    Aplikace (geo)demografických metod v oblasti vzdělávání Abstrakt Diplomová práce představuje možnosti aplikace demografických, geodemografických a statistických metod na data zveřejňovaná školskou statistikou. Z metod demografické analýzy je ukázáno využití měr, konceptu vícestavové demografie spolu s Markovovými řetězci a dále aplikace úmrtnostních tabulek. Těmito postupy jsou hodnoceny míry účasti na jednotlivých vzdělávacích stupních, průměrná délka školní docházky a počet odchodů z ročníku. Markovovy řetězce, které jsou založeny na pravděpodobnostech přechodu mezi ročníky, jsou také hodnoceny z hlediska jejich užití pro prognostické potřeby. Těmito metodami je analyzována situace na úrovni předškolního, základního a středního vzdělávání. Data potřebná pro tuto část práce pochází z běžně publikovaných Statistických ročenek školství. Na poli geodemografie je prezentován preferenční model migračních toků. Na konkrétním příkladu je zkoumáno, jak uchazeči o vysokoškolské studium preferují či naopak depreferují kraje České republiky jako cílové oblasti pro vysokoškolské studium. Poslední užitou metodou je binární logistická regrese, pomocí níž jsou analyzovány nerovnosti v přístupu ke vzdělávání na úrovni vysokého školství. Obě závěrečné metody jsou aplikovány na data z datové svodky Ústavu pro informace ve...Application of (geo)demographic methods in education Abstract This master's thesis presents the possibilities of application of demographic, geodemographic and statistical methods on data published by the educational sector. The methods of demographic analysis are represented by the usage of rates, the concept of multistate demography (Markov chains) and the application of life tables. The enrollment ratio at particular levels of education, the average length of schooling and the number of dropouts from school grades are evaluated by these procedures. Markov chains which are based on the probabilities of transition between grades are also examined in terms of their use for forecasting purposes. These methods analyze the situation at the preschool, primary and secondary levels and are used on data from the annual Statistical Yearbooks on Education. In the field of geodemography, the so called preferential model of migration flows is presented. This model examines how applicants for tertiary education prefer or reject the regions of the Czech Republic for their tertiary education studies. The last method is the binary logistic regression which analyzes the inequalities in access to tertiary education. Both preferential model and logistic regression are based on data files on the admission process at...Katedra demografie a geodemografieDepartment of Demography and GeodemographyPřírodovědecká fakultaFaculty of Scienc
