Nové formy cestovního ruchu ve Španělsku se zaměřením na českou klientelu / New Forms of Tourism in Spain with Focus on Czech Clients

Kopecká, Romana January 2010 (has links)
Spain currently represents one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world. Tourism is its important economic sector that is strongly reflected in the Spanish economy. Therefore an apparent interest could be noticed in maintain Spain competitive in the field of tourism not only in Mediterranean destinations but Europe-wide or world-wide as well. To understand the current state of tourism in this country it is neccessary to result from historical context and understand the current problems and their causes well by thus. Spanish competent institutions do realise this and new products and forms of tourism are being conswquently expanded now. Another impulse is a change of motivation of participants, which could be designated as being different in the 21st century. Consequently the traditional forms of tourism are insufficient to meet their needs. Especially the mainland of Spain is diverse and the great conditions for creating new forms of tourism ? cultural, rural, sports, business ? could be found there. For Czech clients Spain represents very popular destination for sea holidays. The thesis will focus on the mainland of Spain to determine whether the travel agencies take due account of new forms of tourism expansion in Spain whether these are included in their portfolios and whether Czech clients...

Tabasam Kwa Maisha : A Creative School in Tanzania / Tabasam Kwa Maisha : En Kreativ Skola i Tanzania

Augustyniak, Sandra January 2013 (has links)
This is not yet another ordinary primary school in Tanzania. This is an idea about a new way of learning where architecture and its materiality create inspiring spaces. Set in between 3 small villages in an area heavily affected by AIDS and Malaria the aim is to make good quality education viable for everyone.The idea is to learn by doing. The compound will have several workshops for practical education and music and dance will play a central role. With a smaller scale and more intimate green in-between spaces it resembles more of a small village than an ordinary Tanzanian school. Smart solutions with green roofs solve the over heating problem by the strong sun, as well as filter rain water that is collected for use. A semi-open bamboo facade on the inner walls of the compound create natural ventilation as well as let daylight in. / Det här är ingen vanlig ny skola i Tanzania. Det är en ide om ett nytt sätt av lärande där arkitekturen och dess materialitet skapar inspirerande miljöer. Med en position mellan tre små byar som är starkt utsatta för AIDS och Malaria är tanken att skolan ska göra god kvalitativ undervisning tillgänglig för alla. Här lär man sig genom praktisk undervisning. Skolområdet kommer att ha flera verkstäder för praktisk undervisning och dans och musik kommer att spela en central roll. Med en mindre skala och mer intima gröna rum mellan byggnaderna påminner skolan mer om en liten by än en vanlig Tanzaniansk skola. Smarta lösningar med gröna tak löser problem med överhettning av stark sol och filtrering av regnvatten som samlas upp i behållare för att användas. En uppluckrad bambufasad på områdets innerväggar skapar naturlig ventilation och insläpp av dagsljus.

ATT DELTA ELLER ATT INTE DELTA : - En kvalitativ fallstudie om gymnasieelevers politiska deltagande

Hansson, Jesper January 2022 (has links)
This thesis has attempted to understand and deepen our knowledge of political participationamong students in upper secondary education. The thesis has explored potential motives to participate, or not to participate, what strategies they would use if they were to hypothetically participate, and furthermore how their political behavior relates to their expectations on democracy. Data were collected through semi-structured interview with 16 upper secondarystudents which was divided into three focus groups. The results imply different reasons forwhy they would, or would not participate politically. The most prominent reasons were frustration, norms, and fear. These reasons are inhibiting them from participating politically. The strategies they would utilize if they would want to change something politically concernboth collective and individual forms of participation. However, individual forms seem to be preferred, especially when it comes to social media. The simplicity and its ability to mobilizewith small resources make social media an attractive alternative among these youths. Participation in elections is important for them as citizens since the election is regarded as their opportunity to change within the scope of democracy. Likewise, participation in elections is an act they expect from other citizens. The result indicates that these students’political passivity is not explained by their lack of trust in democracy. Passivity can rather be described in more optimistic terms where a political interest exists and is nourished continuously, but they do not consider themselves to have enough reasons to act.

Porovnání výsledků motorických testů hráček volejbalu VK Rakovník s výběrem hráček SCM stejného věku / The Comparison of the results of motor tests of VK Rakovník volleyball players with a selection of SCM players of the same age

Bechnerová, Monika January 2021 (has links)
Title: The Comparison of the results of motor tests of VK Rakovník volleyball players with a selection of SCM players of the same age Objectives: The aim of the work is to analyze and compare the results of motor tests in players VK Rakovník - volleyball club, z.s. and SCM players of the same age. Methods: The datas measured by VK Rakovník and a players belonging to SpS and SCM in 2019 were used to perform the analysis. The tested group has 163 players. A complete boxplot was used to analyze the data - maximum, minimum, arithmetic median, mean, standard deviation and 1st - 4th quartile. Results: The results show that the VKR section has a lower level of motor skills. And in the test, jump after a smeart run, throw 1 kg of medicine ball - one-handed, long jump from the place. In the K-test, the VKR section was better than the SCM selection. The results show differences between VKR performance players and top SCM players. From the knowledge gained, we can assume that the players of the VKR section have a lower level of motor skills, which are the basis for volleyball players. Keywords: forms of volleyball, movement skills, selection of talents, test battery.

COMPARING BRIEF MEASURES OF NARCISSISM: INTERNAL CONSISTENCY, VALIDITY, COVERAGE

Melissa Packer West (12469356) 27 April 2022 (has links)
<p>Narcissism is a personality construct linked to dysfunction in several domains. It encompasses grandiose and vulnerable variants as well as antagonism, agentic extraversion, and neuroticism higher-order factors. Many measures that vary in breadth and length have been constructed to measure narcissism. In recent years, super-short forms have become popular in research settings. Although brief measures hold some advantages, their brevity can come at psychometric costs. The comparative limitations of these short narcissism forms have received relatively little empirical examination. The goal of the current project was to fill this gap by determining the potential costs and benefits of using short measures of narcissism rather than longer measures in an online community sample (<em>N</em>= 473). This examination included assessing short form completion time, psychometric properties, structure, and measurement invariance across gender. Generally, the short forms demonstrated adequate internal consistency, variable convergence with each other, and mostly moderate to strong convergence with long forms. Short forms with long form counterparts performed well in terms of accounting for the variance of their long form counterparts. The short form items used for the bass-ackward analysis successfully replicated the factor structure of narcissism found by Crowe et al. (2019) using longer narcissism measures at both the two- and three-factor level, which showed measurement invariance across gender, generally at the scalar invariance level. Taken together, these findings suggest that it is still likely most advantageous to use the long forms whenever possible but that some short forms could be used when efficiency of survey administration is particularly important without significant psychometric cost.</p>

The principle of complimentarity through the Roma Satute: a critical analysis of its content, implementation and application. Case study of the DRC

Kahimba, Kambale Dérick 16 February 2022 (has links)
The analysis of the principle of the complementarity formula set out in the Rome Statute is at the heart of this dissertation. The research aims to critically reflect on the complementarity regime under the Rome Statute in relation to international crimes committed in the DRC since the incorporation of the Rome Statute into the Congolese legal system. This research argues that the implementation of the principle of complementarity poses difficulties of application, implementation, and interpretation and thus remains a less effective means of putting an end to international crimes. The findings of this research indicate an urgent need for the principle of complementarity being rethought by clarifying its content and scope. Victims of international crimes cannot to date rely on its implementation to obtain justice. This research adopts an essentially conceptual approach; moreover, the methodological approach adopted is that of qualitative research. This research calls for the principle of complementarity being rethought by clarifying its content and scope.

Tre exempel på mentala tallinjer

Rickdorff Lahrin, Nils January 2018 (has links)
Starting from the Swedish curriculum’s goals of a school for all children this study’smain purpose is to contribute to the understanding of how mental number-lines arebeing described and related to by people with visualized number-forms. The study aimsto answer the two questions:- How are the mental number-lines described by people with visualized numberformsand in what way do these descriptions differ from a conventional numberline?- What relations can be found between the visualized number-line and the choiceof counting-strategies on number-tasks?The study used a qualitative method in which three participants with visual mentalnumber-lines described their preferred counting-strategies and relation to their mentalnumber-lines in three semi-structured interviews. The data was then analyzed byconnecting counting-strategies to the described mental number-lines and by comparingthe described mental number-lines to conventional, linear, number-lines. Two of theparticipants in the study displayed a distinct connection between counting-strategies andnumber-line-visualization. This was shown by the way they adapted their countingstrategiesto fit their personal visualization of the mental number-line. The resulthighlights the importance of understanding how students visualize their number-lines.For further studies this study suggests further investigations regarding how mentalnumber-line-visualizations hinders students from achieving important steps in theirunderstanding of mathematics.

The tyranny of timespace: examining the timetable of schooling activities as the interface between policy and everyday rhythms

Muller, Sara 28 September 2020 (has links)
This thesis seeks to understand the role of school timetables as an interface between policies that regulate or distribute forms of capital to schools, and their teaching and learning rhythms. By doing so, it proposes a mechanism for examining the reproduction of schooling practices, and how these are grounded in policy-regulated materiality. Two high schools with similar historic backgrounds, and operating under the same provincial government, were selected and closely studied for evidence of rhythms of practice and the correspondence of these rhythms to each school's timetable. The two schools now experience different access to resources, and have significant differences in teaching and learning rhythms, as well as school-leaving summative assessment results. The study develops an analytic framework for identifying policies that reach into schools through the timetable. Five key inputs are identified as necessary for constructing timetables, providing productive lines of inquiry as to which policies affect schooling rhythms and how. By asking who teaches whom, what, with what and where, systematic analysis is conducted on: how schools are staffed (who); who they enrol (whom); their interpretation of curriculum (what); what supplementary resources they can command (with what); and their infrastructural facilities and geographic (dis)advantages (where). The interaction between these different threads is examined as they tangle within each school's timetable. The enactment of the policies regulating each thread is then traced through the layers of governance of the South African education system: national, provincial and local (school-level). Timetables are conceptualised in this study as local representations of intended teaching and learning rhythm. Using Lefebvre's triad of timespace-conceived, timespace-perceived and timespace-lived, timetables (timespace-conceived) are brought into conversation with timespace-lived through daily teaching and learning activities. Bourdieu's theory of practice is used with Lefebvre to animate the ‘game' of schooling: what schools strive for, what forms of capital they can command to sustain or improve their field position, and how they reproduce their practices. Bourdieu and Lefebvre together generate a sociomaterial practice theory lens that foregrounds timetables and their legitimacy to govern rhythms of teaching and learning in timespace. Timetables emerge as a site of the production and reproduction of advantage (fortified schools) and/or disadvantage (exposed schools) in the game of schooling. In timetables, the policies that avail forms of capital interact in previously unconsidered ways, suggesting that collectively they potentially undergird inequality in the education system.

Understanding Netflix’s establishment in Sweden : A study on how Swedish trade press and cultural journalism build up Netflix as powerful with regards to economic and cultural aspects

Holmqvist Emanuelsson, Gustaf January 2020 (has links)
This thesis expands an understanding of how Netflix has been established in Sweden’s media landscape. It seeks to investigate what effect the press has had, and more specifically, the study explores how the press builds up Netflix as powerful and how it imbues Netflix with legitimacy. Methodologically the thesis starts off with a usage of purposive sampling in order to find articles. The material is further handled with a critical discourse analysis, where writers’ language is explored, along with an investigation into how the world is represented with regards to identities, relationships and sociocultural aspects. Analysed articles with an economic focus come from Dagens Industri and those with cultural focus comes from Aftonbladet, Expressen, Dagens Nyheter and Svenska Dagbladet. Moreover, the study is based on theories and earlier studies within political economy, with a pursuit to understand film and television industry; trade press, to interpret the economic articles; cultural journalism, to interpret the cultural articles from; and power, to distinguished different power aspects in Netflix. The analysis comes in two parts: the economic analysis, which is divided in three ways and a two-folded cultural analysis. When it comes to economic legitimacy, two major aspects are prominent: Netflix’s success in competition against other streaming services and a clear establishment on the global market. Some articles have also given reasons to understand Netflix’s situation as ambiguous, meaning its future is uncertain. With regards to cultural legitimacy, the question of quality is significant, along with a connection to other social contexts such as gender, politics and climate. Netflix is perceived as having a societal responsibility. As a result of this thesis, it can be noted that cultural articles tend to be more critical than economic. Cultural journalists appear to cover the subject with a more open approach, using personal opinions, often suggesting what Netflix can improve. Writers of economic articles demonstrate a stricter portrayal of Netflix, mainly focusing on developments and success.
