Abstract Path integration, the ability to track one’s position using self-motion cues, is critically dependent on grid cell network in entorhinal cortex, a region vulnerable early Alzheimer’s disease pathology. In this study, we examined path integration performance individuals with subjective cognitive decline (SCD), group at increased risk for disease, and healthy controls an immersive virtual reality task. We developed Bayesian computational model decompose errors into distinct...

Tato teoreticko-metodologická studie představuje specifický přístup k výzkumu kvality výuky v oborových didaktikách, jenž je založen na anotování – analyzování alterování výukových situací (metodika 3A). Koncepce metodiky vychází z praktického obratu sociohumanitních vědách, který reprezentován dvěma tezemi: (1) Praxe východiskem teorie. (2) Teorie má být prakticky založená a orientovaná. Text seznamuje s ideovým kontextem, hlavními myšlenkami koncepčními zdroji 3A vysvětluje pojetí...

Local Agenda 21 (LA21), a voluntary tool for implementing sustainable development (SD) in local level, is one way of sustainability principles practice. Twenty years after the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development Rio de Janeiro, which made first reference LA21 (intended as framework twenty-first century respecting SD principles), this article deals with evaluating real contribution initiative to implementation practice example selected municipalities Czech Republic. This...

This paper examines the role of competition on waste-collection market. Based case study Czech Republic, we evaluate influence intensity supply side market efficiency services. The rate was approximated by number submitted bids to public tenders and measured per capita expenditures for municipal We developed two regression models – first model verified a competitive effect procurement provision services; second identified factors that affected services capita. concluded in increases...

The present transboundary study of ecosystem services (ES) focusses on a section the Eastern Ore Mountains, rural low mountain range in Germany and Czech Republic. Aims were to quantify five biotope types typical for region (raised bogs, meadows, clearance cairns, near-natural forests, streams), identify some specific (not just monetary) values nature both countries, test appropriate ways communicate ES aspects stakeholders lay public. had cope with country-specific differences terms data...

Anotace: Příspěvek představuje čtvrtou fázi výzkumu kurikulární reformy na gymnáziích.V rovině teoretických východisek výzkum stavěl konceptových analýzách realizovaného kurikula z oborového a didaktického hlediska.Výzkumné otázky se vztahovaly k tomu, jak vybrané ideje (např.klíčové kompetence) odrážejí v reálné výuce

Abstract Recently, the role of nongovernmental organizations (NGOs)s in environmental governance has been widely investigated, especially regarding issue mandatory public participation policy-making within a European context. This paper aims to redirect scientific attention from their pure field actions, i.e., they play actual natural resource management, at local level, and reframe NGO roles positions based on criteria for scale influence. More specifically, this seeks identify factors that...

The paper argues that what is left behind in the current era of accountability educational content. authors present shedding content as great challenge teaching and learning today’s schools. They turn to tradition Bildung outline theoretical background for content-focused approach (research on) learning. Their based on analyses authentic (real-life) situations. highlights how didactic case studies can be used generalize findings across individual cases. Within multiple studies, 44 were...

European towns and cities are facing substantial changes in demographic socioeconomic structure of their inhabitants. Demographic mainly linked with population ageing, i.e. increasing number proportion older people the society, single person households decreasing inhabitants some regions introduce new challenges for smart to tackle changing condition public services provision. Especially waste management seems be affected by these significantly. Our research aimed evaluate how variables...

This study focuses on the role of teachers' pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) in transforming subject matter physics instruction (at lower-secondary school). The purpose present is to investigate nature knowledge. Video recordings were analysed 27 lessons taught by 8 school teachers topic "composition forces". A typology representations was developed inductively. findings show that use various types representations. These illustrate dynamic knowledge, which documented using example a...

Municipal solid waste generation has been analyzed in broad range of studies but most the neglect spatial aspect datasets. This paper’s aim is to explore dependency relations between municipal and socio-demographic aspects. The results obtained using geographically weighted regression are compared with widely used ordinary least square regression. Even though both methods found same significant aspects, we were able explain much higher share intermunicipal variability because this method...

Cílem této empirické studie je: (1) představit žákovský prekoncept jako konstitutivní prvek výuky mateřského jazyka, (2) ukázat na konkrétním příkladu větného členu (přívlastku), že pojetí žákovského prekonceptu klíčové determinanty je nejen opodstatněné, ale přímo nutné; (3) uvést návrh, kudy by se další výzkum i snahy o zlepšování v oblasti mohly ubírat. V první části jsou vymezeny základní pojmy – představa, a koncept analyzováno jejich místo ve výuce jazyka. Následně text věnuje...
