In one of his latest articles, Fortus (2014), points out that “when one considers the centrality of affect to teaching and learning and the broad range of topics that are related to affect, it is concerning that it has received relatively so little attention” (Fortus 2014, p. 821). In order to support his position, he provides an overview of the research on affect in science education that has been published in several journals (JRST, SciEd, and IJSE) between 2001 and 2011. The author also hypothesizes why affect has been under-attended to by the science education research community so far. And the conclusion he arrives at is that affect remains in the shadow of researchers’ attention partly due to the existing “international trend towards standardization of schooling and high-stakes testing” (p. 822). The main purpose of this article is to emphasize that affect does play an important role also in learning mathematics and for this reason it should be considered as one of the core dimensions of mathematics education. The first part of this article provides examples of two phenomena: math anxiety and the underachievement syndrome in learning mathematics, where affective determinants are unquestionable. Subsequently, we shift the focus from these particular issues to the general description of what affect is, what meaningful concepts it contributes in the field of research on mathematics education, and how the research community can benefit from the approach it promotes. Finally, we present some new directions for researchers and teachers that may result in an increase of the quality and efficiency of both teaching and learning mathematics.

Modern man is entangled in a thicket of information coming from everywhere. The transformations of surrounding reality force mental compatibility with common civilization trends. The only chance for constructive break-up of the so-called mainstream is to preserve the intellectual autonomy. In the face of contemporary socio-cultural changes there is a need to have a special care for the formation of a mature personality, creating the conditions which stimulate the holistic development and building a society based on knowledge. The place where this idea should be implemented is – next to the family – school. It’s task is to see and meet the educational needs of today’s youth. This article presents the transgressive concept of a man and theory of positive disintegration, in which the author sees valuable inspiration for pedagogy and didactics. The text shows advantages of both of these concepts and the possibility of their use in order to increase the effectiveness of education. As an example of implementation of transgressive teaching and positive disintegration in education, the author gives a diagnosis and therapy of underachievement syndrome.

Współczesny człowiek uwikłany jest w gąszcz napływających zewsząd informacji. Przeobrażenia, jakim ulega otaczająca nas rzeczywistość, wymuszają na jednostce mentalną kompatybilność z powszechnymi trendami cywilizacyjnymi. Jedyną szansą na konstruktywne wyłamanie się z mainstreamu jest zachowanie autonomii intelektualnej. W obliczu współczesnych przemian socjokulturowych istnieje potrzeba wykazania szczególnej troski o kształtowanie dojrzałej osobowości jednostki, stworzenie jej warunków stymulujących ogólny rozwój oraz budowania społeczeństwa opartego na wiedzy. Miejscem, w którym ta idea powinna zostać zrealizowana, jest – obok rodziny – szkoła. Jej zadaniem jest dostrzeżenie i zaspokojenie współczesnych potrzeb edukacyjnych dojrzewającego człowieka. W niniejszym artykule przedstawiono koncepcję transgresyjną człowieka i teorię dezintegracji pozytywnej K. Dąbrowskiego, w których autorka dostrzega cenne inspiracje dla pedagogiki i dydaktyki. W tekście ukazano walory obu wspomnianych koncepcji i możliwości wykorzystania ich w celu podniesienia efektywności kształcenia. Jako przykład realizacji transgresji i pozytywnej dezintegracji autorka podaje diagnozę i terapię Syndromu Nieadekwatnych Osiągnięć Szkolnych.
