Full text linkMASTER THESIS TITLE: Didactic principles of John Amos Comenius and their application in today's teaching of German language AUTHOR: Stanislava Černá DEPARTMENT: Department of Germanics SUPERVISOR: PaedDr. Dagmar Švermová This master thesis is focused on the personality of meaningful Czech thinker J. A. Comenius and his didactical principles, many of which are nowadays still relevant. The most emphasized principles are activity, motivation and student's perception with the use of all senses. The last mentioned principle can be ensured by the activity-oriented teaching; student can be motivated and exacerbated by problem-oriented or project teaching. Theoretical part of the thesis is dedicated to the definition of principles, understanding of the activity principle before and today, its use in the foreign language teaching and the definition of aims and key competencies. Following practical part describes realization of two projects where was validated that inclusion of projects into German language teaching is suitable motivating and exacerbating means in case the aims and methods are selected appropriately. KEY WORDS: J. A. Comenius, didactical principles, teaching of German language, activity, activity-oriented teaching, project teachin
Trust fund in Business Relations
Full text linkTrust Fund in Business Relations Author: Milan Sýkora Supervisor: prof. JUDr. Stanislava Černá, CSc. This diploma thesis deals with transplantation of trusts into the Czech Civil Code in the form of "svěřenský fond" (fiduciary fund) and with possibilities of this instrument in the world of commerce. The essential question is whether svěřenský fond is capable of replacing Anglo-Saxon trust in the following standard financial transactions: (i) syndicated loans, (ii) issues of bonds, (iii) subordination, (iv) securitization and (v) collective investment. In total, this thesis comprises of seven chapters, including the Introduction and the Conclusion. After an introduction, uncommonly, a prologue follows. This Prologue outlines a new, unusual instrument of the Czech law - svěřenský fond. It refers to the particular legislation and outlines questions that arise with this recently transplanted device. The third chapter defines trust using comparative law and deals with its historical development both on the British Islands and in the civil and mixed jurisdictions. The second subchapter argues that the so-called obstacles of trust reception into civil law are not based on solid arguments. Further, I describe experience of trust reception in selected civil law and mixed jurisdictions. In the fourth..
State Aid Law in the Czech Republic
Full text linkUNIVERZITA KARLOVA V PRAZE PRÁVNICKÁ FAKULTA DISERTAČNÍ PRÁCE Právo veřejných podpor v České republice 2012 JUDr. Jiří Buryan, LL.M. Školitel: prof. JUDr. Stanislava Černá, CSc. Summary The subject-matter of the thesis "Právo veřejných podpor v České republice" ("State Aid Law in the Czech Republic") is regulation of state aids within the European Union and especially its impacts on the legal order of the Czech Republic. The author's approach is that the regulation of state aids, although originating from the EU law, has significant impacts into the Czech law, into the areas of business, competition, administrative and civil law. Hence, the basic aim of the thesis is not only to describe the state aid regulation on the EU level but also to specify implications to the Czech law and interactions between the state aid rules and Czech national laws. In this respect, the thesis enters a new field within the Czech academic literature. No other similar work has been published, with exception of Michael Kincls's work "Veřejná podpora v Evropské unii" ("State Aid Law in the European Union") of 2004 which was, however, aimed more as an easily understandable hand-book for public authorities granting aids than as an academic work. In the introductory chapters of the thesis the author explains what is the purpose of the..
Contract for the sale of enterprise
Full text linkTHESIS TITLE OF THESIS: Contract for the sale of enterprise AUTHOR: Mgr. Vladimír Trnavský DEPARTMENT: Commercial law department ADVISOR: Prof. JUDr. Stanislava Černá, Csc. The theme of the thesis is "contract for the sale of enterprise". The theme itself is very acctented within the frame of legal practice. The main goal of this work is to outline the development genesis of the legal term enterprise since the time of classical roman law period to the contemporary legal regulation and subsequently, after defining the fundamental charts of the contract for the sale of enterprise, to answer specific questions resulting from the contract for the sale of enterprise in specific situations, i.e. the question of joint ownership of enterprise, legal frame of joint ownership relating to particular components of the enterprise, question of plurality on one or both parties to a contract a its consequences in commercial and labour law. The assess of creation of active and passive solidarity and its impact on the sale of enterprise i salso emphasized. Among the thesis goals also belongs the finding the answer on query of specific property values (for example the shares in cooperative society) with respect to the person who acquires the entrerprise and with respect to possible plurality of buyers. The goal of..
Pseudo-random properties of a linear congruential generator investigated by b-adic diaphony
No full textLanguage Learning Activity Paradigm
Full text linkIn this study, I investigate the application of active learning approaches, with the help of call and mall frameworks. These interactive learning solutions emphasize learner-created content, with the goal of improving the vocabulary development of grade 7 students. It is assumed that the use of computer and mobile technologies can increase the capacity for learning vocabulary. With a concept prototype, that demonstrates the translation of a textually based Language Arts lesson plan into a visual paradigm for active learning, I create a more porous and malleable language learning model for the Google Generation. My hypothesis is that this prototype will benefit the learning of Language Arts for 7th grade students. Such an instrument could ultimately provide students with the opportunity to engage in knowledge creation and sharing across formal and informal learning environments. The methodology used for this thesis essay begins with defining a problem by utilising both academic and qualitative studies. This is followed by the collecting of evidence from alternative learning approaches, which are defined by their various strengths and deficiencies through product analysis, case studies and theoretical grounds. The essay concludes with a proposed design and concept prototype testing, which I have called The Language Learning Activity Paradigm (llap)

Electrochemical synthesis of CO2-methanol utilizing direct air capture, CO2 electrolysis and H2O electrolysis: A life cycle assessment
No full textThis thesis examines the production of an alternative liquid hydrocarbon fuel, namely CO2-methanol, produced utilising DAC, CO2 electrolysis, H2O electrolysis and thermo-catalytic synthesis. The reason for such research lies in a persistent growth in global energy demand, a significant share of which comes from liquid fuels, in the present context of global climate change.We answer the main research question ‘What is the comparative environmental performance of DAC methanol, natural gas methanol and biomethanol?’ by meeting three research objectives. The first objective provides a two-level analysis of the mass and energy flows within the system and opens the black-box process of the DAC. The second objective leads to undertaking a life cycle assessment of CO2-methanol. Last, the third objective evaluates the suitability of LCA for the environmental assessment of realistic industrial processes.The results of objective one show that mass and energy balances on the DAC process contain inaccuracies and help to identify unknowns in the remaining parts of the CO2-methanol production. The second objective illustrates that the CO2-methanol performs better than fossil methanol and biomethanol in terms of climate change impact and land use. Additionally, CO2-methanol causes a lower extent of environmental impact on human toxicity (non-carcinogenics) and resource depletion (water) in comparison with biomethanol, however, scores worse on these impact categories when compared with fossil methanol. The environmental performance of CO2-methanol inferior compared to both biomethanol and fossil methanol in terms of freshwater ecotoxicity, human toxicity (carcinogenics) and resource depletion (mineral, fossils, and renewables). Finally, the third objective points to imperfect LCA software available, not sufficient to model realistic industrial processes.Master of Science in Industrial Ecology at TU Delft and Leiden University Completed at Leiden University in accordance with Climate KIC Mobility requirementsIndustrial Ecolog
