School textbooks and their use in practice: the role of students in the evaluation of textbooks and geographical content
Kulma, Natanael ; Marada, Miroslav (advisor) ; Cimová, Tereza (referee)
The present bachelor thesis deals with the issue of school textbooks. In the theoretical part, the textbook is clearly defined in terms of its privileged position among educational resources, its internal structure and the functions to which it is adapted. Furthermore, the extent to which it is used, and the way in which it is used in practice by teachers and pupils, is mapped out. Finally, the role of the learner as the evaluative subject of textbooks is presented, and specific recommendations for research and design of textbooks with the aim of increasing their use by learners are outlined. The practical part presents insights into the background of primary school pupils in order to test the theoretical assumptions regarding pupils' experiences of textbook use, their evaluation of the textbook and their preferred geographical themes in the content of the geography textbooks.
