Nowe w pedagogice, a może „dobrze” zapomniane stare – o dwóch koncepcjach edukacji w opracowaniach ewangelickich nauczycieli Jana Kubisza i Jana Bystronia
The New in Pedagogy or the “Well” Forgotten Old – on Two Concepts of Education in the Works of Evangelical Teachers Jan Kubisz and Jan Bystroń

Summary/Abstract: The study is aimed at recalling two examples illustrating forgotten concepts – of teaching and functioning of the school as an organization. Choosing them out of many other possible examples, resulted from the need to emphasize the contribution of Evangelical teachers and scientists to the development of pedagogy. Both concepts differ in their range and contents. What they have in common is that they have not resulted in any references (adequate to the contents) in scientific literature. The first example is a colloquial description of the process of Jan Kubisz’s teaching, which is a part of his "Pamiętnik Starego Nauczyciela" [An Old Teacher’s Diary] published in 1928. This is a description quite detached from scientific models, which explains its absence in academic works on pedagogy. However, the thesis can be put forward that this collection of unorganized reflections is strictly associated with the assumptions of the constructivist strategy of education. Th e second example is Jan Bystroń’s coherent concept, published in a scientific work. Th e concept is referred to in some studies (especially in the field of sociology of education) – however, these references are rather incidental. It is no use seeking any blinding traces of the concept in the current discussion directly related to the organizational culture of school. It is precisely this field where the association can be seen between its basic assumptions and another theory popular in contemporary studies on the pedagogy of school and school management.
