Summary/Abstract: As the notion of mediation remains relatively new within the field of glottodidactics, the article focuses on popularising knowledge about it. It presents the findings of a content analysis of Języki Obce w Szkole issues published between 2001 and 2025, with particular attention to the presence and nature of mediation-related topics in the language classroom. The study examined 122 issues of the journal and identified 31 articles that discussed mediation in theoretical and/or practical terms. The results indicate a gradual increase in interest in mediation, particularly following the publication of the CEFR Companion Volume. In the earlier years, the articles tended to conceptualise mediation chiefly in terms of intralingual or interlingual processing. However, between 2019 and 2025, the publications increasingly addressed the intercultural, social and relational dimensions of mediation and included a greater number of proposals for practical classroom activities. The analysis suggests that the journal fulfils an important informational function, although certain aspects of mediation still require further dissemination.
