The teacher’s role is vital, both in respect to achieving academic goals, and with regard to the regulation of emotional and social processes. Positive perceptions of teacher support can endorse psychological wellness, and help maintain students’ academic interests, higher academic achievement and more positive peer relationships. The teacher who shows understanding, empathy and consistency in their behavior helps students start forming an identity, which will assist them in coping with stress and anxiety directly connected with the foreign language learning process (language anxiety). The main aim of this research is to investigate the relationship between teacher support and language anxiety levels. It is speculated that teacher support functions as a buffer from the effects of negative emotions, such as language anxiety experienced in the foreign language learning process. The participants of the study were 621 secondary grammar school students whose responses to a questionnaire were the main data source. The results of the study demonstrate that students with higher levels of teacher support experience lower language anxiety levels in comparison to their peers with lower levels of teacher support. Students who have a feeling that they can count on the instructor’s help, advice, assistance, or backing manage the learning process more successfully. They evaluate their language abilities highly and receive better final grades. Nevertheless, gender and residential location do not moderate teacher support and language anxiety due to the specificity of the sample consisting of novice secondary grammar school students.

Zagrożenie stereotypem to zjawisko, które pojawia się w czasie testowania pewnych zdolności, wskutek aktywizacji negatywnego stereotypu mówiącego o niskich zdolnościach własnej grupy. Jego konsekwencją jest pogorszenie wykonywania zadań wymagających tych zdolności. W przedstawionym badaniu mierzono za pomocą skali psychologicznej poczucie zagrożenia stereotypem u uczennic szkół podstawowych i gimnazjów oraz sprawdzano jego związek z ocenami szkolnymi z matematyki. Ponadto, korzystając z rozważań teoretycznych o podobieństwie stereotypizacji i wyuczonej bezradności, testowano mediacyjną i moderacyjną rolę bezradności intelektualnej z matematyki. Uzyskane wyniki sugerują, że bezradność intelektualna mediuje relację między poczuciem zagrożenia stereotypem na lekcjach matematyki a ocenami szkolnymi z tego przedmiotu.

Stereotype threat is a situational phenomenon that arises during ability testing, when a negative stereotype about in-group ability is activated. This leads to stereotypical content assimilation and impairs task performance. The present study investigated the relation of stereotype threat experienced during mathematics lessons and mathematics achievement, as measured by school grades. Further, review of the literature about similarities between discrimination and learned helplessness indicated that learned helplessness acted as an important mediator between stereotype threat and school achievement. The results confirmed that learned helplessness mediated the relation between stereotype threat experience and mathematical achievement.

The title of this paper is to draw attention to the deteriorating and some say despicable conditions in the academic world. The paper utilizes the critical research method which is an emerging research paradigm in educational research. It also attempts to encompass a somewhat light-hearted word-fun approach to make a very serious problem more palatable reading. Its aim is to promote change. The work here focuses on illuminating the legacy conditions in the infancy of public education and following the mutations leading to today’s conditions of companies, organizations and individuals or pigs at the trough who has forsaken learning for earnings and profits. Revealed in the research are such enlightening findings as in the National Center for Education’s 120 Years of American Education: A Statistical Portrait. The 107-page report. covers education characteristics of the population, enrollment rates, educational attainment, illiteracy, income, elementary and secondary education, statistical trends, enrollment, school attendance, pupil/teacher ratios, student assessment (which discusses test results trends), high school graduates, public elementary and secondary school, revenues, expenditures, higher education, enrollment, institutions and professional staff, degrees conferred, master’s degrees, doctor’s degrees, first-professional degrees, revenues for higher education, expenditures, endowments and physical plants. What the report does not mention not even once in all its 107 pages, 21 sets of figures and 37 tables is the word learning. Also demonstrated is the current level of the very poor results of products of the U.S. educational system by discussing the historical performances of U.S. students on international achievement tests. The research reveals both the intended and unintended consequences of grade inflation, student cheating, professor/teacher good grades for better class review problems and the false sense of learning. The purpose of this research is to (a) to identify trends and factors negatively impacting student learning; (b) inform to help solicit change and mitigate future risk factors and (c) challenge the reader to become part of the solution. These findings and the continuation of research activity will be used to leverage additional interventional support specifically for implementation to reverse the trend of profitability at the expense of student learning.

Najważniejszym czynnikiem warunkującym osiągnięcia szkolne jest status ekonomiczno-społeczny rodziny, z której pochodzi uczeń. Zostało to wielokrotnie potwierdzone badaniami polskimi i międzynarodowymi, aczkolwiek status społeczno-ekonomiczny był określany za pomocą różnych wyznaczników. Zgodnie z teorią kapitału kulturowego P. Bordieu to rodzina wyposaża dziecko w składające się nań różnorodne kompetencje językowe i kulturowe, które w procesie edukacji na różnych szczeblach mogą być rozwijane. O efektach nauki (w postaci ocen i wyników egzaminów) decydują jednak nie tylko elementy rodzinno-środowiskowe, ale także sama organizacja szkoły. Ważną rolę odgrywa też osoba nauczyciela, jego kompetencje metodyczne i merytoryczne, a także umiejętność rozpoznania potencjału ucznia i jego cech warunkujących osiągane wyniki.

The most important factor conditioning school achievements is the economic and social status of the student’s family of origin. This has been confirmed many times by Polish and international studies, although the socio-economic status was described by various determinants. According to the theory of cultural capital P. Bordieu, the family is that which equips the child with various language and cultural competences that can be developed in the education process at various levels. However, the learning outcomes (in the form of grades and results of exams) are determined not only by family and environmental elements, but also by the organization of the school itself. An important role is also played by the teacher’s person, his methodological and substantive competences, as well as the ability to recognize the student’s potential and his characteristics conditioning the results achieved.
