Voice management from an educational point of view

Summary/Abstract: The article focuses on the voice management skills in secondary school graduates. It consists of three parts. Part one is a presentation of the results of analyses of statements with respect to selected paralingual elements influencing the effectiveness of a statement (such as voice intensity, tone, speaking tempo, pausing and phrasing). Part two is an analysis of the core curricula (of 1999, 2002, 2009, 2017) related to the aspects of developing the paraverbal code. Emphasis is put in this part on how the content of the core curricula is incorporated in the latest Polish language teaching handbooks. In the final part of the article – a summary – I attempt to find an answer to the following question: why are so many pupils not able to properly manage their voice?
