Barriers to participation in polarized online discussions about Covid-19 and the Russo-Ukrainian War
Even though social networking sites create a unique online public space for the exchange of opinions, only a small share of citizens participate in online discussions. Moreover, research has depicted current online discussions as highly uncivil, hostile, and polarized, and the number of heated discussions has escalated in the last two years because of health, social, and security crises. This study investigates the perceived barriers to participation in Facebook discussions, focusing on two topics: the Covid-19 pandemic and the Russo-Ukrainian War. It explores the role that the negativity of these online discussions has on participation. To investigate the perspectives of users and their personal experiences with online discussions in times of crisis, we apply a qualitative research method and interviews with participants. We collected and analyzed 50 semi-structured interviews with Czech Facebook users who participated in discussions during the spring of 2021 (i.e., Covid-19) and the spring of 2022 (i.e., Russo-Ukrainian War). The results show that, after initial mobilization at the beginning of the pandemic, the crisis reinforced several crucial barriers to participation in discussions due to the perceived persistence of polarization (e.g., the spread of disinformation, the bipolar character of discussions, negative perception of opponents), which subsequently spread to other areas and issues. The data also implies that these barriers tend to demobilize less active participants, those who do not have strong opinions, and participants who think the subject matter is not worth the heated exchange of opinions

Má bakalářská práce se zabývá tím, jak cvičení na BOSU? Balance trainer ovlivňuje pohybový aparát člověka.
V teoretické části jsme čerpali z mnoha odborných pramenů. Podrobně popisujeme historii BOSU, co to vlastně je, zásady cvičení, indikace a kontraindikace. Dále zde také uvádíme vybrané fyzioterapeutické přístupy, které jsme použili ať už ve vyšetření, tak v samotné terapii.
Praktická část se skládá z kazuistik a z dotazníku. V první části uvádíme kazuistiky 3 pacientů s odlišnými diagnózami. U všech jsme odebrali anamnézu, provedli vyšetření, stanovili krátkodobý rehabilitační plán a následně provedli terapii. Vše podrobně popisujeme a zaznamenáváme v praktické části bakalářské práce.
V části druhé jsme provedli výzkum na podkladě dotazníku. Dotazník se skládá z 10 otázek, na které odpovědělo celkem 30 probandů. Výsledky dotazníku jsou taktéž uvedeny v praktické části bakalářské práce.

Proposal of the Communication Strategy of International Degree Programmes taught at the Faculty of International Relations of the University of Economics, Prague
The bachelor's thesis "Marketing Communication of International Degree Programmes taught at the Faculty of International Relations of the University of Economics, Prague" is focused on the field of communication to international students. Given the fact that there is currently an overall lack of interest in higher education while the range of international degree programmes is expanding, the analysis of the current communication of the university towards to the prospective students could lead to an improvement in the communication channels of the faculty. The work is focused mainly on digital communication, which is currently the most important tool for reaching young people. It also dedicates itself to education fairs attended by the faculty in the last year as well as the ones where FMV programmes were presented by the University of Economics, Prague or the Study in Prague Consortium representatives. The marketing and PR activities of the faculty will also be studied. The aim of the thesis is to propose optimization and streamlining of FMV's future communication channels in order to raise awareness and interest in the offered international degree programmes.Bakalářská práce s názvem „Marketing cizojazyčných programů vyučovaných na Fakultě mezinárodních vztahů VŠE v Praze“ se zaměřuje na oblast komunikace směrem k zahraničním studentům. Vzhledem k tomu, že v současné době dochází k celkovému snížení zájmu o vysokoškolské studium, zatímco se nabídka cizojazyčných programů rozšiřuje, analýza současné komunikace školy směřující k zahraničním uchazečům o studium povede k navržení zlepšení komunikačních kanálů Fakulty mezinárodních vztahů. Práce se zaměřuje zejména na digitální komunikaci, která je v současné době nejvýznamnějším nástrojem, kterým se dají oslovit mladí lidé. Dále se věnuje veletrhům, kterých se v posledním roce fakulta aktivně účastnila, případně na kterých byly programy FMV prezentovány pod hlavičkou VŠE či konsorcia Study in Prague. Rovněž jsou v práci studovány marketingové a PR aktivity fakulty. Cílem práce je na základě výstupu z analýzy navrhnout optimalizaci a zefektivnění budoucích komunikačních prostředků FMV pro zvýšení povědomí a v důsledku i zájmu o nabízené cizojazyčné studijní programy
