Visualization of natural processes – one of the skills of animator of nature culture Nodzyńska, Małgorzata; Cieśla, Paweł Image and text as co-existing and interdependent sources of information are linked from the Middle Ages. Today, infographics appear as another tool to combine text and images. The paper presents students’ works prepared in frames of the classes “Visualization of natural processes and phenomena” realized as a part of the project “Animation of nature culture (Animacja Kultury Przyrodniczej)”.

New course on curricula of natural sciences – popularization of scientific knowledge as a tool to link science and public – good practice in higher education Rożej-Pabijan, Elżbieta The popularization of science is one of the most important skills that should be formed in higher education in natural sciences. In Poland only humanistic studies in the field of journalism provide preparation in transforming knowledge and presenting it to laic audience. Curricula of biological or environmental protection studies offer no course related to science popularization. This gap is partly covered by educational offer of pedagogical universities; however, they prepare future teachers to work in formal education with recipients within a certain age range. But there is still a gap in educational offer of higher education in natural sciences. Graduates often have biological knowledge but do not have the key skills needed in the labor market – concerning self-presentation, mediation and attractive presentation of scientific knowledge. Here is an example of two courses carried out as the part of the scientific project “Animation of scientific and science culture”. The project was performed in academic year 2014–2015 at the Pedagogical University of Cracow. The course was dedicated to popularization of scientific knowledge. The article discusses the substantive scope of the course and methods used to work with students.

Scientific theatre as a form of popularizing knowledge of natural sciences Nodzyńska, Małgorzata; Cieśla, Paweł The article shows how the role of the scientist as a popularizer of science changed over the centuries. On this basis the role of the classes with students on educating their competences of animator of natural culture is shown. The classess “scientific theatre” and “ICT and new forms of social communication” were realised as a part of the project “Animation of nature culture (Animacja kultury przyrodniczej)”.

Nasze „żaby zielone” Zyśk, Bartłomiej; Walosik, Alicja; Guzik, Marek „Żaby zielone” są kolejną dużą grupą żab występujących w Polsce. Są najpospolitszymi płazami, występującymi przez cały okres życia aktywnego w wielu zbiornikach wodnych. Należą do najczęściej obserwowanych i słyszanych płazów, ponieważ są bardzo aktywne w słoneczne dni wiosny i lata. Ubarwieniem i biologią bardzo się różnią od „żab brunatnych”. Ciekawostką dotyczącą ich biologii i systematyki jest to, że jedna z nich – żaba wodna – stanowi naturalną hybrydę dwóch pozostałych gatunków – żaby śmieszki i żaby jeziorkowej. Z tego powodu oznaczanie tych żab nastręcza wielu trudności. W artykule przedstawiono podstawowe różnice między obiema grupami żab, podano opis i typowe cechy charakterystyczne poszczególnych gatunków „żab zielonych”, a także opisano ich biologię.; “Green frogs” are yet another group of frogs present in Poland. They are the most common amphibians that can be found throughout their entire active life in many bodies of water. They are known to be the most commonly observed and heard amphibians due to their heightened activeness in the sunny days of spring and summer. They differ immensely in color and biology from the “brown frogs”. An interesting feature of their biology and systematics is that one of them – the water frog, is a natural hybrid of two remaining species – the marsh frog and the pool frog. Because of this, marking these frogs causes great difficulties. This article displays basic differences between these two groups of frogs. A description and typical distinguishing features of the “green frog” species have been given, along with their biology.
