This study described the Department of Agriculture at Alcorn State University (ASU) as perceived by the agricultural baccalaureate degree graduates. Additionally, the study established a biographic and demographic data bank of these graduates for future reference and use by the Department. A descriptive research design was used for the study. The total population for the study was the 160 graduates from all agricultural program areas at ASU from 1982-1986. Data was collected by a questionnaire developed by the researcher with assistance from two review panels. Mailed instruments were returned by 102 graduates representing a 64% response rate. Data were summarized by frequency distributions, percentages, measures of central tendency and measures of variability as appropriate for each variable item. Statistical analyses were performed using the Statistical Analysis System computer package at ASU. The following major conclusions were reached: (1) the graduates perceived the faculty as being effective in the Department of Agriculture at ASU, (2) graduates perceived that certain curricula in the Department were less than adequate, especially that the number of semester hours in communication skills and agricultural engineering courses needed increasing, (3) the graduates perceived the facilities in the department as insufficient and that additional intern training centers are needed, {4) graduates reported little participation in professional and civic activities, (5) graduates were willing to participate in recruitment for the department, and (6) most graduates were currently employed. Major recommendations made were: (1) strategies be developed to improve communications with agricultural agencies and industries, (2) the Department of Agriculture closely review the current curriculum to determine how communication, agricultural engineering and computer skills could better be integrated into the undergraduate curriculum, (3) agricultural graduates be contacted to assist in locating appropriate off-campus training centers for student internships, and (4) each program area of the Department needs to further analyze the data collected from the graduates to assist in making programmatic improvement. / Ed.

Au moment où les recherches convergent pour affirmer la baisse du niveau de maîtrise orthographique chez les collégiens, nous souhaitons savoir si le phénomène touche également les bacheliers qui poursuivent leurs études dans le supérieur. Ancrée à la fois en sciences de l'éducation et en sciences de l'information et de la communication, cette recherche-action propose un triptyque scientifique articulé sur une méthodologie plurielle. L'objectif est non seulement de répondre à la question centrale mais aussi d'en mesurer les conséquences sur l'insertion professionnelle et d'esquisser une solution pédagogique. Premièrement, une mesure diachronique présente la forte augmentation du taux d'erreurs orthographiques dans les copies d'examen de première année universitaire. Deuxièmement, une expérimentation in situ atteste de la discrimination à l'embauche dont peuvent être victimes les candidats à l'orthographe lacunaire. Troisièmement, elle propose une remédiation grammaticale à destination d'étudiants de première année basée sur un instrument d'apprentissage et d'évaluation novateur : la dictée normalisée. / At a time when various studies have confirmed that the spelling ability of secondary school students has fallen, our aim has been to discover whether this phenomenon also affects university students who pursue their studies to a higher level. With its fundamental notions set in both educational, as well as information and communication science, this research-action proposes a three-pronged scientific approach based on plural methodologies. The aim is not only to answer the central question, but also to measure its consequences in terms of employability, and to define the outlines of an educational response. Firstly, diachronic measurements reveal a strong increase in the spelling error rate in marked examination papers during the first year at university. Secondly, in situ experimentation confirms that candidates with faulty spelling can be the victims of discrimination in employment. Thirdly, grammatical remediation is proposed for first-year university students, based on an innovative learning and evaluation instrument: the normalised dictation.

Objectfied to inquire the repercussion of the Resolution CNE / CSE 07/2004, when a full professional qualification of physical education for different areas of operation, it breaks up on the Bachelor and Graduation modalities, viewing two distinct identities. Was defined as the research problem understand under what historical and cultural conditions, occurred this fractionation licensed for school spaces and a bachelor for multiple performance spaces and their impact on professional practice. Guiding question was set up this process "modification" points to the construction and recognition of culturally differentiated identities of professionals? This is a critical and qualitative nature of research documentary based on analysis of the dialectical approach to understanding the research object inserted in a historical totality, that is, in the capitalist neoliberal globalization. The theoretical contributions were sought in Bourdieu (1983), Castellani (1988), Soares (1994), Ventura (2010) and Hall (2015). The empirical corpus was composed of national guiding documents (CNE and MEC), in the Brazilian Congress of Science of Sports (CONBRACE) in the years 2013 and 2015, as also in the scientific production in the field of Physical Education in Brazil between 2004 and 2014: Revista Brasileira de Ciências do Esporte – CBCE, Revista Movimento – UFRGS, Revista Pensar a Prática – UFG (descriptors: professional qualification in Physical Education, Graduation and Bachelor degree in physical education and political and professional impact of Resolution CNE / CSE 07/2004). Was Found 08, 07 and 07 articles respectively. Also provided analysis of this research the production of GTTs Epistemology and Professional Qaulification and the World of Work of the Brazilian Congress of Science of Sports. The conclusions indicate that the new legal guidelines for Physical Education, resulted from neoliberal economic policy in aplly. The Resolution CNE / CES 07/2004 fractionated the field in school and not school, limiting pedagogical qualification. The CONFEF considers school field as "free" inspection. There is no consensus on the dual qualification. The CONFEF supported by legal guidelines, advocating fractionation. The CBCE question the fractional model. This disagreement was not reflected in the academic and scientific means, considering the small number of works presented in the sources indicated by the empirical corpus As for the bachelor and licensed identities, one can consider that the E.F. professional, loads resulting determinations of the new legal guidelines, a new political game in the field of the E.F., a constitutive characterization of the postmodern subject (HALL, 2015), holder identities in construction, mobile and distinct. / Esta investigação sob o título “FORMAÇÃO EM EDUCAÇÃO FÍSICA NO BRASIL: NOVAS ORIENTAÇÕES LEGAIS, OUTRAS IDENTIDADES PROFISSIONAIS?”, está inserida na Linha de Pesquisa Educação, Sociedade e Cultura. Objetivou indagar os reflexos decorrentes das modificações trazidas pela Resolução CNE/CSE 07/2004, quando de uma formação integral do profissional de Educação Física para diferentes espaços de atuação, fracionando-se nas modalidades bacharel e licenciado, perspectivando duas identidades distintas. Definiu-se como problema de pesquisa, compreender sob quais condições históricoculturais, ocorreu este fracionamento do licenciado para os espaços escolares e o bacharel para múltiplos espaços de atuação, bem como seus impactos no exercício profissional. Como questão orientadora foi definido se este processo “de modificação” aponta para a construção e reconhecimento de identidades culturalmente diferenciadas dos profissionais? Trata-se de uma pesquisa de natureza críticoqualitativo de base documental sob análise da abordagem dialética para compreender o objeto de investigação inserido em uma totalidade histórica, ou seja, na globalização neoliberal capitalista. Os aportes teóricos foram buscados em Bourdieu (1983), Castellani (1988), Soares (1994), Ventura (2010) e Hall (2015). O corpus empírico foi constituído por documentos orientadores nacionais (CNE e MEC), o Congresso Brasileiro de Ciências do Esporte (CONBRACE) nos anos de 2013 e 2015, como também a produção científica no campo da Educação Física no Brasil no período entre 2004 e 2014: Revista Brasileira de Ciências do Esporte – CBCE, Revista Movimento – UFRGS, Revista Pensar a Prática – UFG (descritores: formação profissional em Educação Física, licenciatura e bacharelado em Educação Física e impactos políticosprofissionais da Resolução CNE/CSE 07/2004). Foram encontrados 08, 07 e 07 artigos respectivamente. Também constituiu análise dessa pesquisa a produção dos GTTs Epistemologia e Formação Profissional e Mundo do Trabalho do Congresso Brasileiro de Ciências do Esporte. As conclusões apontam que as novas orientações legais para a Educação Física, resultaram da política econômica neoliberal em vigor. A Resolução CNE/CSE 07/2004 fracionou o campo em escolar e não escolar, limitando a formação pedagógica. O CONFEF, trata o campo escolar como “livre” de fiscalização. Não há consenso quanto à dupla formação. O CONFEF amparado pelas orientações legais, defende o fracionamento. O CBCE questiona o modelo fracionado. Este dissenso não se refletiu nos meios acadêmico e científico, considerando-se o reduzido número de trabalhos apresentados nas fontes indicadas pelo corpus empírico. Quanto às identidades bacharel e licenciado, pode-se considerar que o profissional de E.F., carrega determinações resultantes das novas orientações legais, um novo jogo político no campo da E.F., uma caracterização constitutiva do sujeito pós-moderno (HALL, 2015), detentor de identidades em construção, móveis e distintas.

estágio, na literatura da área da educação musical, é entendido como atividade privilegiada para mobilizar e articular saberes, desenvolver os saberes da experiência, integrar teoria e prática, se aproximar das realidades escolares ou dos diferentes espaços educativos para melhor compreendê-los e neles agir. O estágio possibilita que professores em formação incorporem competências e gestos profissionais em direção ao desenvolvimento de uma profissionalidade. Com base nessa perspectiva, esta dissertação teve como objetivo geral investigar indícios da emergência da profissionalidade de estagiários de um curso de licenciatura em música. Como objetivos específicos, buscou identificar, nas concepções e ações desses estagiários, indícios de reconhecimento da função de ensinar; indícios de reconhecimento de um saber específico da profissão; indícios de tomadas de decisão e de autonomia no exercício da função de ensinar; e indícios de um sentido de pertencimento a um corpo coletivo que exerce a profissão. O referencial teórico do estudo é constituído pelo conceito de profissionalidade emergente, de Anne Jorro, e pelos descritores de profissionalidade apresentados por Maria do Céu Roldão. A pesquisa, de abordagem qualitativa, se caracterizou como um estudo de caso, cujos dados foram coletados por meio de observações, entrevistas semiestruturadas e análise de documentos. Os resultados deste trabalho indicam que o estágio pode envolver, para além dos saberes docentes, outros aspectos que caracterizam a profissão professor de música. Ao buscar aprofundar a compreensão do processo de emergência da profissionalidade que acontece no estágio, esta pesquisa caracteriza, ao menos parcialmente, a aproximação do licenciando em música com a profissão para a qual está se formando. A pesquisa indica, ainda, algumas condições que podem ser propiciadas aos licenciandos em período de estágio que podem contribuir para fazer emergir a profissionalidade. / According to music education literature, teaching practice, as a component of teacher training, is a privileged activity to mobilize and articulate different types of knowledge, to develop experiential knowledge, to integrate theory and practice and to approach educational realities in order to better understand them and acting on them. Teaching practice allows student teachers to incorporate professional skills and gestures towards the development of a professionality. Based on this perspective, this dissertation aimed at to investigate signs of the emergence of the professionality of student teachers enrolled in a bachelor degree program in music education. More specifically, it aimed at to identify, in the conceptions and actions of these student teachers, signs of recognition of the teaching function; signs of recognition of a specific knowledge of the profession; signs of decision-making and autonomy in the performance of the teaching function; and signs of a sense of belonging to a collective body that practices a profession. The concept of emergent professionality, by Anne Jorro, and the descriptors of teaching professionality, presented by Maria do Céu Roldão, constituted the study´s theoretical framework. A qualitative case study was carried out, with data being collected through observations, semi-structured interviews and analysis of documents. The results indicate that the teaching practice may involve, besides types of knowledge, other aspects that characterize the music teacher profession. Through seeking to deepen the understanding of the emergency process of the professionality that happens during the teaching practice, this research characterizes, at least partially, how the music student teacher comes close to the profession for which he/she is being trained. The results also indicate some conditions that can be offered to student teachers that can contribute to the emergence of the professionality.

Romance reality programming has become a major player in the television field, with the most successful shows garnering huge ratings and massive audiences over the course of numerous seasons. But while the concept of finding love in a competitive environment on the national stage is new, romance reality TV programs seem to regenerate outdated stereotypes which work in a retrograde fashion to envisage love in traditional, pre-feminist heteronormative and patriarchal structures. Combining a background of literature on reality TV which gives insight to the manipulative tendencies of the industry; feminist scholarship on the acculturating and indoctrinating nature of classic fairy tales; and writings on the prevalence of postfeminist ideology that emphasizes self-surveillance/subjectification, the rhetoric of self-empowerment, and natural differences between the sexes, this thesis examines one of the most ubiquitous romance reality shows, The bachelor. Through the lens of nine tropes--beauty, passivity, marriage, victimization, vilification, romance rhetoric, gender roles, consumerism, and the male gaze--I analyze a full season of episodes, tallying the occurrences in each category. Using these tally numbers as general indicators and providing examples of each theme, I argue that the lessons conveyed to audiences by The bachelor and other romance reality programs bear a striking resemblance to classic fairy tales morals in which positive outcomes for heroines directly correlate to their perceived femininity, including conventionally feminine virtues like physical beauty, moral turpitude, and adherence to normative gender roles. The presence of postfeminism in the media contributes to making these outdated fairy tales themes seem congruent with female agency and empowerment by uncritically casting the failure to find love as a personal one. At the same time, men are placed in advantageous positions of authority and power, affirming the inevitability and desirability of patriarchal relationship arrangements. / text

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2015 / A educação superior em Enfermagem vem sendo alvo de inúmeras reformulações, que são reflexos do contexto histórico e político de nossa sociedade. Com vistas a assegurar que a expansão de cursos nesta área tenha critérios de qualidade, torna-se premente a avaliação do processo de formação. Diante disso, objetivou-se conhecer a literatura científica acerca da qualidade da educação superior em Enfermagem e da percepção de egressos acerca desta qualidade; compreender os parâmetros de qualidade que embasaram a elaboração dos Projetos Político- Pedagógicos (PPP) de cursos de graduação em Enfermagem; analisar a percepção dos egressos destes cursos sobre a qualidade do ensino ofertado. Métodos: pesquisa bibliográfica; pesquisa documental: análise dos PPP dos cursos de graduação em Enfermagem do município de São Paulo que disponibilizam o documento para consulta pública nos sites de suas respectivas instituições de ensino superior (IES); pesquisa empírica: 60 egressos dos diversos cursos de graduação em Enfermagem responderam ao instrumento do tipo Likert, contendo 41 assertivas, organizadas em cinco dimensões: 1. competências técnico-científicas; 2.competências atitudinais; 3. práticas docentes; 4. organização didático-pedagógica/infraestrutura da IES e 5. cenários de prática) e 3 questões abertas. Resultados: a pesquisa bibliográfica permitiu conhecer os principais parâmetros de qualidade que subsidiaram a análise dos PPP, revelando que a maior parte das competências preconizadas nas DCN de Enfermagem esteve presente nos documentos analisados. O índice de confiabilidade do instrumento Likert foi de 0,94, garantindo excelente sustentação estatística para os dados encontrados. As dimensões 1, 2 e 3 situaram-se na zona de conforto, não necessitando de ações de intervenção imediata por não prejudicarem o processo de formação. As dimensões 4 e 5 situaram-se na zona de alerta, o que requer intervenções para melhorias. Os egressos realizam uma avaliação satisfatória dos cursos, porém sinalizam aspectos a serem aprimorados, que dizem respeito ao desenvolvimento das competências gerenciais e da liderança; ao reconhecimento dos perfis epidemiológicos das populações; ao trabalho multiprofissional; à infraestrutura das IES; à postura dos docentes, com marcas do modelo tradicional de detenção do conhecimento e com adoção da avaliação somativa; à escassa participação dos discentes na elaboração dos PPP; à articulação ensino/serviço. Os aspectos positivos foram: desenvolvimento das competências para atuar na promoção, prevenção, assistência, recuperação e reabilitação da saúde, avaliação, sistematização e decisão da conduta mais adequada na assistência à saúde; compromisso com os princípios do Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) e compreensão da saúde em todas as dimensões humanas; equilíbrio entre os aspectos técnico-científicos e humanistas; incentivo à educação permanente, à postura crítico-reflexiva, ao senso de cidadania, à responsabilidade social e à capacidade de mudança da realidade; corpo docente qualificado tecnicamente e com bom relacionamento interpessoal; articulação entre saber, saber fazer e saber conviver; compreensão dos níveis primário, secundário e terciário da assistência. A adequação dos cursos de Enfermagem para atender às necessidades do SUS demanda ações constantes. Nesta pesquisa evidenciam-se aspectos relevantes que sinalizam movimentos de mudança, mas apontam-se aspectos que precisam ser aprimorados, requerendo a participação de todos os atores envolvidos. / The higher education in Nursing has been the target of numerous reformulations, which are a reflection of the historical and political context of our society. Seeking to ensure that the expansion of courses in this area be accompanied by the quality, it’s urgent to review this academic learning process. Given this, was aimed to know the scientific literature about the quality of higher education in Nursing and the perception of graduates about quality; comprehend the quality parameters that supported the development of Political-Pedagogical Projects (PPP) of the graduation courses in Nursing; know the perception of the graduates of these courses about the quality of offered education. Methods: A literature review; documentary research: analysis of the PPP of graduation courses in Nursing in São Paulo city, that provide the document for public consultation on the websites of their higher education institutions (HEIs); empirical research: 60 egresses of various graduation courses in Nursing that responded to a Likert-type instrument, containing 41 assertions, organized in 5 dimensions (1. technical and scientific skills; 2. attitudinal skills 3. teaching practices; 4. didactic-pedagogical organization/infrastructure of the HEIs; 5. practice scenarios) and 3 open questions. The literature research allowed knowing the main parameters of quality, which, in turn, subsidized the analysis of the PPP, revealing that most of the skill provided by National Curriculum Guidelines of the Nursing Graduation Courses was present in the analyzed documents. The confiability index of the Likert instrument was 0.94, ensuring excellent statistical support for the found dates, The dimensions 1, 2 and 3 were in the confort zone, not requiring immediate intervention actions, because don't harm the training process. The dimensions 4 and 5 stood in the alert zone, which requires interventions for improvements. The graduates participate in a satisfactory evaluation of the courses, but have signaled aspects to be improved, related to the development of managerial skills and leadership; the recognition of epidemiological profiles of the populations; the multidisciplinary work; the infrastructure of HEIs; the attitude of teachers, with marks of the traditional model of detention of knowledge and with the adoption of the summative evaluation; the exclusion of students in the development of the PPP; the need for linking the teaching/service relation. The positive aspects were: development of the skills to work in promotion, prevention, assistance, recovery and rehabilitation, to assess, systematize e decide the proper conduct in health care; the commitment to the principles of our National Health System (NHS) and the comprehension of health in all human dimensions; the balance between technical-scientific and humanistic aspects; the incentive to the permanent education, critical-reflexive attitude, sense of citizenship, social responsibility and to the capacity to change the reality; technically qualified teaching staff and good interpersonal relationship; articulation between knowledge, know-how and knowing how to live together; comprehension of the primary, secondary and tertiary levels of assistance. The adaptation of the Nursing courses to attend the NHS needs demand constant actions. In this research, were evidenced relevant aspects that demonstrate change movements, but were pointed other aspects that need improvement, requiring the participation of all involved.

This kind of graduation has been widespread in the country since the mid-1990s, after the enactment of the law nº 9.394/96 - LDB, and by a series of decrees, orders and advices of the MEC / CNE. Among the outstanding main goals and objectives of the PNE for higher education, it may highlighted: diversified higher education system to meet the specific demands of clienteles training; linkage between curriculum and the labor market; financing and management; creating policies for access to higher education to facilitate the admission of students from vulnerable educational groups; increasing the of offer for higher education for the aged group 18-24 years. This study aims to reflect and discuss the importance of the CSTs in professional education of Brazilian workers through the expectation of PNE. The study is based on qualitative method, an exploratory and descriptive research, characterized as a single case study, through field research conducted with students and graduates of the course of Industrial Electronics, Faculty of Technology Senai Anchieta, in the city of Sao Paulo. To achieve its objectives, the study was divided into two stages: the first analyzes the variables that characterize the profile of the student in training in order to identify their perceptions regarding the choice by CST, knowledge about this type of education and future expectations of the profession. In the second part, the study analyzes the perception of graduate about the skills and competencies acquired during training, their degree of satisfaction with salary and career path, and the Technologist professional acceptance by the labor market. In a study conducted with students in training it was found that the dropout rates of the first classes were high, being identified as the main causes difficulties in reconciling study schedule with work and family economic hardship. The profile of the student training in IES under study is mostly the age group between 18 and 24 years; males; egress of secondary education done in public schools; resident in peripheral and natural neighborhood of the city RMSP; the student himself is responsible for payment of tuition; no third party interference in their choice of CST; have favorable perceptions regarding future employability as technologist. A survey of graduates showed that they have a favorable perception of the training received, except the fact that they had not attended courses that develop managerial skills and business; regarding the employability and career prospects were concerned in professional development technologist by the labor market; reported being dissatisfied about salary received; regarding continuing education be recognized that the process that will keep updated professionally. As a conclusion of this study, it is recommended to probing other possible causes of truancy, through a research with students from other courses with different thematic axes and public IES. It is pointed-out also the need to offer in the curriculum proposal of the IES under study, apart from technical disciplines, others in order to develop skills in people management and business management. / Os Cursos Superiores de Tecnologia são um tipo específico de graduação (tecnólogo), com características próprias, entre as quais, a focalização na especialização dos seus currículos e duração mais curta objetivando uma formação mais rápida. A graduação tecnológica vem sendo amplamente difundida no país desde a segunda metade da década de 1990, após a promulgação da lei no 9.394/96 LDB, e por uma série de decretos, portarias e pareceres do MEC/CNE. Entre as principais metas e objetivos do PNE para a educação superior, se destacam: diversificação do sistema superior de ensino para atender clientelas com demandas específicas de formação; articulação entre currículo e mercado de trabalho; financiamento e gestão; criação de políticas de acesso à educação superior que facilitem o ingresso de alunos provenientes de grupos de maior vulnerabilidade educacional; crescimento da oferta de educação superior para a faixa etária de 18 a 24 anos. O presente estudo tem por objetivo refletir e debater a contribuição dos CSTs na educação profissional do trabalhador brasileiro dentro das perspectivas do PNE. O estudo se fundamenta no método qualitativo, com base numa pesquisa exploratória e descritiva, caracterizada como estudo de caso único, através da pesquisa de campo realizada com alunos em formação e com egressos do Curso de Eletrônica Industrial da Faculdade de Tecnologia Senai Anchieta, na cidade de São Paulo. Para alcançar seus objetivos, o estudo foi dividido em duas etapas: a primeira faz uma análise das variáveis que caracterizam o perfil do aluno em formação buscando identificar sua percepção quanto à escolha pelo CST, conhecimento sobre essa modalidade de ensino e as expectativas futuras da profissão. Na segunda parte, o estudo faz uma análise da percepção do egresso acerca das habilidades e competências adquiridas durante a formação, o grau de satisfação com salário e plano de carreira, e a aceitação profissional do tecnólogo pelo mercado de trabalho. No estudo realizado com alunos em formação constatou-se que os índices de evasão escolar das primeiras turmas do curso foram elevados, sendo apontadas como principais causas as dificuldades de conciliação entre o horário de estudo com a do trabalho e as dificuldades econômicas familiares. O perfil do aluno em formação na IES em estudo é majoritariamente da faixa etária entre 18 e 24 anos; do gênero masculino; egresso do ensino médio feito em escola pública; morador em bairro periférico e natural de cidade da RMSP; o próprio aluno é responsável pelo pagamento das mensalidades; não houve interferência de terceiros na sua escolha pelo CST; tem percepção favorável quanto à empregabilidade futura como tecnólogo. A pesquisa com egressos apontou que os mesmos tem percepção favorável quanto à formação profissional recebida, exceto o fato de não terem atendido disciplinas que desenvolvessem competências gerenciais e de negócios; quanto à empregabilidade e perspectivas de carreira mostraram preocupação na valorização profissional do tecnólogo pelo mercado de trabalho; declararam estar insatisfeitos quanto ao salário recebido; quanto à educação continuada reconheceram ser esse o processo que os manterão atualizados profissionalmente. Como conclusão da pesquisa, há recomendação para estudos futuros na sondagem de outras possíveis causas da evasão escolar com alunos dos cursos com outros eixos temáticos e de IES públicas. Igualmente, aponta-se para a necessidade da proposta curricular da IES em estudo oferecer, além das disciplinas técnicas, outras que desenvolvam competências e habilidade em gestão de pessoas e negócios.

This thesis focuses on student motivation for studies at secondary medical schools, as well as on drivers of motivation of secondary medical school students for Bachelor studies. We wanted to know how motivation of present-day students differs from that of general nurses attending medical schools prior to 2004 and what is the impact of practical training teachers of secondary medical schools on professional motivation of students. Theoretical part describes development of nursing care education since 1945 until now, changes in concept of nursing care as they result from Act no. 96/ 2004 Coll. on ?acquiring and recognition of qualifications for execution of non-doctoral medical professions and activities relating to provision of health care and on amending some related legislation?. Further, we focused on job selection and its factors, and last but not least, on motivation and some motivational drivers. The first objective was to find out what motivates students of secondary medical schools in their first and fourth years. The second objective was to look at motivation of students for General Nurse Bachelor studies. The third objective was to describe motivation of general nurses for studies at secondary medical schools prior to 2004. Finally, the last objective was to find out how practical training teachers of secondary medical schools motivate students for their future profession. In the thesis empirical part, we used methods of qualitative and quantitative research. As far as quantitative research is concerned, anonymous questionnaires were used to collect data. The first population of 102 (100%) respondents included first-year students of three secondary medical schools. The second research population of 100 (100%) respondents included fourth-year students of three secondary medical schools. The third population of 107 (100%) respondents included general nurses of two medium-size hospitals. As far as qualitative research is concerned, questioning method and, in particular, semi-structured interview technique were used. A population of six practical training teachers of two secondary medical schools was involved. These practical training teachers were asked two questions: 1. Is there enough time scheduled for practical training to motivate students? 2. In your opinion, are motivational drivers used in practical training sufficient to get medical assistants involved in the practical training nursing process? Quantitative research has the following results: the first assumption that first-year students were influenced more by external motivational drivers than by internal ones, was not borne out. The second assumption that fourth-year students perceived acquired experience as a more significant motivational driver than external motivation, was not borne out either. The third assumption that motivation of students of secondary medical schools for university studies was depending on experience acquired in practical training was not borne out either. Similarly, the last assumption that motivation of students of secondary medical schools prior to 2004 was depending on the then existing value system, was not borne out either. On the other hand, it is clear from qualitative research that practical training teachers do not have enough time to motivate students and that motivational elements used not always achieve their defined goals. This often results from excessive number of students per group. The above research results will be provided to medical schools for thein self- examination. They may also be used for professional public at specialist seminars or congresses as well as for publication in specialized journals.

The aim of my diploma thesis is to compare the current state of gymnastics education in field Physical education at public sport universities in the Czech Republic. The thesis has an analytical part describing the representation of gymnastics in the study of physical education. The analytical part also contains syllabus data of individual subjects. In the synthetic part is the comparison of the hour rates of gymnastic subjects at the sports universities.
