W niniejszej pracy badaniu poddano niektóre z dominujących sposobów myślenia o outdoor education w Wielkiej Brytanii oraz przedstawiono sugestie, że myślenie takie może być ograniczone i obejmuje kilka kategorii błędów. Owe ograniczenia i błędy są częściowo wynikiem nieprecyzyjnego aparatu pojęciowego, a także zmian w polityce państwa, w kontekście polityczno-społecznym. Innymi słowy, outdoor education, historycznie było nastawione zbyt pragmatycznie i w efekcie doprowadziło to do bałaganu w badaniach oraz rozumieniu outdoor education.

This paper presents the impact of experiential learning on solving complex problems. Analyzed are methods and techniques of experiential learning as an active form of learning. Presented are the results of research in which we examine whether the systematic approach of problem solving differs between the genders, if the perception of experience as a source of knowledge depends on the level of education, and examine a correlation between searching of all possible ways for successful problems solving and perception of experience as a source of knowledge.

The article undertakes the issue of training of specialists in the field of socio-cultural activities for the elderly with the use of cross-generational project method. It describes classes carried out in cooperation between the university and two day care facilities for seniors. There have been presented free time activities conducted by students for seniors: its theoretical frames (competence theory, experiential learning), organizational frames and stages (introduction, conceptualization, activation, evaluation). Also the assessment of the effectiveness of the project method in gaining competences necessary in socio-cultural work with the elderly has been attempted. The students’ feedback indicates the acquirement of: new knowledge of old age, its specificity and the way it conditions the process of facilitation; capability of group cooperation and flexible use of methods adequate to the age of participants; professional self-awareness in the work with the elderly. Also the change in view on aging and the realization that there are values specific for this period of life have been pointed out. Learning from experience in cross-generational relations got the holistic character and may create the favourable conditions for gaining diverse competencies to work with the elderly. The difficulties in running cross-generational projects in frames of university education and ways of overcoming them have been discussed in the article too.

The paper presents the first cohort of the innovative project “European Engineering Team”, which was conducted within the ERASMUS+ program. The innovativeness of the project lies in the cooperation of 4 European universities of technology and its project-based approach. Students participating in the EET project independently defined problem domains related to sustainability. The mobility attributed to regular ERASMUS+ initiatives was redefined. Students and supervisors had to travel frequently for short periods (4 week-long meetings), reflecting the actual needs and demands of a global labor market. Students cooperate virtually and attend classes in their regular courses at home universities between direct meetings. The goal of this project was to verify the effectiveness of the proposed approach to transnational and inter-university initiatives, utilizing blended learning. The goal was to develop student competencies in terms of sustainability, cooperation in transnational and geographically dispersed teams, who worked on multi-disciplinary problems utilizing knowledge from different domains. The approach was effective and most of the student competences improved throughout the project. However, some areas of possible improvement were defined and supervisors are focused on them during the ongoing second cohort of the EET.

Much research supports the everyday therapeutic and deeper socialneurophysiological influence of singing songs alone and in groups (Austin, 2008; Cozolino, 2013; Sacks, 2007). This study looks at what happens when Japanese students teach short English affirmation songlet-routines to others out of the classroom (clandestine folk music therapy). I investigate 155 student-conducted musical case studies from 7 semester-long classes (18 to 29 students per class) over a 4-year period. The assignments, their in-class training, and their results are introduced, with examples directly from their case studies. Each class published their own booklet of case studies (a class publication, available to readers online for research replication and modeling). Results show that most primary participants enjoyed spreading these positive songlets as they became “well-becoming agents of change” in their own social networks. “Well-becoming” emphasizes an agentive action or activity that creates better well-being in others, an action such as the sharing or teaching of a songlet. The qualitative data reveals a number of types of well-becoming such as social and familial bonding, meaning-making, teaching-rushes, and experiencing embodied cognition. The project also stimulated wider network dissemination of these well-becoming possibilities and pedagogical insights.

Autor na wstępie zauważa, że prawnicy zawsze odgrywali istotną rolę państwotwórczą nie tylko poprzez kreowanie porządku prawnego, ale także przywództwo polityczne, stając się „architektami demokracji” zarówno w Polsce, jak i w USA. Szkoły prawnicze na całym świecie podjęły wyzwanie, by kształcić przyszłych liderów, którzy rozumieją otaczający ich świat. Autor podaje przykłady zajęć i inicjatyw wspierających przyszłych liderów: nauka prawa obcego i prawa międzynarodowego, udział w wymianach zagranicznych, a także działalność pro publico bono, podejmowanie inicjatyw społecznych. Zadaniem prawników we współczesnym społeczeństwie jest wspieranie demokracji i przewodzenie inicjatywom społecznym. Zdaniem autora, rolą uczelni jest należyte zapoznanie studentów z teraźniejszymi problemami przez praktyczne, eksperymentalne nauczanie. Przykładem tego jest odbywanie praktyk w instytucjach publicznych. Autor konkluduje też, że współpraca między Uniwersytetem Warszawskim a University of Florida Levin College of Law to doskonały przykład kształcenia przyszłych liderów poprzez praktyczne zajęcia, wymianę studencką i naukę prawa obcego.

This paper examines the International Student Competition on Place Branding and Mediterranean Diet held in Fermo, Italy, in the context of the development of rural areas. This one-week food-related educational programme was organised by the University of Macerata’s Department of Education, Cultural Heritage and Tourism in collaboration with The Piceno Laboratory on the Mediterranean Diet, a local network of public and private stakeholders committed to the promotion of Fermo area as a touristic destination based on traditional gastronomy. The aim of this study was to understand how and to what extent such food-related educational events may contribute to providing students with the knowledge, expertise and soft skills needed for careers in the food tourism sector. Of interest also was how such events may benefit the development of rural areas. The ISC was founded in 2016 and continued in 2017, 2018 and 2019. In order to assess students’ perceptions about the experience, specifically regarding what they felt they had learned about food tourism, and which soft skills they had acquired or honed, 13 students who participated in the 2017 event were interviewed for a qualitative study. Moreover, the authors drew upon information gleaned from interactions with students and teachers, as well as with several important actors of the local food and tourism sector, including tourism and hospitality entrepreneurs and representatives of government agencies, with whom they collaborated in the context of planning, running and evaluating the events. The findings show that the ISC can provide students with a good general understanding of the territory and practical knowledge about place branding and food tourism. In terms of career preparation, the combination of fieldwork activities with traditional lectures and group activities was particularly fruitful in promoting soft skills such as communication, efficient use of social media, teamwork, problem-solving and decision making.

The evolution of theoretical learning concepts brings new stimuli to lifelong learning practice. One of the new theoretical bases appropriate for adult education is an experiential learning theory which analyses and evaluates educational projects and study materials for distance learning as well as e-learning educational programmes from the standpoint of potential learning effectiveness. At the same time, it can be a gnoseological theoretical basis of designing educational programmes for adults, either on a theoretical basis of distance learning, e-learning, or on the basis of their purposeful integration, which is becoming more and more frequent in andragogy. The study gives general tenets of andragogy, presents the main characteristics of experiential learning along with its two major developmental variants – Kolb’s cycle and Jarvis´ revised model of the processes of learning. It defines the basic features of distance learning and e-learning, and formulates general stimuli how to apply experiential learning within these relatively integral educational technologies. In conclusion, it brings about information on practical use of theoretical approaches to teaching pedagogical subjects within educational programmes at universities.

This paper draws attention to the significance of implicit pedagogical knowledge in the educational process of future teaching staff. Implicit pedagogical knowledge is here understood to be the “hidden” knowledge of students of teaching, which originates on the basis of their prior experience, is derived from a student’s implicit theories of learning and teaching, is interlinked with their explicit knowledge – and which influences the behaviour of the student in a pedagogical situation. In the process of creating and developing implicit pedagogical knowledge, the author considers the following to be key elements: self-reflection and the publicising and sharing of pedagogical experience. He indicates that it is absolutely essential that the traditional understanding (such as has been handed down to-date in the literature) be enriched by a new dimension – and especially by the dimension of one’s personality. He offers a newly-coined term “pedagogical condition”, which is understood to describe the ability and flexibility of a student to behave proactively under a variety of pedagogical situations.

Universities are challenged by the growing proportion of older people in the global population. This is forcing academic institutions to reconsider how they should respond to an ageing population with regard to their teaching methodology, research, and community engagement. Intergenerational learning is one of the strategies applied by universities to promote knowledge development by involving younger and older generations in the process so that they can purposefully learn together and learn from each other. Public consultation is an engagement promoting solutions that can offer an opportunity for experiential learning taking place among representatives of the various generational. The article analyzes a case study of public consultation as organized by the University of Łódź as part of the European CONCISE project. The presented case study is an example of how the application of the public consultation method might promote intergenerational learning.

Rosnące proporcje osób starszych w globalnej populacji stanowią wyzwanie dla uniwersytetów. Zmusza to instytucje akademickie do ponownego rozważenia, w jaki sposób powinny reagować na starzenie się społeczeństwa i wprowadzać zmiany w takich obszarach, jak: nauczanie, badania czy współpraca za społeczeństwem. Międzypokoleniowe uczenie się jest jedną ze strategii stosowanych przez uniwersytety w celu promowania rozwoju wiedzy poprzez celowe angażowanie przedstawicieli młodszych i starszych pokoleń, aby mogli uczyć się ze sobą i od siebie. Konsultacje publiczne to rozwiązanie promujące zaangażowanie społeczeństwa, rozwiązanie, które może oferować również możliwość uczenia się przez doświadczenie przedstawicieli różnych pokoleń. W artykule przeanalizowano studium przypadku z konsultacji publicznych zorganizowanych przez Uniwersytet Łódzki w ramach europejskiego projektu CONCISE. Opisany przypadek jest przykładem, w jaki sposób zastosowanie metody konsultacji publicznych może promować międzypokoleniowe uczenie się.

This is not a research report but rather a brief, summary description of an extensive, multi-year and multi-faceted communication research project addressing an issue of considerable importance to communities in the U.S. state of North Carolina, though the issue is common in all other states as well. The project sought to identify strategic communication approaches to encouraging proper disposal of cooking grease among selectively identified population segments. Improper disposal of cooking grease is linked to Sanitary Sewer Overflows, a problem leading to significant public health risks, environmental dangers and mounting repair costs. The case illustrates the merits of incorporating a communication component into public health research grant proposals. What we have learned from this experience is that grant proposals should explore the potential for multi-faceted and collaborative project designs. Limiting proposals to the narrow parameters of the request lacks creative vision that may set your proposal apart. In our case, we defined a problem of sewage overflows as having dimensions of public health, environmental safety and fiscal consequences, then we added the potential for experiential learning, service learning and personal and professional development for our students. Taking this approach amplified the impact of the funding and contributed directly to our winning proposal.

Prezentowany artykuł nie jest raportem naukowym, ale raczej podsumowaniem intensywnego, wieloletniego i wielowarstwowego projektu badawczego dedykowanego problemowi o wielkiej istotności dla populacji mieszkańców Północnej Karoliny, choć sam problem istnieje także i w wielu innych stanach USA. Celem projektu było poszukiwanie skutecznych narzędzi strategicznej komunikacji, dostosowanej do różnych określonych grup społeczeństwa, zachęcającej do właściwego pozbywania się zużytego tłuszczu kuchennego. Niewłaściwa utylizacja olejów smażalniczych jest powiązana z problemami drożności rur kanalizacyjnych, mogącymi prowadzić do zwiększenia ryzyka zdrowia publicznego, zagrożeń środowiska naturalnego oraz rosnących kosztów utrzymania i naprawy kanalizacji. Przypadek ten ilustruje zasady zastosowania właściwych komponentów komunikacji w ramach przygotowywania grantów naukowych w dziedzinie zdrowia publicznego. To, czego nauczyło nas to konkretne doświadczenie, to świadomość, że w składanych wnioskach przy ubieganiu się o grant, ich autorzy powinni podkreślić wielostronność i elementy współpracy w ramach proponowanego projektu. Ograniczanie oferty do wąskich parametrów pozbawia projekt twórczej wizji, co może wpłynąć na jej odrzucenie, W naszym przypadku, określiliśmy problem nadmiaru ścieków w wymiarze jego wpływu na zdrowie publiczne, bezpieczeństwo środowiska oraz jako powodujący konsekwencje finansowe, a następnie dodaliśmy, że przedstawia on ponadto potencjał doświadczalno-poznawczy, uczenia świadczenia usług dla dobra społeczności lokalnej, jak również osobistego i zawodowego rozwoju naszych studentów. Przyjęcie takiego stanowiska istotnie wzmocniło wpływ na pozytywne pozyskanie funduszy i przyczyniło się bezpośrednio do ostatecznego uzyskania grantu na realizację naszego projektu.

The paper presents the analysis of existing theory, assumptions, and models of adult experiential learning. The experiential learning is a learning based on a learning cycle guided by the dual dialectics of action-reflection and experience-abstraction. It defines learning as a process of knowledge creation through experience transformation, so knowledge becomes the result of experience understanding and transformation. Experience understanding is information taking, and experience transformation is information and action based on this information interpreting. The experiential learning is a cycle and requires a learner’s focus, his reflection on the experience, generalizations development, and generalizations verification. In the center of experiential learning models is a learning process, but the subject matter is also important. So educators characterize experiential learning from two aspects. The first group of researchers focuses on the process of learning from experience; the second one focuses on the context of the experiential learning. This learning is designed to engage students in direct experiences tied to real-world problems and situations. In this learning the instructor facilitates and does not direct student progress. Another benefit of experiential learning is a strong motivation to learn, which is provided with students engagement in learning experiences and feedback. The experiential learning makes possible for students to face unknown situations and problems in a real-world context. To make the decision, students need to analyze what they know, what they do not know, and how to learn it. This motivates students to reflect on their existing knowledge and make it deeper through reflection; transfer their prior learning experience to new context; acquire new ideas, principles, and skills; improve communication skills since they help students to become self-directed life-long learners.

New social movements in South Africa could play a prominent role in mobilizing the communities to reflect critically and address the repercussions of the neo-liberal agenda which manifests itself in perpetual exclusion of under-educated adults and provision of poor quality education. Few studies especially from the perspective of the activists leave a potential research area of a very interesting phenomenon of how people learn while struggling for social justice. Therefore this article based on a single multi-site case study on a social movement cohering around literacy issues in Gauteng, South Africa, aims at answering, what forms of learning and education the social movement encompassed, how did the group conscientization occur and what are the individual transformations. Semi-structured interviews and a focus group discussion were held with 13 learnersactivists and 2 adult educators. By applying Mezirow’s individual transformation and Freirean group conscientization models the analysis of primary and secondary data, revealed that the engagement in the social movement challenged and changed learnersactivists’ understanding of educational status within their respective communities. This in turn led to transformative action addressing the problems identified. On the individual level, some learners-activists became more tolerant and willing to cooperate with those of different political ideologies, able to tap into community resources. Finally, the potential of social movements as adult learning environments are outlined.

The author first notes that lawyers have traditionally played an important role in creating public policy, not only by creating the law, but also because of their political leadership. The author describes their role as “architects of democracy”. Law schools around the world have risen to the challenge of educating future leaders who understand the world around them. The author explores examples of activities and initiatives to better prepare future leaders: e.g., learning foreign law and international law, participating in foreign exchanges, as well as pro bono work, undertaking social initiatives. One major task of lawyers in modern society is the promotion of democracy and social leadership. The author claims that law schools need to prepare students for issues in contemporary democracies through practical, “experimental learning”. One useful example is an internship in a public institution. The author concludes that the cooperation between the University of Warsaw and the University of Florida Levin College of Law also provides an excellent example of educating future leaders through “experimental learning”, student exchanges and transnational law courses, so they can see the connection between their future careers and studies.

Przemiany w pedagogice wywołane wprowadzeniem tak zwanych umiejętności XXI wieku wywarły wpływ na nauczanie na poziomie od podstawowego po wyższe. Zgodnie z tym, co pisze Thompson (2014), nauczyciele akademiccy planujący kursy i programy nauczania powinni odpowiednio dostosować podejście metodyczne, aby takie umiejętności skutecznie rozwijać. W niniejszym artykule proponuję, aby do nauczania wiedzy i umiejętności z zakresu psychologii twórczości wykorzystać podejście zwane pedagogiką zaangażowania (por. z kształceniem podmiotowym, Stasiak 2005). Celem tego podejścia jest rozwój umiejętności twórczych oraz umiejętności skutecznego i głębokiego uczenia się poprzez zaangażowanie, rozwijanie motywacji oraz tworzenie. Główna część artykułu poświęcona jest opisowi trzech grup zadań zaprojektowanych na potrzeby kursu Psychologia Twórczości, przy współpracy Dr Heather Snyder. Zadania te obejmują prowadzenie dziennika, zadania związane z twórczym projektem oraz warsztaty twórczego rozwiązywania problemów. W dalszej części artykułu staram się pokazać, że te zadania – odpowiadające założeniom pedagogiki zaangażowania – nie tylko ułatwiają przyswajanie wiedzy i umiejętności akademickich, ale przede wszystkim rozwijają kreatywność na poziomie płynnym i skrystalizowanym.

The wave of changes in teaching approaches due to the introduction of the 21 century skills – including creativity and problem solving – has affected not only K through 12 classrooms, but also colleges and universities. Thompson (2014) suggests that when designing courses and curricula college educators should consider not only the content knowledge, skills and dispositions their students need to learn, but also what capacities ought to be developed and through what type of pedagogies. In this article, I propose that pedagogies of engagement are developed and used to teach content and skills in a college level course on Psychology of Creativity. In the main section of the article, I present three groups of creative assignments developed in collaboration with Dr. Heather Snyder: journal activities, creative project assignments, and creative problem-solving workshops. I argue that these assignments not only affect students’ motivation, engagement, and deep learning, but they also facilitate the development of mini-c and little-c creativity.
