Mathematical skills applied to teaching of cartography at high school
Leipertová, Gabriela ; Netrdová, Pavlína (advisor) ; Polonský, Filip (referee)
LEIPERTOVÁ, G. (2010): Mathematical skills applied to teaching of cartography at high school. Department of Social Geography and Regional Development, Charles University in Prague. The present bachelor thesis focuses on application of mathematical skills in the teaching of cartography at high school. It is concerned with the role of and interdisciplinary relations between cartography and mathematics in the curriculum. The content analysis of the chosen textbooks evaluates the relations between cartography and mathematics on the basis of presence of required subject matter, its quality and the amount of practical examples. Furthermore, chapters of geographic and thematic cartography, where mathematical knowledge is applied, are defined and specified in details. The last part of the bachelor thesis deals with cartographic exercises, whose solutions require mathematical skills.

Macroregional structures of the world: representation, preception, and objectivisation
Polonský, Filip ; Novotný, Josef (advisor) ; Bičík, Ivan (referee) ; Baar, Vladimír (referee)
The thesis brings insight to the problem of geosocietal differentiation of the world and its interpretation in the schemes of (major) world regional structures. These schemes are matter of different presentation and representation and have utility in organization of both scientific and non-scientific practices. A more detailed analysis and discussion of academic approaches to global macroregionalization was provided, which was followed by an analysis of the views of so-called global actors. Assessed was also situation in Czech and Slovak education (geographical textbooks). Perceptions of regional schemes are represented by views of geography students. Struggles with objectification were related to several-variant-based consideration of internal homogeneity and external heterogeneity of macroregions. Also assessed were world economic flows, distribution of integrated power potential and its development (1950 - 2008). Conclusions bring synthesis of the findings, as well as an outline of possible future research topics.
