| dc.description.abstract | Analyzed by the author text of a television debate on the controversial topic of the dramatic events at Jedwabne
(that took place on the 10th July 1941) may be defined as both spoken and visual transmission of an (arranged,
public, formal, prepared) argumentative and polemic discussion — completed with non-verbal (visual) elements
(sequences); the transmission has a form of a (steered by a presenter and moderator) polilogue that is stated by
the TV staff and arranged strictly according to definite rules of audiovisual transmission.
Pupils' debate, that adopts some features of both a scholastic dispute and a trial (e.g. social judgement of King
Stanisław August Poniatowski), should be included in secondary (applied, reproductive) genres of classroom
utterances which are didactically conditioned by the need of developing pupils' rhetoric and discursive skills
(the art of argumentation and reasoning).
A didactic experiment in the form of pupils’ debate during a lesson of history may be considered as a specialized
form of educational discourse interpretation of which requires individual research practices connected with using
among other things a partial, involved (in a context), ostensive, persuasive, metaphorical (with a comparison and
analogy) definition as well as a rhetoric definition and other specialized tools of cognitive description of
colloquial utterances. | en_EN |
