Syrovátková, Tereza ; Kalivodová, Eva (advisor) ; Mraček, David (referee)
This bachelor thesis is divided into two major parts: the partial translation of Erving Goffman's book Asylums published in 1961. This book covers the topic of total institutions, inmates living and staff working with them, while also covering the relationship between the two social groups. The translation is followed by a commentary that provides an analysis of the original text based on the model introduced by Christiane Nord. The commentary also contains a description of the chosen translation method and a summary of the major translation problems. Finally it covers translation shifts that occurred during the translation process.
Continuing Professional Development of Nurses: a public policy perspective.
Syrovátková, Tereza ; Mouralová, Magdalena (advisor) ; Dobiášová, Karolína (referee)
This diploma thesis deals with a topic of continuing professional development of nurses in the Czech Republic. The text is divided into two mutually connected dimensions. The first one focuses on a nurse as a stakeholder with certain motivations, strategies, and attitudes. The second dimension discusses the existing system of continuing professional development for nurses in terms of its implementation, form, as well as dysfunctional elements, and future challenges. The thesis shows a connection between the above dimensions. The formalised system of continuing professional development is supposed to affect nursing profession. At the same time, nurses are expected to be involved in the decision-making process. These assumptions are faced with the reality in the thesis. A qualitative study among nurses and experts leads to a conclusion that the current system does not fulfil nurses' both professional (in terms of quality and relevance of the education provided) and personal (financial and time burden) needs. Thus it hardly achieves its original goals. Should the system be changed, the nurses must engage in the decision-making process, which they currently do not. The continuing professional development might serve as one of the solutions to the insufficient political participation of nurses. Despite...

Education of physically disabled Children
Syrovátková, Tereza ; Šanderová, Jadwiga (advisor) ; Čada, Karel (referee)
This bachelor's thesis focuses on the problem of education for children with physical disabilities. It discusses the possibility of their integration into the mainstream society and it opens a question of a special educational needs school as an acceptable alterna- tive on the way to a full inclusion. Through qualitative case study, it verifies Tom Schmid's idea that this kind of school may be a possible option only if it is not a total institution as E. Goffman puts it, it keeps the social functions of a school and respects student's individuality while concerning the handicap as part of his personality. The text specifies basic school functions, defines physical disabled people and their educa- tional opportunities and it describes the concept of total institution by E. Goffman as well as latter authors. The case study, based on participant observation, interviews and official document analysis, interprets totality of the institution in relation to its closedness that is not demonstrated by physical barriers as in E. Goffman's concept. The school possesses other features to bind its inmates within the walls. The research findings are interpreted in context of integration. It also looks at the conditions of ac- ceptability of special school education proposed by Tom Schmid.
