The master thesis named {\clqq}Differences in the relationships between nurse mentors and Bachelor´s and Master´s degree students`` is divided into the theoretical and practical part. In the practical part it was discovered with the aid of the qualitative research, that the nurse mentors does not see differences in the relationships between Bachelor´s and Master´s degree students. The hypothesis stating that the students of Master´s degree programmes enjoy better relationships with mentors than the students of Bachelor´s degree programmes has been disconfirmed. The interviews with the mentors showed that one of the factors affecting the relationships of the nurse mentors to the Master´s and Bachelor´s degree students is the lack of time they have for the students. The results of the questionnaires confirmed the hypothesis stating that the most frequent factor which affects the relationships of students to the mentor is the mentor{\crq}s attention given to them.

Microscopic fungi (micromycetes) is a topic that is at lower secondary schools neglected and mentioned only marginally. Fungi are of great importance for humans in their everyday life, whether negative or positive. It is the reason to rethink how and when to inform pupils about them. The aim of my thesis is to create my own practical exercises that acquaint the pupils of lower secondary schools with the appearance, properties, occurrence, uses, cultivation methods, and last, but not least with the safety of micromycets. In the practical exercises are used basic methods of work with micromycets such as inoculation of the population from the natural environment to a sterile culture medium, the sedimentation method or the method of spreading a dilute suspension of the stick on the agar medium. The revaccination is used to eliminate secondary structures. Then we deal with the possibility of preparing culture media. Isolated cultures of microscopic fungi are identified by macroscopic characters. Due to the safety with micromycets, I recommend to teach microscopic characteristics in high school. The presented practical exercises were verified at the lower secondary school in Vinařice by pupils of the 6th class. The practical exercises proved to be suitable for pupils in lower secondary school. Securing...

Or maybe education is not the main determinant, though primarily affiliated, but the nature of personality, diligence and hard work are determinants, which are the quintessence of the employer's requirements. Sometimes such values in the family of people with mental disabilities are more problematic to implement, then the values would lead the school.

However care for people with mental disability is complete, isn`t complete fully. There is not Transit program here, which is cooperation with Supported employment functioning in region. the largest work can be motivation of pupils...

At the beginning of the 21st century has the nurssing care been undergoing and constantly is undergoing some significant changes. These changes are related to the admission of the Czech Republic into the European Union, where healthcare is transformed and demands for professional training of nurses are increasing. Because of the indispensable position of general nurses in the health care system, it is essential that to create conditions for education to meet all the training requirements. Understanding students' stance in this area can help to plan practical lessons and can also reveal both the strengths and weaknesses of practical training in selected departments. The aim of the diploma thesis was to find out how students of the general nurse field perceive professional practical training in selected departments and which categories they most often mention in their essays. Following the set of objectives, the hypothesis and three research questions were established. For the empirical part of the diploma thesis was used the research method of content analysis of data in which a quantitative and qualitative approach was applied. In terms of quantitative data analysis, the technique of frequency analysis was chosen and, in order to achieve a deeper meaning of the content structure of the text, a qualitative content analysis of the data was used where the valency analysis technique was used. The results of the research show that the practical training significantly influences the nursing staff, the possibility to learn professional skills, the contribution of practical practical training, mentor nurse, patients / clients, communication at the workplace, the possibility of working with documentation and attendance at the visit and the number of students Practice. Other factors that affect student practical training are apprehensions and fear, stress and psychological difficulty of general nurse work, adherence to the principles of barrier nursing care, supervision, and burnout. The diploma thesis can help to improve the quality and planning of practical education in the bachelor study field general nurse and as a valuable feedback for the students. It can also be used as a basis for the elaboration of a specialized article and for further research.

The author focused her thesis on the transition from school to work in people with mental disabilities. The Current Status section provides the basic terminology definition of mental disability. The Quantitative Evaluation section captures the division and characteristics of individual degrees of mental disability. These are followed by a description of individual signs and causes of mental disability. To achieve a theoretical balance of the thesis, abilities of people with mental disabilities are assessed also in terms of a qualitative personality structure. The thesis describes specific characteristics of mental functions: perception, memory, thinking, attention, emotivity, and volitive traits. The thesis mentions documents affecting the rights of people with mental disabilities and it emphasises the right to education and employment. Opportunities for upbringing and education of persons with mental disabilities are monitored by their age and within the Czech educational system. Job opportunities for young people with mental disabilities are governed by the Employment Act and specific social programs also have their impacts; they are, for example, supported employment and transition programme, which provide support to people with mental disabilities in fulfilling their right to employment and integration into the mainstream society. The objective of the thesis is to describe the method of the transition programme and the definition of the supporting factors affecting the degree of inclusion in the occupational environment. To answer the set research questions, the author chose a qualitative research. The qualitative research is conducted through a case study. The author chose the following methods of data collection: participant observation, document analysis, and problem-focused interview, using instructions, with the parents of young mentally disabled people who have used or still use the transition programme service. The course of the programme and the fulfilment of the set objectives are influenced by the user?s personality, his or her natural social environment, schools and teachers, employers and workplace environment, and the consultant?s personality and the quality of their work with the user. The author perceives the transition programme as a specific programme, defined by legislation, of social rehabilitation service, which has its established place in an open civil society.
