Summary/Abstract: The article presents references to European and world experiences in the field of pedagogy “New Education”, which were most often presented through scientific or popular science journals. One of them was the “Ruch Pedagogiczny” (The Pedagogical Movement), edited by Henryk Rowid, the author of the concept of the “school of work”. In this journal were published articles presenting pedagogical views of such educators as John Dewey, Georg Kerschensteiner, Helen Parkhurst, Ovide J. Declory, Rudolf Steiner and others. The articles published in “The Pedagogical Movement” were aimed at encouraging teachers to abandon traditional teaching and education methods (based on the assumptions of Herbart’s 19th century pedagogy) and to choose innovative pedagogical solutions.
