WYCHOWANIE I OPIEKA W OKRESIE POLSKI LUDOWEJ

Der vorliegende Aufsatz ist ein Versuch, den Erziehungs- und Fürsorgestand in bezug auf die moderne polnische Gesellschaft festzustellen, wobei in erster Linie diejenigen Umwandlungen berücksichtigt werden, die sich in dieser Hinsicht in der Geschichte der Volksrepublik Polen vollzogen. Der Aufsatz stützt sich auf eine Reihe von Studien und Analysen, die von mehreren Autoren durchgeführt wurden. Die Untersuchungsergebnisse wurden jedoch synthetisch aufgefaßt, ohne auf die einzelnen Feststellungen und Angaben näher einzugehen. Die Hauptthese des vorliegenden Aufsatzes ist, daß das soziale Bewußtsein der polnischen Gesellschaft in den letzten Jahren einen totalen Wandel erfuhr, der sich grundlegend auf ihre Erziehung auswirkte. Dieser Wandel folgte aus den Prozessen, die mit der Funktionierung des Staatssystems sowie deren Ergebnis, d.h. der gesamten sozialen Erfahrung der Menschen zusammenhingen. Es wurde auf die wichtigsten Richtungen dieses Wandels sowie dessen soziopolitische Voraussetzungen hingewiesen.

Specyfika skali ważonych ocen

The author describes the essence and characteristics of the novel surveying evaluation scale of the educational process. Balancing between quality, intensity and conclusiveness of expressions is a selective clue to choose indicators i.e. stimulus ascertainments to the survey. On the basis of empirical studies of "Informatics Culture" (computer experience and cognizance) the author discusses quantitative parameters of the scale and the way of representing them in practice. Special attention was paid to a contextual representation of results, to the vector method of the appraisal value of alteration in time; and to the issues of inter-group comparability of the process effects.

Constructivist Character of the Technique of Role-Playing Games and its Autonomizing Values in the Glottodidactic Process

To Augustyn Surdyk numerous assumptions of constructivism and constructionism in the educational context seem to correspond with the idea of autonomisation in foreign language didactics. He presents a comparison of selected aspects of the three theories in question on the example of an innovative communicative technique of Role-Playing Games applied in the process of teaching foreign languages at an advanced level. The conventions of the technique with its simplified rules have been borrowed from popular parlour games and adapted by the author to the conditions of language didactics. The elements of play and simulation incorporated in the technique allow it to be rated among techniques of ludic strategy. (from Preface to the book)

University Reforms in the Context of the Bologna Process

Georgia, a former Soviet Union state, has undergone a lot of political, social, economic and of course educational changes. This article shows how Georgia’s higher education system has developed after the collapse of the Soviet Union. As an independent country, Georgia has started developing a free nation with a new type of the education system. The government of Georgia chose the European system of higher education and their major aim was to become a part of the Bologna process. Reforms made in Georgian higher education system have been essential for the country and indeed a lot has changed since the starting period. Georgia managed to hold unified national entry exams and has implemented the ECTS system; there are modern curricula that meet the requirements of European standards. etc. But still, even though a lot is being done, a lack of funding, outdated teaching methods and old facilities in some universities are still unresolved problems.
