Ekonomická analýza cash flow nízkoenergetických staveb RD / Cash Flow Analysis of Low-Energy HousesKönig, Michal January 2014 (has links)
The subject of my master´s thesis is analysis of the operating costs in households in various energy categories of houses. The theoretical part is focused on passive homes issue where I explained principles and differences of standard constructions. The practical part is based on a concrete example of the differences and the structure of costs. The aim is to confirm or refute the hypothesis, which say that higher investment costs for the construction of low energy buildings could reduce costs and family budgets in the future. They also lead to higher liquidity.

Vliv atrapy na chování samců strnada obecného a budníčka menšího v playbackových experimentech / Effect of a dummy on behaviour of Yellowhammer and Chiffchaff males in playback experimentsKubátová, Hana January 2021 (has links)
A playback experiment in which a recording of vocalization is played to the tested subject and its response is observed, is a widely used tool for examining bird song and its functions. Most often only acoustic stimulus is used, but sometimes a visual stimulus is also provided in the form of a dummy. Taxidermic mounts or models made from different materials are used as the dummy. It is discussed among researchers, whether it is or is not necessary to use a dummy in experiments and how does its presence affect behavior of the tested individuals. However, only few studies directly focus on this issue and test the effect of dummies. The best way to test the effects of a dummy on passerines in playback experiments is to test the same individuals in both situations (with a dummy and without a dummy) and compare the reactions. The aim of this theses was to perform such experiments on Chiffchaff (Phylloscopus collybita) and Yellowhammer (Emberiza citrinella) males and to find out whether they would behave similarly in both variants of the experiment, or if their reaction would be enhanced in the presence of a dummy. Chiffchaffs reacted significantly more aggressively in the dummy experiment. The biggest difference was time spent by attacking the dummy and staying close to it. In Yellowhammers, the dummy...

L’improvisation spatiale générée à partir de motifs polyrythmiques et de séquences de paramètres en boucle via l’outil de performance Live 4 LifeLengelé, Christophe 08 1900 (has links)
Ce projet de recherche-création est axé sur le développement d’un outil de création sonore, qui vise à faciliter l’improvisation de musiques électroacoustiques spatialisées sur de multiples haut-parleurs. L’outil nommé Live 4 Life permet plus spécifiquement de composer des polyrythmies spatialisées, combinées à des textures enveloppantes en temps réel.
Actuellement, il est particulièrement difficile de contrôler dynamiquement et simultanément de multiples sons dans l’espace, en raison en partie de la stratification du processus de composition dans plusieurs logiciels et de la complexité à spatialiser individuellement chaque événement sonore. En dotant l’improvisateur d’outils de spatialisation flexibles, celui-ci peut exploiter les dimensions spatiales tout au long du processus de création, de la composition jusqu’à la performance. L’intégration, à même l’outil Live 4 Life, des autres paramètres sonores, comme le rythme ou les vitesses de lecture, permet également de créer de nouveaux liens dans la composition de l’espace.
L’outil, implémenté sur la plate-forme en source libre SuperCollider, propose une approche comprenant différentes échelles temporelles, où la spatialisation est déterminée autant au niveau local sur des événements individuels que global sur des flux sonores. Des œuvres ouvertes du point de vue spatial et temporel peuvent ainsi être réalisées à partir de multiples séquences pré-composées, qui sont organisées et modifiées en temps réel. Cet outil de performance spatiale met l’accent sur la construction et la déformation de boucles de paramètres, rythmiques ou spatiales. Il permet, en outre, de questionner le développement spatio-temporel entre les objets sonores eux-mêmes, leurs traitements ou leurs réflexions et ouvre sur des questions plus larges sur les liens qui existent entre l’espace et le temps réel. / The research/creation project is focused on the development of a spatialised sound creation tool, which aims at facilitating the improvisation of electroacoustic music on multiple loudspeakers. More specifically, this tool, which is called Live 4 Life, allows to compose spatialised polyrhythms, combined with enveloping textures in real time.
Currently, it is particularly difficult to dynamically and simultaneously control multiple sounds in space, due in part to the layering of the composition process in multiple software programs and the complexity of individually spatialising each sound event. By providing the improviser with flexible spatialisation tools, it allows him to exploit spatial dimensions throughout the creative process, from composition to performance. The integration of other sound parameters, such as rhythm, spectrum or playback speeds, in a global creation tool also allows to create new links in the composition of space.
The tool, implemented on the open source platform SuperCollider, offers an approach comprising different time scales, where spatialisation is determined both locally on individual events and globally on sound streams. Spatially and temporally open forms can thus be realised from multiple pre-composed sequences, which are organised and modified in real time. This spatial performance tool emphasises the construction and deformation of parameter loops, rhythmic or spatial. It also makes it possible to question the spatio-temporal development between sound objects themselves, their processing or their reflections, and opens up broader questions on the links that exist between space and real time.

Interactionz: Engaging Lgbtq+ Youth Using Theatre For Social ChangeJackson, Jonathan 01 January 2013 (has links)
Theatre for social change is a term used to describe a wide range of theatre-based techniques and methods. Through implementation of performance techniques, participants are encouraged to creatively explore and communicate various ideas with the specific intention of eliciting a societal or political shift within a given community. Through this thesis, I will explore the impact of applying theatre for social change in a youth-centered environment. I will discuss my journey as creator, facilitator, and project director of interACTionZ, a queer youth theatre program in Orlando, FL formed through a partnership between Theatre UCF at the University of Central Florida and the Zebra Coalition®. I will give specific focus throughout this project to Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer (LGBTQ+) youth and straight advocates for the LGBTQ+ community.

Evaluating Improvisation As A Technique For Training Pre-service Teachers For Inclusive ClassroomsBecker, Theresa 01 January 2012 (has links)
Improvisation is a construct that uses a set of minimal heuristic guidelines to create a highly flexible scaffold that fosters extemporaneous communication. Scholars from diverse domains: such as psychology, business, negotiation, and education have suggested its use as a method for preparing professionals to manage complexity and think on their feet. A review of the literature revealed that while there is substantial theoretical scholarship on using improvisation in diverse domains, little research has verified these assertions. This dissertation evaluated whether improvisation, a specific type of dramatic technique, was effective for training pre-service teachers in specific characteristics of teacher-child classroom interaction, communication and affective skills development. It measured the strength and direction of any potential changes such training might effect on pre-service teacher’s self-efficacy for teaching and for implementing the communication skills common to improvisation and teaching while interacting with student in an inclusive classroom setting. A review of the literature on teacher self-efficacy and improvisation clarified and defined key terms, and illustrated relevant studies. This study utilized a mixed-method research design based on instructional design and development research. Matched pairs ttests were used to analyze the self-efficacy and training skills survey data and pre-service teacher reflections and interview transcripts were used to triangulate the qualitative data. Results of the t-tests showed a significant difference in participants’ self-efficacy for teaching measured before and after the improvisation training. A significant difference in means was also measured in participants’ aptitude for improvisation strategies and for self-efficacy for their implementation pre-/post- training. Qualitative results from pre-service teacher class iv artifacts and interviews showed participants reported beneficial personal outcomes as well as confirmed using skills from the training while interacting with students. Many of the qualitative themes parallel individual question items on the teacher self-efficacy TSES scale as well as the improvisation self-efficacy scale CSAI. The self-reported changes in affective behavior such as increased self-confidence and ability to foster positive interaction with students are illustrative of changes in teacher agency. Self-reports of being able to better understand student perspectives demonstrate a change in participant ability to empathize with students. Participants who worked with both typically developing students as well as with students with disabilities reported utilizing improvisation strategies such as Yes, and…, mirroring emotions and body language, vocal prosody and establishing a narrative relationship to put the students at ease, establish a positive learning environment, encourage student contributions and foster teachable moments. The improvisation strategies showed specific benefit for participants working with nonverbal students or who had commutation difficulties, by providing the pre-service teachers with strategies for using body language, emotional mirroring, vocal prosody and acceptance to foster interaction and communication with the student. Results from this investigation appear to substantiate the benefit of using improvisation training as part of a pre-service teacher methods course for preparing teachers for inclusive elementary classrooms. Replication of the study is encouraged with teachers of differing populations to confirm and extend results.
