The author's purpose is to show the perspective of European school in conditions of cultural differentiation, intensifying also under influence of globalization and European integration. As a result of these processes, both in the school surroundings and in its community, the Others and Foreigns are better and better perceptible. The author presumes, that the situation, in which their subjective differentness makes controversy, leads to many problems. It makes difficult or even impossible to realize some school functions. According to this, individuals, who are engaged in education knowingly, or only are related to it because of being in the school environment, should be trained in special competence - intercultural competence. Internal cultural differentiation of school and its environment demands preparation of students, school staff, parents and others to apply the attitude based on intercultural competence in all fields of reality. Important are not only matters connected with the language, national or ethnic identity. Important is the universal competence, tha way of treatment of Others\Foreigns, and also coping with own differentness. The author gives examples of institutional enterprises, which help in shaping intercultural competence. According to him, in reference to European integration and problems of cultural differentiation of school systems, the most remarkable are international and local initiatives, receiving support from governments. They could be implemented after the necessary changes of educational system.

This article introduces environmental education as a specific cultural work for exploring and creating meanings, values and practices related to environmentalism. Comparing the national curriculum's discourse of environmental education with the narratives of environmental education practitioners, the study examines ways in which ecological concepts as well as moral issues emerging from the ethics of care for the environment get translated into everyday language and activities. Particular attention is paid to conceptions of environmental knowledge and activities mediating an active involvement of pupils. Drawing on interviews with two groups of practitioners, the paper argues that the practice of environmental education is manifold and varies according to different settings and the interests of teachers and environmental activists. Finally, the author argues for the promotion of pedagogies of place which can advance practice in environmental education and provide a common, and at the same time sufficiently broad, framework for the field.

The paper deals with corporeality in the school environment from a historical perspective. The body has tended to appear and disappear in the discourse and scientific disciplines and has permeated education. This permeation can be viewed traditionally within Merleau-Ponty’s phenomenological theory of the “lived body” but also in school discipline. Discipline is typically used to organise the school and is unquestionably associated with the body and corporeality. In this article, we therefore rely on Foucault’s theories. Docile bodies are typically found in schools and classrooms and are shaped by the institution so that they are easy to manage and control. In part, we demonstrate this using handwriting in schools as an example

The contribution presents outcomes of a research carried out among young, beginning teachers. The aim was to ascertain the respondents’ attitude towards museums and museum education, but also their will to cooperate and the requests they make as a presupposition of deeper cooperation. Based on the results of the research, the concept of a “friendly museum” can be formulated, along with a notion of an ideal museum, which complies with the repeated requests of both teachers to-be and experienced teachers.

The author shows educating a man as a work of love. What he means is formation of the humanity by God who loves each man, and the cooperation of teachers and pedagogues in this work. He bases his argument on analysis of Pope John Paul II and Benedict XVI's thought, and he clearly indicates education as a special form of evangelization, in which the teacher and the pedagogue's role is to bring the pupil to Christ and to emerge him in His love, which requires a living faith on the part of the educator. Being faithful he looks at the pupil with Christ's eyes and notices a lot more than can be seen on the outside. The article consists of four parts. In the first one the author presents basic elements of the Christian message on education. In the second part he points to the harmful mechanisms of the Polish schooling system. In the third part he develops the basic elements of his interpretation of education understood as forming humanity by God's love and he defines man's contribution to this work. The whole is concluded by suggestions for a modern educator.

The research shows that school climate has an important effect on the prevalence of peer bullying. Therefore, the aims of our study were to determine: 1) if there are differences in the perceptions of bullying-related school climate by victims, bullies, non-victims and non-bullies, and 2) which sociodemographic and school climate factors predict the roles of chronic victims and bullies. The results suggest that there are more victims in younger students and more bullies among boys. We also found significant differences in perceptions of school climate by victims and bullies and were able to predict a small/moderate amount of variance in the roles of chronic victims/bullies by sociodemographic and school climate variables. Implications of the study findings are also discussed.

The paper reports on the development of an instrument enabling researchers to examine organizational culture at schools. The study is related to a comprehensive educational research project investigating the efficiency of schools as organizations with unique characteristics. The large-scale project is based on the analysis of organizational culture and, more specifically, organizations' attitude towards change. The paper first presents the results of a preliminary phase consisting of a questionnaire study on organizational culture at schools. Then these results are compared with the data obtained through a questionnaire based on Quinn's Competing Values Framework. Finally, an attempt is made to draw a comparison between the 'value map' revealed by the questionnaire examining organizational culture and the basic bipolar model of schools.

The article describes the results of the study of the awareness and economic maturity conducted in the group of 432 participants of educational programs directed to pupils from the highest grades of primary school and initial grades of gymnasium. The research enabled to classify particular categories of economic concepts regarding the level of learners' familiarity with them and the range of their acquisition. It allowed as well to diagnose the students' background knowledge and to point to the areas of ignorance, which are particularly important as they may become in future the source of myths, arising in the awareness of many people, concerning economic issues and may also lead to stereotypical perception of economic phenomena. Therefore, they impede the understanding of real economic mechanisms and processes as well as increase the susceptibility for populist solutions of every kind.

This article describes the city school and education in Bardejov in the middle ages. The development of school and education in Bardejov was strongly connected to the local church. Despite the city’s governance under the school, the education remained religious and teachers associated with ecclesiastical authorities. As the author points out, relation between schoolmaster and parish priest was not always respectable. The article explores educational level, social background and geographical origin of the individual lectors. It focuses on the duties of students, especially within the liturgical life of the parish church. The role of the city and its contribution to the school is described on payments from the town account books.

The aim of the study was to explore direct and indirect pathways from cognitive factors (academic and social self-perception) to adolescent well-being through school belonging. The direct and indirect effects of cognitive factors were investigated on both concurrent and prospective well-being indicators. The first data collection was held in the beginning of the school year, the study sample consisted of 139 freshmen of three high schools in Nitra (53 boys, 86 girls, Mage = 15.63, SD = 1.15). The second data collection was held six months later from 109 respondents (40 boys, 69 girls, Mage = 15.16). Self-report questionnaires were utilized. Results showed that school belonging mediated the association between social and academic competence and students’ concurrent optimism, connectedness and happiness. School belonging also mediated the relationship of social competence to prospective optimism, connectedness and happiness. Findings suggest that a developed sense of connection to school in the transition period may promote overall well-being in adolescents.

In times of crisis of values it is necessary to speak about upbringing in school and a role that teachers play in this matter. The article focuses on a social and a religious mission of teachers against a background of the Year of Cyprian Norwid. Teaching is very difficult as it requires from a teacher continuous self-study, self-denial and sometimes even heroic courage to proclaim the truth. All of this, however, should not hide the fact that teaching is a satisfying job which brings lots of joy, perhaps even more than other professions. The aim of the article is to show a diverse mission of a teacher by referring to social teaching of the Church against a background of Norwid’s thought.

This article presents an analysis of the links between teacher practice and forced displacement based on a theoretical conceptualization and the narratives of the main actors: teachers and students of the first cycle of two schools in the city of Bogota. We analyse the contexts of the schools and the dynamics of the school scenarios. The research enabled us to identify the territories’ importance in the construction of identities and people’s life histories; to reaffirm the school as a political and social ground; the teacher ́s role in mediating and encouraging new experiences and life projects, and finally the importance to generate qualification processes with and for the teachers who enhance their practices with forced displaced children in a “welcoming” community.

The aim of the article is an attempt of an insight into the culture of a French school and factors that shape it. In this background, a narrower issue of an oppressive effect of school norms that concern pupils’ appearance is discussed. The case of French Muslim girls is an interesting departure point for the critical analysis of oppressive actions of Polish teachers. The article presents the background of social tensions caused by ‘the Islamic shawl’ and the question of changing the media image of French Muslims. The crucial conclusion of the presented analyses are different social competences (resistance against power), which are formed in subjects that undergo oppressive school norms in Poland and France.

This paper presents empirical findings concerning the motivational structure of 415 elementary school students. The motivational structure, as conceived in the Integrative Model of Academic Motivation (Juriševič, 2006), comprises three constructs: motivational components, motivational orientations, and motivational patterns. For the purpose of the study, 415 students from Slovenian elementary schools answered the Questionnaire on Academic Motivation. On the basis of multivariate analysis, 21 academic motivation components were identified, which were integrated into three latent motivation orientations: helplessness and avoidance, external motivational orientation, and intrinsic motivational orientation. In terms of the combinations of their academic motivational orientations, the students were further classified into specific groups representing homogeneous motivational patterns to learn in school. The results justify the suitability of the research model and point to the possibilities of further development. They show that only when taking into account the concrete learning and wider social context in the interaction with students’ individual characteristics can we correctly establish what kind of specific combinations of latent motivational orientations combine into motivational patterns with a homogeneous structure for each individual student. In turn, these motivational patterns influence learning through students’ learning behaviour and thus indirectly contribute to their academic achievements.
