Comparative survey of pupil's chemistry skills at the grammar schools
Pražienka, Miroslav ; Šulcová, Renata (advisor) ; Kloučková, Jitka (referee)
Miroslav Pražienka Comparative survey of pupil's chemistry skills at the grammar schools Charles University in Prague, Faculty of Science, Department of Teaching and Didaktics of Chemistry Modern pedagogical sciences invoke a new approach to teaching, both in technical equipment and educational methods. In new teachers training, also in lifelong learning, computers (and everything connected with them) and active educational methods are preferred. In my survey, I examined these two statements and confront them with 'classical' teaching method. I prepared didactic tools (presentations, games, tests, advances) and I taught with them. At the end, pupils wrote a test and I evaluated it. The results of my survey do not show superiority in effectiveness of any of the methods, however, the results might be influenced by many factors. The obtained results can not be statistically significat because of a small research sample. Nevertheless, the survey shows that modern technical equipment and active education methods are more attractive for pupils and teachers as well, and they make (not only) chemistry education more interesting and enjoyable.

Use and effectiveness of activation methods in chemistry education
Pražienka, Miroslav ; Šulcová, Renata (advisor) ; Teplá, Milada (referee)
CHARLES UNIVERSITY IN PRAGUE - Faculty of Science Department of Teaching and Didactics of Chemistry Albertov 3, 128 40 Praha 2, Czech Republic Use and effectiveness of activation methods in chemistry education Bc. Miroslav Pražienka mprazienka@seznam.cz Executed pedagogical survey reflects the requirements of modern pedagogy and didactics - the teacher should have a new approach to teaching, both from a technical standpoint, both in the methods. At present, preparation of future teachers, but also in lifelong adult education teachers, computers are preferred, modern electronics (and everything associated with them) and such methods, where the pupil is actively involved in teaching and not just a passive "recipient". For the purposes of my thesis was, therefore, a wide range of teaching aids (PowerPoint presentations, worksheets, educational teaching games, demonstration experiments, tests, including methodologies and manuals), through which pupils were taught. Before and after instruction was given them knowledge and skills test, which was then evaluated. They were also sampled pupils from other primary schools and the results were compared. At the beginning of the survey were established two hypotheses (knowledge and skills gradually decreases with increasing time from the subject and taught for a...

Survey of the pupil's skills by PISA-research connected with IBSE
Pražienka, Miroslav ; Čtrnáctová, Hana (referee)
CHARLES UNIVERSITY IN PRAGUE - Faculty of Science Department of Teaching and Didactics of Chemistry Albertov 3, 128 40 Praha 2, Czech Republic Survey of the pupils' skills according to PISA-reserch connected with Inquiry Based Science Education Mgr. Miroslav Pražienka prazienkam@gymlovo.cz The described topic of the testing of the pupils and modern methods of teaching the science subjects connect two trends in Czech and European schools. Nowadays the methods of the modern education have been promoted in the proces of preparation of the future teachers but also in the lifelong learning of the teachers. The thesis is focused on Inquiry Based Science Education. This modern method is connected with the international testing PISA and is described in theoretical part. Both are integrated in practical part and testing. After careful studying of materials and the method of PISA, there were elaborated the testing tasks with inquiry skills for experimental part of this work. After the first trial testing, the materials were modified and prepared for real testing. The testing was carried out on four schools (secondary school near Prague, grammar schools in Prague and in Lovosice), four classes and 101 fifteen- years-old pupils were included. The results of the testing were represented in graphs and discussed....
