Item Bariery i przykłady wsparcia w procesie edukacji w środowisku osób z wadami słuchu(Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, 2017) Iwanicka, BeataThe article presents the problems of deaf and hard of hearing people in education. This topic is widely analyzed. The text describes the difficulties experienced by students at school, at various stages of learning, and the barriers experienced by deaf and hard of hearing students at higher education levels. In general, the hearing deficit entails various communication complications. The person with hearing impairment has a limited opportunity to have different experiences and what is most important in the text – hearing loss or deafness often makes it impossible to gain an optimal education. There are different methods of educating people from the non-hearing environment, depending on the degree of hearing impairment. Hearing impaired student often has difficulty understanding Polish, as it is not always their first language (their first language may be the Polish sign language). Hearing impaired students sometimes don’t understand academic texts because they have weaker poorer vocabulary due to their communication dysfunction. Another issue is the social isolation of many people with hearing impairments which often have a dilemma which environment to integrate with – with hearing or hearing impaired? Teaching staff approaches such people in different ways. Stereotypes do not help in educational progress (for example, the assumption that such students communicate only in sign language). It is important to be aware of the types of hearing loss and the different types of hearing (each hearing impaired hears differently and needs an individual approach). Finally, the article discusses the issue of education of people with hearing impairment from the category of “space”. Through “space” you can understand here the environment (school space, classes and associated architectural-acoustic barriers) as well as the language of the Deaf. The sign language is specifically designed for living space (some of the signatures must be shown in the specified movement and direction, depending on the intention of the sender).Item Defining the Role of the Counselor(Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, 2017) Nasreen, HawariIn the professional literature regarding the various aspects of the nature on counseling, two terms that define the work of the school counselor stand out in particular: guidance and counseling (Kligman, 1990). The role of the educational counselor could be defined as a unique individual contact which purpose is to promote change and growth in three aspects: personal development, social adjustment and professional development. By this definition, counseling is perceived as a dynamic process characterized by the change in the consultee (Kligman, 1990). Educational counseling is meant to advance the emotional, cognitive and social development of the pupil population in the education system, and to lead the construction of an environment that allows for mental well-being for those growing in it, Educational counseling is aimed to assist the student as an individual, and to the school as a social-organizational system, to reach maximum functionality and to best extract their capabilities from emotional well-being in a supportive and accepting environment (Shefi, Psychilogical Counseling Service (Shefi) policy issue: Work as a Consultant in early childhood, 2002). The counselor is the system’s mental well-being go-to man. His availability inside the school faculty allows him to assist both the individual and the environment, to take the best actions whilst rapidly responding to the student, the faculty and the parents. His location as a faculty member enables him to simultaneously see various, and sometimes opposite, needs of all the target audiences, and to hold a balanced perspective on regulation, to arbitrate and mediate opposite stances. The counselor is a liaison with a systematic viewpoint from inside the school and between the school and the community. His professional purpose regards the entire student population whilst taking into account their various needs and the obligated response these variation dictate.Item Edukacja religijna w Anglii – budowanie spójności społecznej i obywatelskiej w warunkach pluralizmu kulturowego(Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, 2017) Hejwosz-Gromkowska, DariaFaith institutions play a vital role in shaping social structure, social capital and social cohesion. Both religious and citizenship education can contribute to making good citizens. The latter is more political oriented, while the former is focused on faith, spirituality and morality. The English model of religious education is oriented towards a multi-faith dialogue, without the aspects of worship and confession. The phenomenological approach assures that every child, regardless of their religious background, is obligated to attend religious education. Today, the UK is facing many challenges, including secularization and cultural differentiation of the society. Thus, the educational institutions revise curricula and aims of learning. The aim of the paper is to present and analyze the main premises of educational policy in the context of religious education in public schools in England. I will also attempt to reconstruct the social and political ongoing debate on the aims of RE.Item Edukacja wielokulturowa szansą na integrowanie uchodźców ze społecznością lokalną(Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, 2017) Nazaruk, Stanisław; Klim-Klimaszewska, AnnaCurrently we are witnessing migration, which for different reasons exhibits a growth tendency.

Teoria i praktyka społeczna, Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, Poznań 2016, ss. 395(Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, 2017) Andraszczyk, WojciechItem From Being Sedentary to Being Active: Shifting Patterns of Idleness Among Children(Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, 2017) Hirsh, AlonPhysical activity is defined as body movement produced by muscle action that increases energy expenditure. The lifestyle of hominids/humans included physical activity. The way of life associated with hunting, gathering, and agriculture. During the Hellenic Age (336-30 B.C.), Sports were considered “physical training for health”, and agonal (competitive) gymnastics were highly regarded. For Romans, some body movements served the purpose as preparation for war and the military. Our young people live in a social and physical environment that makes it easy to be sedentary. The benefits of physical activity for children, though seemingly obvious. Physical activity can reduce anxiety, feelings of stress. A reduction in sedentary behavior can be achieved with minimal financial or time requirements. Positive experiences with physical activity at a young age help lay the basis for being regularly active throughout early and later adulthood. Recommended physical activity guidelines differ according to age group. Performance of a wide variety of physical activities is important for refining already learned motor skills. Sport participation, appropriately directed, could be involved in the development of character, work discipline, teamwork, fair play, and other socially approved characteristics.Item Kontrowersje wokół kulturowych (re)adaptacji języka angielskiego – przykład Japonii(Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, 2017) Gromkowska-Melosik, AgnieszkaThe article is aimed at reconstructing the selected problems of English language adaptation in Japanese society. The author is convinced that there is a whole range of phenomena and paradoxes in Japan that fit perfectly the dilemma of cultural and national controversies around the English as a global language and around the concept of cultural imperialism. The main tension is connected with the fact that such societies as Japan want to keep their own mono-ethnicity and it is obvious that one of the most important components of it is native language treated as a form of embodiment of Japanese values and traditions. So, English is a threat to monolith of Japanese nation. On the other hand Japanese are aware that English helps their nation to rise the chance in global competition in global markets as well as it connects Japan to the world culture.Item Między poczuciem akceptacji, wsparcia a wykluczeniem – uwarunkowania różnych dróg adaptacji dzieci do szkoły(Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, 2017) Farnicka, Marzanna; Liberska, HannaThe present study includes selected conditions of adaptation to the school.

In an effort to demonstrate the unique socio-political status and cultural orientation of the PAI, the historical background of Palestinians in Israel is provided as well as a description of the educational system in Israel, with emphasis on Arab sector education. Against this background, I examine: (1) issues of education and identity among PAI and (2) the potential for identity conflict. Since the majority of teachers in the Arab sector are women, issues of gender relations are also discussed. The narrative methodology is recommended for further research on the way in which Palestinian Arab teachers, as potential agents of social change, relate to the broader cultural context in which they live and how identity issues are managed and expressed in the context of professional roles. The author of this article is a Palestinian Arab teacher in the Israeli educational system. This provides an opportunity for an in-depth analysis of the phenomena presented from an “insider” perspective.Item Neoliberalizm i desekularyzacja jako dwa wymiary reform edukacji we współczesnej Turcji(Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, 2017) Hildebrandt-Wypych, DobrochnaThe text focuses on neoliberalism and desecularisation as two major dimensions of social and educational change in contemporary Turkey. Key educational reforms of recent years are discussed from the perspective of the conservative-religious turn in Turkish society and politics, particularly noticeable from 2002, i.e. the first AKP electoral success. However, the origins of the Oriental-Western duality of identity, as well as the “use” of Islam for strengthening the new Turkish national identity, can be traced back to Kemalist policy of secularisation and modernization of Turkish society. This peculiar merge of neoliberal and religious symbols is also visible in education, where selforientalizing, nationalizing and secularizing discourses mix with the pressure on selection, effectiveness and competition in the “western” style. Therefore, the rising importance of faith schools in present day Turkey has also been discussed in the light of the historical Kemalist concept of transformation of Islam and the creation of national, state-controlled “civic religion”.Item Nieetatowe rozwiązanie karierowe jako sposób gromadzenia kapitału kariery(Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, 2017) Litaszewska, ElwiraThe structure of the study was subordinate to the question about the characteristics of career choices undertaken in the discourse of lifelong learning and career planning. The distinguishing mechanisms for selected career development approaches emphasize the importance of entrepreneurial attitudes and the effective use of personal resources. The accumulation of career capital can be a response to the demands of the modern labor market and to the dynamics of the changes taking place within it. This approach is quite strongly focused on non-career career choices, exemplified by start-ups.Item O edukacji w zakresie praw zwierząt.

The first part concerns the criticism of ethical theories based on the idea of direct and indirect moral duties to animals. In the second part are discussed the main concepts and principles of a new way of thinking such as: inherent value, a subject of a life criterion, the respect principle and its derivatives.Item Okrucieństwo, przemoc i wychowanie według Michela de Montaigne’a.

Coaching i filozofia dialogu – konstruktywne spotkanie(Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, 2017) Teusz, GrażynaThe article discusses selected aspects of the philosophy of dialog, and then makes relations between them and the theory and practice of coaching. The platform which significantly bridges the two approaches is the perspective of encounter and the dialogical relation, which come into play in the interpersonal I and You relation (coach – client) and the resultant experience, conditions and consequences. Empathy is one of the possible efficient tools of dialog. It is a criterion for a genuine encounter that is one of the assumptions of the philosophy dialog.Item Report on the 30th Young Pedagogues Summer School “Education Research Traps”, Katowice – Wisła, 12 - 16 September 2016(Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, 2017) Michalak-Dawidziuk, JoannaItem Rytualne i nierytualne oblicze „fali” w szkole(Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, 2017) Jaskulska, SylwiaIn the paper I ask whether the similarities between the institutional hazing and tribal rites of initiation, pointed to by authors who describe this phenomenon, make it possible to talk about a ritual character of the brutal phenomenon of how freshmen are treated by older students, and if they do, then how can it translate into potential preventive measures. I discuss this issue based on the example of hazing at school. Having chosen the distinctive features of the rites of passage as my point of reference, I refer to school hazing as a pseudo-rite and I recommend taking into account its ritual character and the non-ritual objectives it completes in the preventive and repair measures at school.Item Sprawozdanie z „Dnia Czytania” (Der Bundesweite Vorlesetag), Poznań, 18 listopada 2016 roku(Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, 2017) Arciszewska, Katarzyna
