Towards the incorporation of environmental education in the Namibian Secondary School CurriculumKanyimba, Alex Tubawene 01 1900 (has links)
Environmental education (EE) as an approach to all education is needed to be
incorporated in all the subjects of the school curriculum. In Namibia, there are Ministerial
documents that support the incorporation of education About, In/ Through and For the
environment within the curriculum. Even though there are documents that support this,
EE continues to suffer barriers that hinder its effective incorporation into the curriculum.
The findings reveal that EE in Namibia is incorporated into the traditional environmental
subject homes only. The barriers that prevent the incorporation of EE into the Namibian
broad curriculum for secondary schools are, amongst others, the lack of adequate teacher
education programmes and the lack of interdepartmental collaboration at school level.
These barriers and many others have been identified and discussed in detail in this
investigation. Measures are recommended to ensure effective incorporation of EE in the
Namibian broad curriculum for secondary schools. / Educational Studies / M. Ed. (Environmental Education)

Úroveň základních matematických dovedností aspirantů studia geografie bakalářského stupně / The level of basic mathematical skills of aspirants studying geography of the bachelor degreeHrubá, Kateřina January 2018 (has links)
This diploma thesis deals with problems of mathematical skills. Unlike previous research carried out in Czech education, this diploma thesis focuses on university students. Specifically, the focus is on aspirants of the bachelor degree studying geography at the Faculty of Science of Charles University in Prague. The main aim of this work is to determine the mathematical skills, with which students have the greatest problems, if these problematical skills change over time, whether they are problematic independently of the group of the students or each student group has problems with other mathematical skills. In order to meet the goals the credit tests of mathematical geography were used. Because this type of test is not commonly used to determine the level of mathematical skills, it was necessary to develop an own assessment methodology. In total, 1920 credit tests were analyzed from the six academic years 2011/2012 to 2016/2017. The results show that the most problematic mathematical skills are "unit transfers", "using the appropriate formula in the correct form" and "calculating the angles". GeKa + FGG and UZ students also have problems with "formulating a verbal answer or reasoning". All studied study fields did together the smallest proportion of mistakes in mathematical skill "expression the...

Učitelé a mediální výchovaTRNKOVÁ, Denisa January 2019 (has links)
This thesis deals with the issue of media education and teachers who teach the class. The first part of the thesis is devoted to a theoretical definition of the cross-curricular theme of media education, its historical development and the gradual establishment of the topic in Czech curriculum and the subsequent introduction into schools in the form of a cross-sectional topic that concerns grammar schools and not only them. Attention is paid to textbooks, publications and Internet links and courses available to teachers. Part of the attention is devoted to the latest research on this topic. The research part of the thesis presents the results of my qualitative research, which outlines patterns of approaches, opinions and attitudes of media education teachers at selected grammar schools in South Bohemia. The thesis deals with the question of who are the teachers, who teach media education, whether they are already prepared for this topic from the university, or whether they had to educate themselves and what are their most frequent approvals. Only recent university graduates, unlike their older colleagues, have had the opportunity to become acquainted with media education in their higher education. Their older colleagues did not have it so easy and had to deal with this task and topic during their teaching. There are different views on media education among young and senior teachers. As a rule, every young teacher is enthusiastic and positively perceives the importance of media education.
