Teacher questions supporting communication in the classroom (on the material of ELT)
BRONOVÁ, Pavlína
2021 - English
Diplomová práce se zabývá otázkami učitele ve třídních interakcích ve výuce anglického jazyka na 2. stupni ZŠ. Mnoho výzkumů totiž ukazuje, že kvalitní otázky učitele vedou k rozvoji komunikace u žáků v cizojazyčné výuce, zvyšují kvalitu a množství žákova jazyka. Teoretická část práce nejprve představuje postavení angličtiny jako školního předmětu v Rámcovém vzdělávacím programu. Nejrozsáhlejší část práce se zabývá vymezením pojmů třídní komunikace a interakce mezi učitelem a žákem nazývanou v anglicky psané literatuře jako IRE nebo IRF. Práce se zaměřuje na iniciaci ve formě otázky a na základě odborné literatury popisuje typy otázek podle různých typologií a zabývá se tím, které otázky učitele jsou ve třídní interakci nejefektivnější. Praktická část vychází z videonahrávek hodin anglického jazyka na 2. stupni ZŠ. Otázky analyzuje na základě popsané typologie a sleduje, které typy otázek nejvíce rozvíjejí komunikaci ve třídě a které ji naopak limitují. The diploma thesis deals with the teacher questions in classroom interaction in the teaching of English at the second stage of primary school. Many studies show that quality teacher questions develop pupils' communication in foreign language teaching, increase the quality and quantity of the pupil's language. The theoretical part of the thesis first presents the position of English as a school subject within the Framework Educational Programme. The most extensive part of the thesis deals with the terms of classroom communication and interaction known as IRE or IRF. Based on the literature, the thesis focuses on initiation in the form of a question and describes the types of questions according to different typologies and tries to find out which teacher questions are most effective in classroom interaction. The practical part is based on video recordings of English language lessons at the second stage of primary school. This part analyses the questions based on the described typology and observes which types of teacher questions develop classroom communication and which, on the contrary, limit it.

Changes in European landscapes. What are driving forces of the changes in European landscapes?
HRDINOVÁ, Amálie
2021 - English
Ústecký kraj je jeden z nejproblematičtějších částí České republiky a to jak z pohledu ekonomického, sociálního tak i environmentálního. Zdejší krajina prošla kvůli lidským aktivitám během posledních 200 let dramatickými změnami. Krajina je (spolu)utvářena lidmi a ti se s ní mnohdy identifikují. Tato práce zkoumá regionální/teritoriální identitu v jednom z městeček v tomto neutěšeném kraji, které navíc v minulosti bylo součástí Sudet. Práce mapuje změny ve využívání krajiny člověkem a vliv historie na podobu krajiny a snaží se identifikovat, jak tyto se tyto změny v krajině propsali do mysli místních obyvatel. Ústecký region is one of the most problematic regions of Czech Republic in economical, social and environmental point of view. The landscape of this region went through big changes in the past 200 years because of the growing influence of the humans. Landscapes are co-created by humans and humans identify with the landscape - these two elements influence each other. This thesis studies identification with territory of inhabitants in a town in Ústecký region that was in the past part of Sudeten. This work observes changes in the land-use and the influence of history on the landscape and tries to identify how these changes influenced the identity of local inhabitants.

GERMANY'S DEVELOPMENT COOPERATION WITH AFRICA Projects in Development Cooperation with the Example of the Vocational Education and Training Project (BINA) between the Beruflichen Fortbildungszentren der Bayerischen Wirtschaft gGmbH (bfz) and the Don Bosco Youth Network West Africa in Ghana
REINHARDT, Anna
2021 - English
Die Durchführung von Entwicklungsprojekten ist ein gängiger Weg in der Entwicklungszusammenarbeit, um die Situation von Entwicklungsländern zu verbessern. Da Projektmanagement-Prozesse oft kompliziert sind, soll durch diese Masterarbeit herausgefunden werden, wie eine erfolgreiche Umsetzung von Projekten im Bereich der Entwicklungszusammenarbeit aussehen kann. Zu diesem Zweck wurde die folgende Forschungsfrage gestellt: Wie können Entwicklungsprojekte erfolgreich umgesetzt werden? Zur Beantwortung der Forschungsfrage wurde eine qualitative Forschung mittels halbstrukturierter leitfadengestützter Experteninterviews durchgeführt. Die qualitative Studie zeigte, dass es eine Reihe von Faktoren gibt, die zu einer erfolgreichen Projektumsetzung beitragen. Zugleich wurde festgestellt, dass Entwicklungsprojekte mit Herausforderungen konfrontiert sind. Dies kann die Dauer eines Projekts, der Ruf einer Durchführungsorganisation oder die Erreichbarkeit des Projektstandorts sein. Anhand eines Berufsbildungsprojektes in Ghana - dem BINA-Projekt - konnten vielversprechende Ansätze für eine erfolgreiche Projektdurchführung identifiziert werden, die sich auf andere Entwicklungsprojekte übertragen lassen. So wurde beispielsweise deutlich, dass ein gutes Konzept ein wichtiger Ansatz ist. Außerdem sollten die Aufgaben und Verantwortlichkeiten klar verteilt sein. Es gibt auch bestimmte Charaktereigenschaften, die Projektmanager mitbringen sollten. Hier sind u. a. eine hohe Motivation oder eine gute Arbeitseinstellung zu nennen. Weiterführende Forschung zu Projekten in der Entwicklungszusammenarbeit könnte dazu beitragen, die Projektimplementierung zu verbessern und damit die Effizienz von Entwicklungsprojekten langfristig zu steigern - nicht nur innerhalb der Entwicklungszusammenarbeit zwischen Deutschland und dem afrikanischen Kontinent, sondern auch für die Entwicklungszusammenarbeit im Allgemeinen. The implementation of development projects is a common way in development cooperation to improve the situation of developing countries. Since project management processes are often complicated, the aim of this Master's thesis is to answer how a successful implementation of projects in the field of development cooperation could look like. For this purpose, the following research question is posed: How can development projects be successfully implemented? To answer the research question, qualitative research was conducted using semi-structured guideline-based expert interviews. The qualitative study showed that there are a number of factors that contribute to successful project implementation. At the same time, it was found that development projects are facing challenges. This can be the duration of a project, the recognition of an implementing organisation, or accessibility of the project location. Based on a vocational education and training project in Ghana - the BINA-project - promising approaches for a successful project implementation could be identified that can be transferred to other development projects. It became evident, for instance, that a good concept is an important approach. In addition, tasks and responsibilities should be clearly divided. There are also certain character traits that project managers should possess. Here, a high level of motivation or a good work attitude can be mentioned, just to name a few. Further research of projects in development cooperation could contribute to an improvement in project implementation and thus increase the efficiency of development projects in the long term - not only within the development cooperation between Germany and the African continent but also for development cooperation in general.

Decision-making in cross-border cooperation in times of the COVID-19 pandemic
SCHNEIDER, Bettina
2021 - English
COVID-19 has caused unprecedented challenges to the decision-making process of cross-border cooperations. In consequence many cross-border cooperations are not able to travel abroad, leading to a fundamental shift from on-site to virtual collaboration. Existing research literature about decision-making and media use does not provide a thorough ex-planation of how the decision-making process changed and how the media is used. This study explores the change that the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus has presented and the technological means project managers use to implement their decisions. For this study, eight project managers were invited to participate in an expert interview and to talk about their experiences of making a decision while working from home. This thesis con-tributes to the Media Synchronicity Theory and Lunenburg's (2010) sequential model by providing an understanding of the procedure of the decision-making process and its media use during the COVID-19 pandemic. The change of the decision-making process resulted in more effort during the now more asynchronous preparation of this process. Moreover, it was found that more documents have been created to visually support this process at any step and the importance of the preparation team has increased. Finally, it was found that due to the change of situation, the decision-making has changed as well and more media is used to support the communication. However, concerning the decision-making itself, it could be observed that although there is a wide range of media to support the decision-making (e.g., voting tools, decision-making trees, decision matrix), hardly any are used.

Exploring the Functioning of Peer-to-peer Online Marketplace Platforms in France and Germany
PLENZ, Rikarda Dorothea Ariane
2021 - English
Purpose - To study the habits and preferences of P2P online marketplace platform users overall and also with regard to national differences between a German and a French P2P platform in the context of the sharing economy and sustainable consumption. Methodology - A literature review identified specific items of interest related to sustainable consumption on P2P online marketplace platforms in the con-text of the sharing economy. A questionnaire was developed and self-administered by two groups of respondents: users of the German platform eBay Kleinanzeigen and users of the French platform leboncoin. Findings - There were some distinct differences between user preferences and habits of both platforms, as well as overarching findings about general use and motivations for P2P platform use. ANOVA results, Chi-square Tests of Independence, as well as t-tests identified amongst other things connections between sustainable intentions and higher use frequency, which in turn was connected to a stronger willingness to increase product life cycles by buying, selling, gifting or receiving broken things. Research limitations/implications - The samples for this study were assembled through snowball and convenience sampling. This limited sampling frame may affect the generalization of findings. For some of the hypotheses, the sample size was insufficient to obtain conclusive results. Practical implications - Both researchers on the topic of sustainable consumption in the sharing economy and managers the P2P platforms in question, as well as similar platforms or those who plan to implement similar platforms with the goal of sustainability, can benefit from the findings of this study. Value - This research contributes to the literature by studying user behaviour and preferences regarding P2P online marketplace platforms in the context of sustainable consumption.
