This bachelor's thesis is about discovering motivational factors that drive students to become chemistry teachers. The theoretical part firstly talks about choosing a profession with a science background, it focuses on factors that affect the career decision-making of students and picking a job in a science environment.

The research part is devoted to gathering and analyzing data that were collected using a FIT-Choice Scale questionnaire. Said questionnaire was firstly translated to the Czech language.

Jenčuš, Henrich ; Šmejkal, Petr (advisor) ; Stratilová Urválková, Eva (referee)
A new database of chemical experiments was proposed in this work. This database would be oriented on experiments done with probeware either as a demonstration in a class or as a microcomputer based laboratory. To gather information about the aspects of the experiments that are significant for the teachers choice of inclusion of the experiment into their class, a survey amongst the teacher has been done in two steps - a series of interviews and a questionnaire. A review of current experiment databases in czech language and the materials contained within was also conducted. As a part of this work, twelve sample experiments have been created to be added to the new database.
