Dynamic approach to Educational and Psychological assessment and Intervation in Kindergarten.
Krejčová, Kristýna ; Šírová, Eva (advisor) ; Kucharská, Anna (referee) ; Hříbková, Lenka (referee)
Dynamic assessment constitutes an alternative diagnostic approach, focused on revelation of the tested person's learning potential, which is reached and observed via the emphasis on the process of the achievement. It aims at meaningful connection with the intervention that immediately makes use of diagnostic findings to support the development of an individual's abilities. This work summarizes essential information about the mentioned diagnostic trend - its characteristic, a definition compared to conventional ways of testing and historical development. It investigates some possibilities of its utilization, especially in the area of preschool diagnostic and education, and creates a basis for an instrument of the effective prevention of educational and behavioural difficulties during the first years of the school attendance.

The comparison of standardized testing and dynamic diagnostics of pupils with specific learning disabilities while using the Rey-Osterrieth complex figure
Baborová, Aneta ; Sotáková, Hana (advisor) ; Vídršperková, Lenka (referee)
The thesis deals with the comparison of standardized testing, and dynamic diagnostics of pupils with specific learning disabilities while using the Rey-Osterrieth complex figure. The thesis aimed to find out the advantages and disadvantages of dynamic diagnostics of pupils with specific learning disabilities while using the above-mentioned diagnostic tool. The implementation of research is based on the theoretical part, which consists of two large areas. These areas are standardized testing/dynamic diagnostics and specific learning/behavioral disabilities. The aspects that most correlate with the empirical part are highlighted. From the first area it is specifically the critique of standardized testing, dynamic diagnostics, the theoretical framework of dynamic diagnostics, the dynamic approach in consulting practice, and the critique of dynamic diagnostics. The second area concerns the types of specific learning disabilities, their social context, and specific behavioral disabilities. Research data were obtained using the Rey-Osterrieth complex figure and the WISC-III intelligence scale. The WISC-III intelligence scale was essential for determination of the research set, for the interpretation of the data based on cognitive profile, and for the negative interference in the testing using the...

Dynamic assessment in practice of school psychologist
Mrázková, Marína ; Lucká, Barbora (advisor) ; Kučerová, Olga (referee)
This bachelor thesis introduce dynamic assessment as an approach, which could be part of the practice of a school psychologist, and tries to figure out, whether, and to what extent is this method applied to school psychologists' everyday job. The data was collected and analyzed through the method of qualitative research from semi-structured interviews with seven school psychologists. The results of the research imply that school psychologists do utilize principals of dynamic assessment to a certain extent, but in majority they don't use it systematically. This resume is in agreement with the research, which was carried out under the project RAMPS-VIP III. In the resume, the author comes with the hypothesis that it might be useful if school psychologists learnt more about this method already during their studies - particularly those of them who potentially aspire for a career in schooling or counseling. KEYWORDS Dynamic assessment, school psychology, learning difficulties, mediated learning experience

Options how to use a dynamic diagnosis to help pupils suffering mild mental retardation
Marečková, Eva ; Felcmanová, Lenka (advisor) ; Hradilová, Tereza (referee)
The thesis focuses on dynamic evaluation of younger pupils with mild mental retardation by application of a Visual Perception Test, which evaluates certain areas of sight perception. It is an alternative diagnostic method focused on rational intervention, which applies diagnostically obtained findings and results in search for adequate assistance and support of the particular pupil. In the theoretical section, the text focuses on pupils with mild mental retardation, their specific features and education. It introduces basic findings on dynamic diagnostics and dynamic approach and its application in support of pupils with reduced intellect. In the empirical section, the research seeks to verify whether the test, which evaluates selected aspects of sight perception, is a suitable tool for dynamic examination of children with mild mental disabilities and whether and in what form of intervention, the pupils who have been included in the research project experience different results in the pre-test and post-test. Based on the detected results, the Visual Perception Test appears to be a very effective tool in dynamic diagnostics for individuals with mild mental retardation. In the conclusion and the recommendations, the work presents the detected suitable forms of intervention for each particular pupil.

Utilization of a support program Maxik for preschool children in the prevention of learning disabilities
Havránková, Lenka ; Felcmanová, Lenka (advisor) ; Komorná, Marie (referee)
This thesis deals with the topic "Utilization of a support program Maxik for preschool children in the prevention of learning disabilities. " The aim of this thesis is theoretical definition of specific learning disorders, deficits of partial functions and relatively new trend of dynamic diagnostics. The object of the actual research is to assess the individual displacement of each of preschool children in response to the intervention by the stimulus program MAXIK and to assess the effectiveness of this program with each child in terms of prevention of specific learning disabilities. The problematic of specific learning disabilities in terms of etiology, occurrence and their manifestations is defined in the theoretical part. A big part of the theoretical part involves a chapter dealing with partial functions, their diagnosis, prevention and suggestions for development. Last but not least, the topics of dynamic diagnostics and stimulus programs are covered in the theoretical part. The empirical part contains qualitative research, which focuses on discovering the use and effectiveness of the stimulus program MAXIK with seven preschool children and particularly studying individual shifts within these children. The results are presented in the form of casuistry. Keywords: specific learning disorders,...

Use of the Test of Visual Perception in Dynamic Assessment
Studená, Gabriela ; Felcmanová, Lenka (advisor) ; Šumníková, Pavlína (referee)
The subject of this thesis "Possibilities of a visual perception test within dynamic diagnos- tics" is to find out how is it possible to work with preschool children by dynamically ori- ented approach with Visual perception test. The thesis contains theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part is focused on explaining the foundations of dynamic diagnostics, development of children's visual perception and the possibilities of its diagnosis in the pre- school age. In the empirical part of the work are through case studies presented individual cases of children with whom research investigation was realised. The conclusion summa- ries the recommendations for the intervention phase of dynamic diagnostics using Visual perception test. Data were collected using participant observation, interviews with the chil- dren, product analysis and by standardised test.

Dynamic assessment of preschool children -Application of Cognitive Function Scale (ACFS)
Drápalová, Alena ; Morávková Krejčová, Lenka (advisor) ; Mertin, Václav (referee)
The aim of this thesis is to verify the practical utility of the Application of Cognitive Functions Scale (ACFS) to determin cognitive development of pre-school children. The theoretical part looks into specifics of the pre-school period and introduces the precise meaning of dynamic assessment, which is typical by its format consisting of three phases: pre- test - intervention - post-test. This part outlines the ACFS method and the influence of an adult on the process of mediated learning experience, which is a vital part of the intervention phase of the dynamic assessment. The empirical part describes the use of dynamic assessment and examines the possibilities of the ACFS method to observe the potential of cognitive functions development of pre-school children. The results show that the ACFS method is well-adapted to identify the potential of cognitive functions development of children and it provides specific and efficient guidelines for further development of their cognitive skills. Keywords: pre-school period, dynamic assessment, mediated learning experience, ACSF method, cognitive development of children
