    In this article the author presents the late Professor Józef Skrzypczak's life and work as he knew him. Professor Skrzypczak was one of the most eminent researchers in the field of pedagogy and educational studies. His many different interests are discussed. The author also deals with Professor Skrzypczak's research interests, his numerous publications and his cooperation with all the leading centres and researchers in Poland in his field of research. The author considers Professor Skrzypczak to be truly a great modern humanist, man of books and erudite. His death is a great loss to science and to his friends and coworkers.

    Związek edukacji z wartościami
    (Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM Poznań, 2008) Denek, Kazimierz
    The word ‘value’ refers in education and educational disciplines to what an individual, a social group think highly of, what is regarded as significant, and what is experienced as significant. Questions about the status and existence of value have not brought solutions. The ontological status of value depends on what we consider its essence. In gaming, attempts to define value appear to be ineffective. It may be worth explaining with constitutive features which goes into its essence. Constructive and universal values are crucial for education and educational disciplines. They are subject of argument escalated by postmodernism. Does the contemporary individual experience a value crisis? Or maybe it is a crisis of the individual, not the value? Values take an important position in the lives of young Poles. Values decide about their existence, sense and quality of living, interpersonal relations, relation to themselves, peers, parents, teachers and the world. Thus, values in education and educational disciplines require regaining their proper position and sense.
