The thesis adresses the play in role during spontaneous activities children of preschool age in the theoretical and practical dimension. In my mind I have play and activities, where children are not organized or managed and have possibility to freely decided what to do. The introduction of theoretical part of thesis focuses on the importace and meaning of play in human life with insight into the history of games and lists some of its theories. The work is based on theory pf Jean Piaget, who conect the child's play with its intellectual evolution. The second chapter deals with the specific personality of the child of preschool age from the perspective of developmental psychology and development of society focusing on current needs of child to play. The next part of the thesis is related to basic characteristics of current- day nursery schools with respect pre - revolutionary period. The fourth chapter focuses on the meaning of spontaneous activities in nursery school. It identifies the role of adult in these activities, the influence of individual and social differenties of children on play and how influence heterogeneity and homogeneity of this group. The theoretical part concludes with a chapter about the game in the role and its significance for pre-school child. The practical part of the thesis...

My diploma thesis on the Using board games in the Czech language lesson in primary school is divided into two parts. The first part deals with theoretical starting points based on experiential and constructivist pedagogy. It focuses on the game from several points of view - as a free activity and joy during life and as a didactic method in which pupils' education is realized, a class climate is formed and a board game is applied. Further there are described places where you can play board games outside the school environment. The second part is devoted to the production of my own board games and their subsequent use in the teaching of the Czech language in the fourth year of primary school. In conclusion, I reflect on their suitability for teaching, highlight their advantages, possible pitfalls and suitable variations and forms of gradation. KEYWORDS Game, board game, Czech language, experiential pedagogy, constructivist pedagogy, activation methods, pupil, teaching, primary school, own experience and enjoyment

Pre-school age is a very important period for all children because at this time they gain most of their basic skills, knowledge, habits and experience. The fundamentals of their lifestyle and free time spending is made up in this period too. In my thesis I would like to highlight the big importance of leisure time education as the essential means of an art creativity development for pre-school children. In this work I specialize in an art creativity development in particular. My work is devided into two parts {--} the theoretical and the practical one. In the theoretical part I aim generally at the education and upbringing of pre-school children. Here I deal with children´s development of the aesthetic education, creativity and fantasy. I try to penetrate more into the world of children´s free time, interests and visual games. I also remembered to mention the children´s motivation and the necessity of a suitable setting for doing their free time activities. Further I give description on general rules of children´s development, their socialization and temperament. I shortly deal with the pedagogues´characters, their relation-ships to children and visual art and the way of their teaching as well. The core of my thesis is the second - practical part, in which all findings are demonstrated in the creative project About the air (O Vzduchu). The project should contribute to children´s development of positive approach to the nature and coun-tryside and to more prosperous emotional apprehension and experience. I try to use the features of an aesthetic, motoric, literary and dramatic education in all my project. In the thesis conclusion I state all results discovered in the course of the project implementation.

Sistemas complexos na indústria nuclear, aeroespacial, química, elétrica entre outras possuem hoje em dia equipamentos e sistemas com níveis de confiabilidade que tem atendido adequadamente a sociedade. Entretanto, a operação e manutenção destes sistemas não dependem exclusivamente do desempenho intrínseco dos correspondentes equipamentos, dependem também da ação humana. Grandes acidentes no passado recente como Chernobyl, Bhopal, da nave Challenger e os grandes apagões no Brasil, colocaram em evidência a necessidade de redução do erro humano em sistemas complexos. A análise da confiabilidade humana surge assim como um apoio para a análise destes sistemas de operação e manutenção. Desde a década de 80 alguns avanços foram surgindo no estudo da confiabilidade humana. Técnicas como THERP, ATHEANA, CREAM e IDAC, se consolidaram ao longo do tempo como boas aplicações práticas para estudar, medir e prever o erro humano. Porém os fatores de desempenho utilizados em quase todas as técnicas supracitadas, tem se mostrado difíceis de serem estimados de um ponto de vista particular. Além disso, as particularidades do setor Hidroelétrico de Potência, definidas nos Procedimentos de Rede do Operador Nacional do Sistema (ONS) e nos instrumentos normativos da Agencia Reguladora ANEEL têm levado a necessidade de uma taxonomia que possa se adaptar a este importante e estratégico setor. Nesta tese, é proposta uma taxonomia e um modelo da sequência do processo de erro, para avaliação deste erro humano especificamente concebido para atender ao contexto de operação e manutencão do Sistema Hidroelétrico de Potência. Para ilustrar a nova taxonomia, foram coletados e analisados dados de cerca de dez anos de registro de erro humano de uma empresa de geração e transmissão de energia elétrica brasileira. Foram coletados 605 relatórios de desligamento por erro humano desde 1998 até 2009. Uma metodologia BBN-Base para a quantificação do erro humano é também discutida. A taxonomia e o modelo da sequência do processo de erro humano tanto quanto o modelo BBN-Based são ilustrados via um exemplo de uma aplicação no contexto de uma indústria Brasileira Hidroelétrica de Potência.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------With advances in hardware reliability engineering in the last 30 years, we have seen equipment and complex systems with very low levels of failure. Complex systems in the nuclear industry, aerospatiale sector, chemical industries, electrical industries and others now have equipment and systems with levels of reliability that has adequately served the society. However, the operation and maintenance of these systems do not rely solely on intrinsec performance of the corresponding equipment, but they also depend on human action. Major accidents in the recent past such Chernobyl, Bhopal, the Challenger shuttle and major recent power blackouts in Brazil, highlighted the need to reduce human error in complex systems. The human reliability assessment emerges as a support to the analisys of the operation and maintenance of these type of systems. Since the late 80th some advances have emerged in the study of human reliability. Techniques such as THERP, ATHEANA, CREAM and IDAC, have been consolidated over time for the study, measure and prediction of human error. However performance shaped factors used in almost all the aforementioned techniques have proven difficult to be estimated from a practical standpoint. In addition, the specifics of the Hydroelectric Power Industry defined in the Grid Procedures of the National System Operator (Operador Nacional so Sistema, ONS) and the regulatory instruments of ANEEL (Agencia Nacional de Energia Eletrica) Regulatory Agency have led to the necessity of a taxonomy that can adapt for this important strategic sector. In this thesis, it is proposed a taxonomy and model of error sequence process for assessment of human error specifically designed to meet the context of operation and maintenance of Hydroelectric Power System. To illustrate the new taxonomy it was collected and analyzed data from about ten years of human error records related to the generation and transmission of Hydroelectric Power Company in Brazil. It was collected 605 reports by human error shutdown from 1998 to 2009. A BBN-Base methodology for the quantification of human error is also discusses. The taxonomy, model for error sequence process as well as the BBN-Based model are illustrated via an example of application in the context of the Brazilian Hydroelectric Power Industry.

My diploma essay is devoted to games as away of education which can be used in Czech realia education of adult foreigners. A part target is to describe the situation among teachers of Czech as a foreign language. In the focus of interest, there are questions how to treat Czech realia education, which ways of education to use and how to feel the game as a way of studying while using in this type of education. The main target of my essay is to find out how successful the suggested revision and motivation games are in the Czech realia education and if they can bring something new for students. The first part of my diploma essay is devoted to realia description, their classification and problems connected with organisation of this education type. In the rest of chapters, the game is treated as a way of education which can be even used in Czech realia studies. In the empiric part of my essay, I used an electronic questionnaire to find out the opinions of teachers of Czech as a foreign language which they have on Czech realia studies and using game there. The research dates serve as further motivation item for realisation of the second research which is devoted to suggestion of revision and motivation games for Czech realia studies, their practising and evaluation from the point of view to school results...

This dissertation thesis focuses on the use of drama in English language teaching. In the theoretical part the field of drama in ELT is elaborated in terms of its principles, methods and examples of practical use. Based on the outlined theoretical basis the technique radio role play is introduced. The main aim of the thesis was to identify and verify possibilities and limitations of the technique applied in English language teaching. To meet the aim of the thesis action research was used as the research design employing a range of data collection methods, e.g. questionnaires with pupils; interviews with pupils, teachers and critical friends. Content analysis was used to process the collected data and the analysis was further interpreted with the support of contextual information regarding educational setting in which the research was carried out and contextual material (lesson plans, teaching material, audio and video recordings). Within the four cycles of action research initial hypotheses, which were formulated before the actual research, were verified. The research findings show that the radio role playing contributes to the development of speaking as a language skill (mainly fluency and spontaneity of speech), improvisation skills, creativity and non-verbal communication. The main limitation...
