on tree species in the Czech Republic. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

The Evaluation of the Geological Educational Program and its Comparison with the Teaching in the Classroom
Pelechová, Kateřina ; Dvořáková, Radka (advisor) ; Poupová, Jana (referee)
The thesis is concerned with appraising the educational program of the Geology Teaching Center Říčany, in particular its influence on the pupils' attitudes towards geology. The benefits of field trips and outdoor education have been observed many times; however, mostly pupils' knowledge or skills were taken into consideration while their attitudes have been investigated fairly recently. Moreover, geology is regarded by pupils as 'the more boring part of nature' and hence I was interested in whether (and how) the non-standard form of education can change the pupils' attitudes towards geology. The objectives of the thesis were 1) to investigate what the pupils' attitudes towards geology are, and 2) to decide whether (and how) the specific geology field trip affects these attitudes and to compare this influence with the one of standard class education. The third, last objective consisted in stating whether the field trip in question will help pupils to understand how sundry topographic features were created. The main research question was stated as follows: How will the field trip affect the pupils' attitudes towards geology in comparison with standard class education covering the same topics? According to results of my investigation, pupils regard geology as the most useless and unpopular branch of...

Prevention of non-drug addictions
PELECHOVÁ, Kateřina
Non-drug addictions are part of us, including children and youth. It is important to realize that non-drug addictions influence us and are underestimated despite their seriousness. They constitute serious social-pathological phenomenon of the present. This Bachelor Thesis deals particularly with prevention and the present situation of socially undesired behaviour that is very widespread in current society. With pathological gambling, mobile phone addiction, virtual addictions, alimentary disorders and sect addiction. The goal of the research was to map the representation of individual phenomena of risk-loaded behaviour within primary prevention in schools and school institutions and to assess the efficiency of the prevention applied in the area of non-drug addictions. The goal of the Thesis was met. I came to the following conclusions through my research: Hypothesis 1: The issue of virtual addictions is insufficiently represented in primary prevention as against prevention of drug addictions, was confirmed. Hypothesis 2: Primary prevention of non-drug addictions is inefficient in schools and school institutions, was confirmed. The introduction of the theoretical part deals with several basic concepts; then it characterizes individual non-drug addictions. The conclusion of the theoretical part deals with prevention, particularly primary prevention and the system of organization and direction of primary prevention of socially pathological phenomena in pupils. I used quantitative research to process the practical part, and questionnaire technique to collect data. I performed questionnaire investigation in 2nd classes of a grammar school, a secondary school and a training institution of České Budějovice. The research set consisted of 73 respondents. The practical part of my Thesis deals particularly with the analysis of the experiences of the respondents with socially undesirable behaviour and timely primary prevention in schools with regard to individual kinds of socially undesirable behaviour.
