Czech teachers attitudes to the formal language

Tématem této práce je vztah učitelů češtiny ke spisovnému jazyku. Zvolila jsem si je po přečteni článku Fr. Čermáka, P.Sgalla a P. Vybírala s názvem Od školské spisovnosti ke standardní češtině (Čermák - Sgall - Vybiral 2005). Autoři se v něm kromě jiného snažili nastolit otázku, zda by se jazykovědci a vůbec lidé zabývajici se češtinou a jejim vyučováním ve školách, neměli hlouběji zamyslet nad tim, proč vlastně máme v naši mateřštině útvar, kterému se řiká spisovná čeština.

It was also necessary to have a look at the ordinary situation of teaching Czech at schools and to define the attitudes of the teachers of Czech to one aspect of the subject they teach (to the formal language). This is mainly contained in chapter six. Chapter five includes an article called The Profile of a (Typical) Czech Teacher by Vladimir Smilauer (Liberec, 1969) and compares it to the current situation at the schools in the Czech Republic. The practical part was compiled from twenty-one questionaires that were...Katedra českého jazyka a katedra české literaturyFaculty of EducationPedagogická fakult
