dc.description.abstract | The article Model kompetentnego gimnazjalisty według założeń reformy – a stan rzeczywisty
(The model of a competent student of lower secondary school according to the reform
assumptions and reality) aims at showing the condition of research on the development of
competencies of lower secondary school students and expectations towards Polish language
teachers and students which are associated with the phenomenon.
The new core curriculum (2009) assumes students’ important achievements in reception of
culture-based texts, inter alia, the ability to find implicit meanings, evaluation of the features
of newly-read literary works and other culture-based texts, apprehension of the timelessness
of those texts and their universal messages, meanings, experiences; the ability to interpret
those texts in various contextual configurations. The core curriculum assumes that a lower
secondary school graduate should have a holistic education. The task of a Polish language
teacher is to organize the educational process in a way that facilitates students’ understanding
of the world and of themselves through the analysis, evaluation and interpretation of
literary heroes’ experiences and reference to student’s direct experiences. Such conception
of education, with well-qualified Polish language teachers, could, in its final effect, form
a lower secondary school graduate who would be a competent participant of culture, reliably
prepared for the third stage of education i.e. upper secondary school. | en |
