Text posudku (rozsah dle zvážení oponenta)

Introduction

It is not easy to evaluate the monograph reviewed with 3 polish experts. The topic can be
considered as the most important related to  recent health oriented physical education.  Tourism is
the strong social “sport” phenomenon even in cooperation between Poland and former Czechoslovakia
since historical period up to these days.

Description

The text of  presented monograph consisted from 183 text pages and about 80 references
(international authors are unfortunately missing which seems to be problem of section 3 - the
method).  The topic is well described related to historical context and former as so as recent
legislation.  Survey of  various categories and/or kinds of tourism is well organized related to
formulated criteria and quoted authors.  This part (Introduction and Section 1) can be recognized
as strong part of the text. In spite of the text I recommend to clarify terminology:  migration –
travelling – pilgrimming - discovering – mountaineering – tourism.

The monograph is structure related to 5 logical sections: sections  are separated but cohesive.
Each section is accompanied with short summary which underline main ideas or results of the
sub-part.

Text Analyses

Section 2 (Tourism in school education programs) is oriented on different aspects of tourism in
school education. University school level is stressed (in complete text – which is controversial
with the title of  the monograph).  Survey of legislation (elementary – secondary school,
obligatory – optional) would be interesting as well as type of special schools.

Section 3 (The methods) is  weak  part of the monograph which influences the results, Section 4.
Even the sub-parts introduce university population (total sample, male-female, study program etc.)
process of  data collection and data analyses, research management, ethical consensus, etc. are
missing.  Formal problem relevant to crucial point  “methods”  is – various  type of tables and
figures, different points, evaluation in points, in percentage  which make difficult to understand
the results better.  Research question in pre-ambula  of each sub-part  are good but presented
results (tables, figures) are relevant with qwuestionnaire theses??? It is not clear. Questionnaire
(HGK/PO-2009/10-II/I/IS – author´s questionnaire) is not documented either in text or in appendix
neither in reference list. Document of questionnaire (manual or guide book or published version) is
the most important part of habilitation discussion.

The most important ideas related to “tourism “ in university PE  education are step by step,
systematically described, even  achieved results  based on questionnaire can be considered only as
opinion of  respondents (university students) and not real facts.

Section 5 (Summary) is similar like discussion but in the end the quality of training of PE
graduates, motivation for tourism classes, attractiveness of tourism are stressed.

Conclusion

The monograph is important  part of Kinanthropology (Human Movement Sciences – PE) issue. The
extensive number of participants in field research is exclusive part  of presented research
program. In spite of critical remarks the topic of the monograph with presented achievements seems
to be very good contribution to tourism improvement.
