The output of this diploma thesis is a teaching material for financial literacy classes at lower secondary schools. The content of the material is consistent with financial literacy standards defined in "Current trends in teaching financial literacy for elementary school 2nd stage". These standards are also implemented in the Framework Educational Program. The material consists of a theoretical background, set of problems and a suggestion of teaching methods.

The aim of this thesis was to examine the financial knowledge of older people as a vulnerable group of the population of the Czech Republic. For the analysis of the survey were selected.

Initially, the definition of mapping, its objectives and the paths taken to its accomplishment are discussed. The objective is to analyze the contributions of the technologies in graduate academic productions about Financial Education, in the context of Mathematics Education, through a meta-synthesis, in order to identify how this topic is being discussed in the researches and the role of technology in these studies. They point to several solutions and we have identified suggestions and taken notes of the difficulties and the need to use technologies to improve the teaching of Financial Education / Este trabalho apresenta o mapeamento de trinta dissertações e teses que tratam do tema Educação Financeira no contexto do Ensino e da Educação Matemática no período entre 2014 e 2016 com o objetivo de identificar se, e como, a tecnologia é considerada nestes trabalhos. Inicialmente, aborda-se a definição de mapeamento, seus objetivos e os caminhos percorridos para a sua realização. O objetivo é analisar as contribuições das tecnologias nas produções acadêmicas stricto sensu acerca da Educação Financeira, no contexto da Educação Matemática, por meio de uma metassíntese, na perspectiva de identificar como esse tema está sendo discutido nas pesquisas e o papel da tecnologia nestes estudos. Os trabalhos apontam soluções diversas e constatamos sugestões e apontamentos das dificuldades e da necessidade do uso de tecnologias para melhoria do ensino da Educação Financeira

The thesis' goal is to define basic terms associated with financial literacy - to clarify the important and somewhat inseparable role financial education plays in terms of financial literacy. Furthemore it aims to measure the current level of financial literacy achieved by students of public high schools and public universities. The theoretical section is aimed at different definitions of the term financial literacy, the significance of financial eduction in the Czech Republic and the related national financial education strategy. Its further aim is the current level of financial literacy and the role of subjects raising that level. The practical section consists of research survey via a questionare released at public high schools and public universities and its evaluation and comparison to recent survey by the Department of finance. The survey points to a relatively low level of financial literacy and the need for education in financial matters.

The diploma thesis "Financial literacy of pupils at grammar school" deals with the attitudes of students to the issue of financial literacy and the level of their knowledge. It focuses on individual components of financial literacy and key factors which influence and shape the students' knowledge and attitudes. Comparing available literature sources the definition of financial literacy is discussed in the theoretical part. The theoretical part also includes the way financial education is regulated in the Czech Republic. The practical part using a descriptive statistical analysis presents results received from the questionnaire distributed among pupils of the grammar school. Based on the results four hypotheses were set and their validity is tested. The evaluation and discussion parts are incorporated in the work.

The diploma thesis focuses on financial literacy analysis amongst high school students. Introductory chapters are based on definitions of key words essential to examine this topic, on the question of financial literacy significance and consumer protection (and its connection to financial literacy). Another part of the thesis investigates the process of financial education implementation to framework educational programs which represent obligatory foundation for elementary and high schools when creating the curricula. Crucial part of the thesis is financial literacy level examination performed at high schools and comparison of this level among participating schools.

This thesis deals with the financial literacy and its teaching at Czech primary schools. First, a brief summary of activities supporting financial education is presented. In the second part, there are some of the conclusions of research the level of financial knowledge and also available teaching materials described. The main chapter analyzes the project "Rozumíme penězům" and the textbook "Finanční gramotnost pro 2. stupeň ZŠ". Content and methodological point of view are the most important. The thesis also determines whether both materials meet requirements of Financial Literacy Standards and PISA.

This Financial Literacy Program Model is a proposed solution to the problem of financial illiteracy among the working poor. Over 80 percent of adults in America are not financially literate, yet more than half believe themselves to be (OECD, 2005). No community is more adversely affected by this fallacy than the working poor. Earning income, yet living below the poverty line, this group is as deceived as any other by the misconception that increased income is their sole remedy rather than a small part of the complex equation greatly influenced by financial literacy. Drawing upon a review of related literature, observation of a successful program, and interviews, three barriers to financial literacy education are presented and addressed in this program’s design. 1) Overblown financial self-efficacy spawns the popular belief held by most financially illiterate individuals that they are financially literate (OECD, 2005). 2) Lack of differentiation is prevalent. Existing programs cover basic financial topics with a one size fits all approach. 3) Although attrition rates are high, there are few motivational interventions in place within currently existing programs. These obstacles combined with the unique set of circumstances faced by the working poor exacerbate financial illiteracy and its related issues. This program was designed as part of the I Am Potential, Inc initiative (IAP) – an effort to assist individuals who desire to enhance their lives. In particular, IAP targets underserved communities. The “I Am Potential” Financial Literacy Program Model and Implementation Plan addresses these issues through instructional design with pre- and post-treatment financial self efficacy and motivation assessments along with differential instructional delivery methods, including a variety of modes and durations available for a distinctive learner population. The iv model accommodates the subsequent addition of coursework for enhancement in other life domains.
