Pytania o autokreację w perspektywie działań twórczych

Author(s): Alina Górniok-Naglik,Arkadiusz Wąsiński / Language(s): Polish Issue: 2/2018

The topic discussed in this article makes a reason for further research and study over the auto-creation. The analysis over a creative transformation in the course of life leads to a crystallisation of individual processes of autocreation. The vision of the world and ourselves evolves in the course of life which has a crucial connection with a crystallising and creative attitude and a variable picture of works, which are constantly created from the start in a new perspective born from creator’s experience and feelings. Consequently, a piece of work composes, on the one hand, creator’s individuality, on the other hand it exceeds him or her into the world, and finally it makes a new creator. The complexity of reflexions taken up within auto-creation combines an existential and axiological perspective inducing a subject to make symbolic signposts to follow from an autobiographical perspective. An autobiographical narrative makes a crucial key to meet and understand human existence. The return to biographical research links to the necessity (and the possibility) to place a potential study on auto-creation in creative action within the interpretative paradigm. It makes it possible to define individual profiles of self-creation in the course of life in the context of original acts. In the broader research perspective, these profiles may become a signpost and confirmation of other people’s activities on their way to self-education. Moreover, they make it possible to establish similarities and differences between creators.

Ciało, język i współczucie dla edukacji pokoleń jako cele konstruowania teatralnych przestrzeni edukacji dorosłych

Author(s): Edyta Nieduziak / Language(s): Polish Issue: 2/2018

The article is an attempt to analyse six texts published on the occasion of the International Theatre Day in 2018, in terms of identifying categories that could serve as targets for adult education.

Interdisciplinarna perspektiva istraživanja obrazovanja odraslih

Author(s): Nikola Pastuović / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 11/2017

The paper presents features of monodisciplinary, polydisciplinary and interdisciplinary research in education, and the application thereof in adult education research. Differences in the presence of the monodisciplinary and the polydisciplinary approaches in the adult education theory (andragogy) of pedagogical origin, and the adult education theory based on educational sciences, are stressed. Furthermore, there exists a trend towards the interdisciplinary research of adult education, and the tendency for andragogy to synthesize the knowledge from other educational sciences in the adult education domain, representing the added scientific value thereof, thanks to which it may be considered a separate educational science. Implications of the scientific development of andragogy in relation to the adult education study are analyzed.

Standard „niewiedzy” lub ucieczka od transparentności? Ekspresje rygoru metodologicznego w raportach z badań

Author(s): Sławomir Pasikowski / Language(s): Polish Issue: 2/2018

The article is devoted to the issue of deviations of research procedure from the pattern of methodological correctness expressed in the specific methodological rigors. Standard of communication of the research course and its results are also encompassed by the rigors. The text considers the issue of factors determining the occurrence of these deviations, cataloguing these deviations and the issue of the relationship between the author and the reader determined by the awareness of weaknesses in the research procedure exposed in the research report. Therefore, a model explaining this relationship and related classes of communication situations formed around the empirical report is proposed. This model could be a starting point for research on the social legitimacy of deviations from the pattern of methodological correctness and standards of scientific communication.

Competences for lifelong learning of pedagogy students in Croatia and Poland

Author(s): Nina Rapo / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2018

Lifelong learning is a strategic development priority of the Europeancountries because it brings social stability and progress and economic growth byan appropriately trained, adaptable and mobile workforce. In order to participatein lifelong learning and mobility programs, it is assumed that these people need tohave lifelong learning competences: (1) setting educational goals; (2) the applicationof appropriate knowledge and skills; (3) self-direction and self-evaluation;(4) finding the necessary information; (According to Kirby R. et al., 2010) and(1) independence in learning and (2) learning habits (according to Macaskill andTaylor 2009). For the purpose of exploring the development of competences forlifelong learning, a research has been conducted with pedagogy students of the lastyears of undergraduate and graduate studies of the University of Rijeka and theNicolaus Copernicus University in Poland. In order to measure Lifelong Learningcompetences, questionnaires from Kirby R. et al. (2010) and Macaskill and Taylor(2009) were used in this research. The aim of the research was to examine whetherthe students of pedagogy in Croatia and Poland have lifelong learning competences,whether there are differences between Croatian and Polish students and whether thereis a link between lifelong learning competences for students and their inclusion inlifelong learning and mobility programs. The results showed that respondents highlyevaluate the claims of all of the Lifelong Learning competences examined but, on theother hand, are poorly involved in lifelong learning and mobility programs.

Adaptive Learning: Context and Complexity

Author(s): Charles Dziuban,Colm Howlin,Patsy D. Moskal,Connie Johnson,Mitchell Eid,Brandon Kmetz / Language(s): English Issue: 5/2018

Adaptive learning technologies impact higher education by modifying the traditional time constraints placed on the learningcycle, thus permitting students to compress or expand their learning spaces. Previous work by the authors has demonstrated dimensional stability in the adaptive process across universities with considerably different strategic initiatives. However, a prevailingquestion remains about the correspondence of student position on those components. Transformed component scores for the fourstable dimensions (knowledge acquisition, engagement, growth and communication) have been contrasted for comparability inbeginning Algebra, College Algebra and Nursing courses at the University of Central Florida and the Colorado Technical University on several metrics generated by the Realizeit adaptive learning platform. The results indicated considerable variability instudent affinity for the underlying dimensions depending on a number of considerations such as course length, subject area, andthe instructional design process. The authors have concluded that adaptive learning is a complex system in which the interactionof the elements becomes more important than individual measures for understanding the emergent property of this learningenvironment. Finally, they contend that the potential value added of adaptive learning must be carefully considered with respectto its opportunity cost.

Gerontologopedia, czyli pedagogia osób starszych, które nie mówią, ale mają własne zdanie

Author(s): Adam A Zych / Language(s): Polish Issue: 3/2018

This paper is on the language, speech, and communication of older adults who are at times affected by illness and/or disability. European society is rapidly ageing. Thirty years ago, Europe was called “an aging Europe”, whereas today it is known as “the old man of the world.” The Polish population today is the “fastest ageing society in Europe…”. Basic demographic, medical and social issues are reflected by the health condition of the oldest generation. The last few years have seen the development of a new category, called “gerontologopaedics” or “logopaedics of the elderly”, a field at the cusp of speech therapy and gerontology. This paper presents the main aims and tasks of this nascent pedagogy of older adults who do not speak, but have their own opinions. The paper ends with the conclusion that in the future, a new field of logopaedics will need to be developed in the field of special geragogy – gerontologopaedics.

Czy potrzebne są kwalifikacje rynkowe w dziedzinie bhp? Nowe rozwiązania i możliwości

Author(s): Beata Taradejna-Nawrath / Language(s): Polish Issue: 7/2019

At the end of 2015 The Sejm of the Republic of Poland passed a law on the Integrated Qualification System. The Act of 22 December 2015 on IQS introduced solutions and opportunities for integrating all qualifications obtained within formal and non-formal education, ensuring the quality of granted qualifications, confirming competences acquired outside the education and higher education systems. The question is: there is a need to introduce market-based qualifications in the field of health and safety at work considering new developments and opportunities to acquire professional qualifications. Market qualifications could be applied for by people interested in working in the area of a given qualification, who would show a separate part or all of the learning outcomes required for a given qualification. The article presents the idea of the Integrated Qualification System and the report from the research on the demand for market qualifications. The survey was conducted in the environment that is most relevant to health and safety at work - employers, OSH specialists and entities operating on the market in this area.

Author(s): Simona Lidia Sava,Anca Luştrea / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2019

In 2019, the Journal of the Educational Studies (JES) celebrates its 20th anniversary, which is not automatically self-explanatory, not for a Romanian scientific journal in this discipline, and not even for any other prestigious scientific journal. Our journal has faced three main challenges in this period: first, the question of language and internationalization, closely linked to the delivery mode, secondly, the changes of the institutional context, and finally, the development of the discipline. In what follows, we will outline the development of the JES according to the challenges mentioned above, give an overview of the topics and structure adopted by the JES for the last 20 years and highlight the contributions to this special edition on the topic of generational and scientific changes in educational research in this period.

What we can learn from intergenerational collaboration in research?

Author(s): Irina Maslo / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2019

The purpose of this biographical paper is to reflect generational changes in the landscape of educational sciences during the last 20 years. Rapid change within the educational science generations on the one hand, and in the gap between the research-generations has been observed in the last years at the international level. despite this fact, the intergenerational collaborative research has had impact on carrier advancement of younger research generations. Therefore, this paper aims to find out the evidence on what we can learn in intergenerational research collaboration. The theoretical background of the current paper is based on the human collaboration concept in the form of transfer and transforming the best practice patterns and developing self-experience with new knowledge, skills, and attitudes (špona, 2018: 18). The ethnomethodology of ex-post-facto ‘inner-dialogue’ was chosen to find answers to the research question, targeted on reflecting on collaboration as social life impact on selected different researcher generation cases with the career advancement from school teacher to scientific institute director as a method of analysis of the human collaborative practice of perceiving people, places and events as “categories” of “collaboration,” and to use these to explain collaborative actions. the evidence of scientific, social and practical impact of intergenerational collaboration, and the sustainability of collaborative research will be explained, based on experience with the excellent team of West-Timisoara University. Biographical intergenerational collaboration stories of three research generations have impacted research career advancement and will contribute to the international discussion on what we can learn from intergenerational collaboration in research.
