Navrátilová, Tereza ; Odstrčilová, Klára (advisor) ; Jirák, Jan (referee)
The aim of this master's thesis was to inquire into media education in Prague's high schools using the qualitative methods from the point of view of its two main participants - students and teachers. The main reason for focusing on these students was that they achieved the highest scores in media literacy among their peers from Czechia. For the purpose of the analysis, data were collected using in-depth semi-structured interviews with teachers from Prague's high schools, a focus group with second-year students from Gymnázium Na Zatlance, and an online questionnaire that was completed by 55 students from several high schools in Prague. The data were subsequently analyzed using the open coding method and thematic analysis. The results indicate that despite being classified as cross cutting topic in the Framework Education Programme by the Ministry of Education, more than half of the respondents reported receiving no media education. Furthermore, the results reveal that inclusion of media education in lectures depends mainly on the teachers and their personal motivation to incorporate it. On the other hand, teachers feel that they lack sufficient space and support from the school management. When media education is present in schools, it is mainly treated as a cross cutting topic rather than a...

Working with School Curriculum and Teaching Geography in Secondary Schools (Lower Secondary Education)
KALINA, Matyáš
The year 2007 marked the transition to a two-level system of educational documents for Czech education, which many described as a revolution. To this day, however, it is evident that for many schools and teachers this change took place only on paper, which also negatively affects the teaching of geography. This work provides an insight into the topics of working with school curriculum and teaching geography from the point of view of lower secondary education geography teachers. The theoretical part is devoted to the history and current system of Czech educational documents. The theory of geography teaching is also outlined. In the practical part, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 21 geography teachers, which made it possible to deepen the understanding of teaching geography and working with school curriculum. Due to the small number of interviewed teachers, the results cannot be considered representative, despite this, the work confirmed the formality of school curricula to a certain level. In many cases, the work of teachers and schools with school curriculum remains very shallow. The character of geography teaching contains significant differences among the teachers, the Czech educational system is highly differentiated. The research also pointed out the weak positions of human geography and fieldwork in the geography education at lower secondary education. The semi-structured interviews contained a total of 18 segments, 9 on working with school curriculum and 9 on selected aspects of geography teaching.
