WILLMANNOVÁ, Michaela
Bachelor's thesis entitled 'A visually impaired student in the educational system'; a retrospective case study deals with the process of integrating a visually impaired boy into the mainstream of pre-school and primary education. The bachelor's thesis aims to develop an appropriate theoretical basis for the issue of education of visually impaired children and on this basis in the design of a case study to describe and analyse the educational background of a visually impaired student. The thesis is structured into two parts, theoretical and practical. The theoretical part defines the basic circuits related to the topic of visual impairment. The first chapter of the theoretical part defines a child and a student with visual impairment and the concept of visual impairment and its classification. The second chapter describes the specifics of the development of a visually impaired child in the field of cognitive functions, motor skills, and socialization. The last chapter deals with the education of visually impaired children in general. The practical part is focusing on a detailed description of the inclusive process of a visually impaired child in mainstream kindergarten and primary school. It points out the aid measures and their use in education. Qualitative research was applied to fulfill the already mentioned goals. The research is based on observations, semi-structured interviews, and document analysis. Anamnestic data were processed in detail for the sake of completeness. The research found out that the choice of including a boy into mainstream education was a suitable option. It was also found that the boy was and is provided with maximum support from his parents and the socialization in his classroom was successful. On a practical level, the information can serve as feedback for the educational institution of an integrated visually impaired student. After appropriate formal and content adjustments, the text can be used for the processing of information material for the pedagogical and parental public.
