People with disabilities represent one of the excluded groups whose narratives are not listened to, noticed or treated on equal terms with the narratives of others. Thus, the aim of the authoress' research project was to listen to stories told by those who became disabled in adulthood. Using the narrative interview method she invited and encouraged the disabled to tell stories about their lives, about some significant life episodes, and about how they experience disability in general. Disability triggers great many changes and makes it necessary to redefine one's life and identity all over again. The analysis of life stories obtained from those experiencing disability in adulthood has provided some concepts of biographical learning e.g. 'breaking' of biography, turning point in biography, floating in adulthood. Experiencing disability is one of the situations where emotions show. Therefore, some of the narratives are filled with emotions, which she, as a researcher, also absorbed.

The purpose of this article is to outline the theoretical assumptions of the research project which is biographical learning of Halina Semenowicz. The result of qualitative research is planned to build grounded theory relating to the biographical learning, Halina Semenowicz. The analyzes the author used the biographical research methodology by Fritz Schützego. The author begins by presenting a theoretical context by various researchers to understand the biographical learning units. Then discusses the figure of Halina Semenowicz that in pedagogical circles is known as a precursor of Celestin Freinet techniques. Presents, from the formal, left by Halina Semenowicz daires that wrote for thirty-five years of her life, and also discusses the dairy from 1981, the areas of learning that can be specified during the reading of that journal.

While referring to the notion of lifelong learning the authoress focuses on the pedagogical perspective of determinants and possibilities of biographical learning by individual social actors. In the article, the concept of learning is understood as a transformation of structures of experience, knowledge and acting within the context of people's life stories and their reality. By referring to the method of educational biography, the authoress describes stages and assumptions of her research-educational project. It was realized among part-time students in Zary in one of the newest vocational, non state-owned colleges, founded a few years back in the Polish-German borderland. Furthermore, the authoress characterizes the specificity of the borderland region, as well as the socio-professional situation of the participants - inhabitants of towns and villages of the region - whom she describes as 'non-traditional' students. In the article, the authoress presents the results of their written biographical narratives, focusing primarily on extracting and describing three different ways of giving meanings and purposes to learning found in Zary students' autobiographies.

Reflective, autonomous learning of mature students was the main focus of the research project undertaken by seven European partners (including Poland) over three years (Promotion Reflective and Independent Learning in Higher Education - PRILHE, Socrates Grundtvig project 113869-CP-1-2004-1-UK-GRUNDTVIG-G1. http://www.pcb.ub.es/crea/proyectos/prilhe/index.htm). The aim of this article is to discover what reflections about learning accompany students when they tell their stories. One particular Swedish case from the project is presented to serve this purpose. The way of conducting life history interview is regarded a crucial methodological tool that allows researchers to initiate processes of reflection and self-reflection. The case involves a male mature student who, while narrating his story, is puzzled by a sudden reflection and deepening self-reflection on his way of learning, and by the possible consequences of such learning for his personal, social and working life. The article presents an in-depth analysis of the biographical interview with the student. His discovery that learning is not only an individual and unique course, but a social process in its own right, triggers reflection and a spontaneous or even an illuminating reaction based on biographical learning. In the last part of the article, the concept of biographical learning is extended and linked to identity work as well as to the notion of the self and the others. G. H Mead's theory of the self is used with the support of empirical data. The intention is twofold: to challenge the predominant view in contemporary higher education discourse that learners are unique and individual persons who learn in a specific and distinct way without being affected by others; and to go beyond the view of collective versus individual learning, and advance the idea that learning is a profoundly social process from the very start.
