teachers Abstract: The purpose of this article is to analyze the experience of early school education teachers in implementing intercultural education at school. We are in-terested here in a special group, the teachers who in previous research declared acceptance of creative life orientation and demonstrated creative pedagogical activities in their daily work at school. The article briefly presents the basic assumptions of the author’s concept of creative life orientations. The importance of the holistic concept of intercultural education in the modern world has been highlighted. Methodological assumptions of qualitative research and its results were described. Empirical material from field research was presented in the form of qualitative description as well as a matrix and network, in accordance with the concept of analysis of Miles and Huberman data. The open attitude of the surveyed teachers towards cultural diversity, undertaking various activities for the integration and building of the community were pointed out. The inspiring function of the described experiences of the studied teachers was emphasized, the involvement of not only students but also parents, which serves the implementation of the idea of educational partnership, was considered par-ticularly valuable.

play Abstract: In the 18 th century, a number of puppet figures began to gain popular-ity. They appeared on the traveling scenes of theatre troupes almost throughout Europe. They were comic figures of the character of popular heroes, presented in the streets, squares and markets and speaking to audience in their own language. One part of them came from the comedy dell’arte (Pulcinella, Poliszynel, Guignol, Don Cristobal, and Pietruszka). The theatrical roots of the heroes who appeared in German states (Hanswurst, Kasperle, Kašparek, Gašparko) reached the Elizabethan theatre and are associated with the presence of wandering theatre of English actors. They combined Elizabethan theatre with traditional figure of a folk jester. Because for Poland it is a time of slow loss of independence for the benefit of neighboring countries, the theatre of the popular hero was not created. Instead, the form of szopka (a nativity play) was developing. Comparison of the functions and significance of these theatrical phenomena is the subject of this study. It is also an attempt to draw the attention of educators to the educational values of the Polish nativity play.

It is emphasized that partner collaboration should enhance the unifying of the influences which contribute to shaping learners’ indispensable intercultural competences. Due to this, more sig-nificance is attributed to the nature of teachers and parents’ engagement in the implementation of the assumptions concerning multi – and intercultural education.

Good and successful life of each individual in contemporary society depends greatly on the level of completed education. Many research studies show that deficit of adequate education is one of the main factors of social and above all economic exclusion of the Roma population. Thus, in the long-term perspective, the educational system is the most important instrument that mitigates the negative impact of the marginalization of the Roma people and facilitates elevation of their social status. Systematic measures supporting the education of Roma children and their success in the school go hand in hand with the expectations arising from the great efforts and considerable financial means invested towards this objective. In this study, however, we do not concentrate on defining the causes of the Roma students’ academic failure. On the contrary, we view the issue from the opposite viewpoint, namely, from the perspective of the factors that have a positive influence on their educational trajectory. Using the method of narrative interviews with university-educated Roma students, we tried to identify the important moments and specifics that contributed to the formation of their successful educational careers leading to university graduation. Thus, the resulting findings help us understand the problem issues from a positive angle and emphasize the role of individual determinants for assurance of Roma students’ success, as well as for serving as an example to Roma intelligence in general.

meeting Abstract : In the last couple of decades the term ‘dialogue’ as a communication category has been used increasingly more often, to the extent of being overused. As migration processes intensify and multiculturalism becomes more widespread, the belief in the importance and indispensability of dialogue gains ground. The popular use of dialogue causes it to lose its notional preciseness. Employed by ev-eryone, everywhere and for every occasion, dialogue increasingly becomes a syn-onym for ordinary conversation or even for a dispute. I have therefore considered it proper to seek, within the realm of the philosophy of encounter, the framework for the structure of dialogue and the conditions that would be to need to be fulfilled for, as Martin Buber intended it, the dialogue to dialogue to be authentic. The article attempts to show how important an ethical attitude, understood as the foundation of interpersonal agreement, is in the dialogical contact with the Other. Dialogue is presented as a difficult and demanding framework which is, at the same time, possible and indeed

repatriates Abstract: The aim of the article is to show support in the situation of social change on the example of supporting children of repatriates in school adaptation. It presents the results of surveys and in-depth interviews conducted among the children of repatriates, their teachers and parents. For interpreting the research results, Stanisław Kawula’s concept of social support is used. In the opinion of the respondents, additional classes organized at the beginning of education at the Polish school have a very positive effect on the school adaptation of repatriates children. Unfortunately, the low awareness of teachers about working with a culturally different student and teaching Polish as a foreign language significantly reduces the effectiveness of these activities. Information support is also insufficient. Although the school as an institution introducing subsequent generations to the world of culture should react to the ongoing social changes, the conducted research indicates insufficient preparation of teachers to work with students with migration experience. This is the result of negligence both at the stage of higher education and professional development, as well as informing teachers about the situation of the student who reaches the given institution. In the school envi-ronments covered by the research, the teachers showed a great commitment to support the children of repatriates in school adaptation, but their good will was insufficient to compensate for the lack of professionalism, efficient communication or even knowledge of educational

paths Abstract: Over the last decades, a few subdisciplines of some scientific disciplines have come into being which mostly explore borderlands – e.g. sociology, anthropology, and pedagogy. They could originate only when the specialists in this field had finished their work on the definition of borderland, in which the starting point should be the broad philosophical approach to this problem. Here, the borderland appears as a keyword for modern humanities, referring to many paradigms of contemporary science – it is the meeting of “me” (an individual, group, culture) with the Other, an inevitable encounter which determines the sense of life. The borderland is a meeting of two different paradigms of subjects and every discourse pertains to the relationship Me – You (the Other). The presented study is focused on the shaping of the knowledge concerning the borderland in the contact site between two approaches: of intercultural education as a pedagogical subdiscipline and of anthropology of borderland as a subdiscipline of cultural anthropology. These research orientations seem to be far away from each other – however, in a particular context, the similarities become quite clear. This context is the place where science is practiced – in the unit of the University of Silesia which is located in Cieszyn, in the heart of the Polish-Czech and, therefore, of the Czech-Polish borderland. Education and ethnology as university courses have elaborated – in the process of collaboration and mutual inspiration – original knowledge and interesting research orientations which stem from it. Both disciplines have origi-nated from the same source, their genesis and developmental paths are not only similar but also related.
