Wacław’s combative nature was already developed in the Russian school, where every symptom of Polish patriotism as...

Droga profesora Jana Flisa do geografii

Krystyna Banaśkiewicz-Cabaj, Wacław Cabaj (2013)

Annales Universitatis Paedagogicae Cracoviensis Studia Geographica

The school education provided him with excellent knowledge of Polish, which resulted in conciseness of his works, as well as in uncompromising...

Czym jest zmysł geograficzny?

Witold Wilczyński (2011)

Annales Universitatis Paedagogicae Cracoviensis Studia Geographica

Similarity:

„Geographical sense” is one of the original ideas of Wacław Nałkowski. He defined it as oneof the characteristics of human perception and thinking, which manifests itself in such a way, that the whole variety of human experience is transformed in the act of perception to shape the overall, general and comprehensive situations or figures. It is a process based on a spontaneous, unconscious selection of incoming sensory data and its evaluation, interpretation and synthesizing, to create...

Geograficzny bieg dziejów

Piotr L. Wilczyński (2011)

Annales Universitatis Paedagogicae Cracoviensis Studia Geographica

Similarity:

The expression „geographical course of history”, currently seen as old-fashioned or obsolete, seems to be typical in geographical works of Nałkowski. It combines two fields that were very close to him just from the very beginning of his scientific career: geography, to which he has devoted his whole life, and history, which was for him a source of information necessary to explain the diversity of landscapes. The origins of the concept can be found in works of German geographer, educator...

Wacław Nałkowski jako prekursor konstruktywistycznego podejścia do edukacji geograficznej

Teresa Sadoń-Osowiecka (2011)

Annales Universitatis Paedagogicae Cracoviensis Studia Geographica

Similarity:

Although the very term “constructivism” appeared rather recently, its concept was knownin science long before now. According to modern cognitive psychology, the reality is created individually in person’s mind. An individual transforms and interprets the flow of information which he receives in his own way, depending on cultural, social, biological or situational context. Nałkowski’s statements concerning perception and thinking from the beginning of the twentieth century, connected...

Co zostało z idei jedności geografii?

Witold Wilczyński (2011)

Annales Universitatis Paedagogicae Cracoviensis Studia Geographica

Similarity:

Trying to analyze and assess particular scientific, educational and philosophical concepts of Wacław Nałkowski, one should not lose sight of what is his greatest achievement, what was his main concern and care throughout all his scientific career. It is the idea of geography as an autonomous and coherent science, covering the whole of reality that is perceived and experienced in the course of the everyday life. Among the contemporary Polish geographical circles there are very limited...

Dariusz Nowotnik (2012)

Annales Universitatis Paedagogicae Cracoviensis Studia Geographica

Similarity:

Total permanent migration in Poland at the turn of the 21st century was influenced by the political and economic events (economic transformation and the change of the political system in 1989, and accession to the European Union). Among the types of international migration, temporary emigration prevailed. Emigrants were usually aged between 18 and 39,and came mostly from urban areas. Until the year 2000, the prevailing direction in internal migration was the movement from rural to urban...

Nauka i ewolucja w myśli Wacława Nałkowskiego

Mateusz Wierciński (2011)

Annales Universitatis Paedagogicae Cracoviensis Studia Geographica

Similarity:

Wacław Nałkowski is certainly an outstanding figure for Polish geography. In many publications he has also been classified as positivist, anti-metaphysician, evolutionist, anticleric and socialist. Perhaps these designations are not always right, since in his works one can also find the ideas that do not quite match the labels conferred. His broad interests, diligence, criticism in selecting arguments, and the ability to see the essence of complex phenomena of different nature (both...

Gry miejskie jako innowacyjne produkty turystyczne

Witold Warcholik, Konrad Leja (2012)

Annales Universitatis Paedagogicae Cracoviensis Studia Geographica

Similarity:

Urban games and other forms of field games, such as Questing, are innovative ideas for presentation, disclosure and interpretation of natural and cultural heritage. The results of the survey presented in the study show that soon urban games can become an alternative to a traditional guided sightseeing of an urban area. There may be several reasons for such a choice: an interesting way of exploring a city, aspects of play and physical activity, better memorization of information, as well...

Studia geograficzne w Uniwersytecie Jagiellońskim w XIX wieku

Mariola Tracz (2011)

Annales Universitatis Paedagogicae Cracoviensis Studia Geographica

Similarity:

In time of Wacław Nałkowski’s studies in Kraków (1871–1876), the chair of geography at the Jagiellonian University did not exist. Despite this, in addition to mathematics, astronomy and physics, he attended lectures in geography, astronomy and cartography. Geographical learning opportunities within the Faculty of Philosophy were enabled there as early as1765, thanks to the reform of the University made by Hugo Kołłątaj. In late 1811 and 1812among 12 departments in the Faculty of Philosophy...

Idee Wacława Nałkowskiego a współczesna dydaktyka

Elżbieta Szkurłat (2011)

Annales Universitatis Paedagogicae Cracoviensis Studia Geographica

Similarity:

The answer to the question whether teaching of geography nowadays respects the universal ideas of the great geographer, is not clear. A critical look at teaching achievements of Wacław Nałkowski, as well as at the contemporary state of geographical teaching, seems to be difficult due to the individual views and personal experiences. This paper is an attempt to assess the extent to which the important educational concepts of Nałkowski are respected in contemporary educational practice....

Sławomir Dorocki, Małgorzata Zdon-Korzeniowska, Anna Delekta (2012)

Annales Universitatis Paedagogicae Cracoviensis Studia Geographica

Technological and economic transformation of the past few decades resulted in a significant re-evaluation of the factors affecting the location of economic activity. General trend in these changes is the declining importance of the so-called “hard factors”, “cost factors” (such as transport costs, labour costs and the amount of taxes), as opposed to the so-called “soft factors”; special emphasis among these factors is placed on human capital. An important aspect of the human factor in...

Koncepcja geografii malowniczej

Katarzyna Mentel (2011)

Annales Universitatis Paedagogicae Cracoviensis Studia Geographica

Similarity:

„Picturesque geography” is an original expression of Wacław Nałkowski, which probably has no counterpart in the whole history of geographical thought. It clearly shows Nałkowski’s belief that the materials utilized in the process of education should have a beautiful shape. This is also a very convincing expression of his romantic sensibility and the testimony of his great literary talent. Romantic aspects in works of Nałkowski are thought to be very important, since geography is a field...

Henryk Kąkol, Witold Pająk (2009)

Annales Universitatis Paedagogicae Cracoviensis | Studia ad Didacticam Mathematicae Pertinentia

Similarity:

CABRI is a didactic program which has won a very stable position and is probably the most popular one in teaching mathematics. The program is constructed in such a way that it not only accepts and carries out tasks but it emits and stimulates certain behaviors itself, communicating them to the user. Program CABRI, using automatic means, allows undertaking activities corresponding to the so - called Platonian geometric constructions which are usually made with a pair of compasses and...
