School as a Problem and Challenge for Contemporary and Future Poland

Szkoła jako problem i wyzwanie dla współczesnej i przyszłej Polski

Author(s): Krzysztof Dziurzynski,Ewa Duda / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 2/2019

Keywords: Student; Teacher; PISA; The learning curve; Polish education system; Finnish education system; Singaporean educational system;

The most important in the education process are the pupil and the teacher. It is for the student that the school is created. It is for him that the teacher comes to this school – the second most important person in terms of importance. If he has no idea what he is going to do with his students in class, it will be a waste of time. The questions arise: what is the teacher like, what is the student like in the modern Polish school? Knowledge in school can be passed on to pupils or built together with them. You can limit yourself to facts and theories and use them to solve problems. You can educate in many ways. You can tell students to do something while standing in front of them, and you can (standing next to them and cheering them on) accompany them from idea to effect. You can make them remember what they were doing in school long after they left it. What is the state of the Polish school we learn from observations, a number of national studies and international comparisons.

Woman´s Role and her Function in Synoptic Tradition

Úloha ženy a jej poslanie v synoptickej tradícii

Author(s): Nikol Volková / Language(s): Slovak / Issue: 3/2019

Keywords: Woman; Gospel; Tradition; Church; Old and New Testament;

Synoptic, John´s and Paul´s tradition shows the New Testament´s picture of a woman. The Old and New Testament also show a view on women, who had significant function and influence on shaping the history related to a better and more dignified status of a woman in society. The truth is that women play an important role in every gospel. Jesus chose women to be sacrificed, to engage in helping others, pray and educate people in faith and lead others to him by example. Such women left and will leave an important mark in the Catholic Church. The New Testament is a “liberation” for a woman and that by Jesus´ radical approach, which also brought a new view on a woman and her dignity.

National and Political Stereotypes in the Editorial Work of Florián Tománek

Národné a politické stereotypy v redaktorskej práci Floriána Tománka

Author(s): Peter Olexák / Language(s): Slovak / Issue: 3/2019

Keywords: Florián Tománek; National Stereotypes; Slovak People‘s Party;

There are at least two reasons why to examine more closely national and political stereotypes that were used by the Catholic priest Florián Tománek in the battle of national emancipation before the Great War. On the one hand, these stereotypes show his weltanschauung and thus reveal the social-psychological and anthropological trait of character of this very representative of Political Catholicism. On the other hand, these stereotypes mirror the social-political context and the mobilizing function of stereotypical concepts in the national battle in Slovakia at the beginning of the last century. In this paper we focus on the utilitarian function of stereotypes in the national-emancipatory process of the Slovaks in a time which coincides with Tománek’s active time at the press office of the Slovenská ľudová strana (Slovak People‘s Party).

The Paradoxical Relationship between Myth and Science

Paradoxný vzťah mýtu a vedy

Author(s): Štefan Šrobár / Language(s): Slovak / Issue: 1/2017

Keywords: Science; Myth; Relation;

A myth is a set of symbolic images related by their meaning and gathered in the subconscious minds of generations, where certain aspects of human existence find their specific expression. Since certain time (end of the 18th century) the European civilisation has been generally “scientific” and anti-mythical. This basic paradox – i.e. the disagreement between the science enabling people in western civilisation to live rich life and the need to have complete and ready explanation of the world at the disposal the science may never offer is the basis of modern myths creation. Even modernism had its myths (metanarrations). Postmodernism offers its own myths.

Issues of Education in a Christian-oriented Environment

Problematika výchovy a vzdelávania v kresťansky orientovanom prostredí

Author(s): Jozef Leščinský / Language(s): Slovak / Issue: 4A/2017

Keywords: Education; Christian-oriented environment;

Into the system of general school education also belongs extracting a large-scale organic and control device the power and influence of which, said in Orwell’s tongue, will and has to expand so long that it will cover the whole area of culture and include all forms of educational institutions, from kindergarten up to universities (in this sense the school system already lives in the frequently mentioned phenomenon of globalisation with all of its positives and negatives). Modern development to the general education thus forces the state to become a competitor and alternative to Church, which is as well as the state a universal institution and which is interested in human intellect as well as in formation of his character by faith. Thus indirectly it leads to tension between these institutions unknown in Middle Ages but fully present in modern times. The article wants to be a reaction to this situation and wants to point out to other options and directions of Christian education at present times.

For several years, the literature on plurilingualism (bilingualism) has been interested in code-switching in the school context. At the intermediate (activities) or micro level (interactions), this is often referred to as translanguaging (in the English speaking literature). What is the pedagogical use of languages in schools: academic language (L1), learning foreign languages (L2 or L3) or students’ home languages? In this article, I present literature-based definitions, describe the translanguaging of the teacher and students, and finally present a few classroom-based practices. The article concludes with reflections on translanguaging for future teaching practices.

Complainers Psychology

Psychológia sťažovateľov

Author(s): Eliška Knošková,Pavol Tománek,Jaroslava DRGOVÁ,Monika KNOŠKOVÁ / Language(s): Slovak / Issue: 2/2021

Keywords: Court; Complaint; The applicant; Complaints management; Psychology of the applicant;

The article deals with the personal handling of complaints by participants in court proceedings (in rare cases also those citizens who do not have such a legal status as the public). The aim is to define, analyze and describe the personal characteristics of the complainants, to specify what inspires, motivates and leads them before, during and after court proceedings, in addition to a written complaint, to communicate the complaint in person directly in interaction with the court manager, respectively. court staff by this atypical procedure. The management of complaints and the case law of complaints are based in particular on the provisions of § 62 et seq. Act no. 757/2004 Coll. on courts as amended (exceptionally also from Act No. 9/2010 Coll. on complaints as amended). On the one hand, it is a description of the basic characteristics of the applicants' mental state, communication, behavior and conduct, and on the other hand, it is a managerial activity of a court employee. The article clarifies the peculiarity of the above-mentioned form of the used method of settling the parties to the dispute before the courts, but outside the court proceedings finding that this activity for the complainants is absent from the previous state or private social, health and legal counseling service. These areas to some extent, ev. the courts of the Slovak Republic are more or less sanitizing more or less by personally accepting and equipping the complainants, about which the public is usually unaware, but the professional public understands this activity as a protopype (basis) of family court formation or a return or a return to classical counseling at the beginning of the 21st century.

Problems of the Evaluation of Andrej Cvincek’s Personality in the Slovak Historiography

Problémy hodnotenia osobnosti Andreja Cvinčeka v slovenskej historiografii

Author(s): Patrik Griger / Language(s): Slovak / Issue: 4/2021

Keywords: Andrej Cvinček; Historiography; Political catholicism; First half of the 20th century; Czechoslovak People's Party; Democratic Party;

In this article, we try to evaluate the views of the Catholic priest and the politician Andrej Cvincek in the writings of the Slovak historical science, which captures his activities in several processes and events of the Slovak History. However, it is not just about mapping the occurrence of this personality in the professional literature. The main objective of this study is to encourage the development of research into Cvincek's life story, by referring to the problems associated with his position in the Slovak historiography, as an important representative of Slovak political catholicism in the first half of the 20th century. In this work, we chronologically analyze his historiographical evaluation in several historical periods, in which he left his mark in the story of history. We also follow Cvincek's personality based on assessing his activities in political parties, in the Czechoslovak People's Party in the interwar period, in the Democratic Party in the period after World War II, similarly against the background of evaluation of his participation and influence in various important historical events, such as The April agreement, in which he participated as a politically active person. We can evaluate that the state of research of this personality has several shortcomings in Slovak historiography. Knowledge of his activities is very variable in different periods, especially depending on his involvement in political life. Another problem is that the deeper Cvincek biography is basically unexplored in the Slovak historical science. Only the events of which Cvincek was a part are examined. His research in religious and ecclesiastical history is also weaker, where as a Catholic priest and a Nitra canon, he would deserve more attention from Slovak church historians.

Eden – the Image of Harmony Between the Creator and the Creation

Raj – obraz harmónie medzi Stvoriteľom a stvorením

Author(s): Štefan Šrobár / Language(s): Slovak / Issue: 1/2022

Keywords: Eden; Closeness to the Creator; Intimate communion with God; Sin;

Eden firstly referred to prehistoric times but later its meaning was also extended to reflections on glory and happy times of that era. Eden, which is still hidden today, will reveal its full glory at the end of the world. In the older Yahwistic tradition, there is a very clear description of Eden. The beauty and fertility of the Eden is the result of the coactivity of human endeavor with God's activity of creation. By committing the original sin, man lost his paradise, i.e. connection with God. The sin of the first people was not that they wanted to be like God, that is, to be similar to God, but that people wanted to be like God immediately, without following him, without being obedient to him.
