The world besets the modern teacher with new challenges, and (self-)reflection becomes a necessity as well as a difficult intellectual task. This paper focusses on the issue of a teacher’s reflection from the standpoint of linking educational theory and practice and examining the value of their work. Using numerous foreign and Polish publications on the subject, while also referring to classic authors such as Dewey and Schön, the authors analyse the essence of a teacher’s reflection in order to highlight the significance of reflective thinking as a key competence for teachers and educators. In the deliberations in this paper, reflection is the foundation of a teacher’s reflexivity in modern education, and a priority in preparing individuals for the professio...

At the same time, the paper aims to draw attention to a very effective and unique concept as proposed by Slovak composer and pedagogue Juraj Hatrík. This musical-pedagogical method very effectively solves the identified problems of integrative art education.

The use of musical activities in educational process contributes to positive class climate in lower secondary education, mainly to better relationships between pupils and the other participants of educational process, to their social integration, contentedness, co-operation, communication, and success. The study introduces the research results of how music affects the class climate in 11-12 year old elementary school pupils. A seven-month intervention programme consisting of music activities was integrated in English lessons and background music in art lessons at an experimental class of tested group of pubescents.

Realizowany od lat 80. model nauczyciela-dyrygenta choru wydaje sie anachroniczny na potrzeby animowania środowiska szkolnego i pozaszkolnego do uczestnictwa w kulturze. Z tego wynika koniecznośc budowania modelu nauczyciela muzyki -badawcza zjawisk edukacyjnych wpisującego sie w nurt szybko zmieniającej sie kultury, ktora oczekuje reakcji na te przemiany i wymaga znajomości przez nauczycieli zdolności, preferencji, osobowości i inteligencji dziecka. Zaproponowano wiec nowy model nauczyciela muzyki z wiodącą kompetencją (auto)ewaluacyjną zwaną tez badawczą. Slowa kluczowe: nauczyciel muzyki, kompetencje nauczyciela muzyki, badanie, (auto)ewaluacja, szkola, powszechna edukacja muzyczna. Summary: The author analyses the available academic literature concerning a music teacher's competence in the context of building the evaluation culture of school. Applied since 1980s, the model of a teacher-choir conductor seems to be anachronic for the purposes of animating the school- and the after-school environments to get involved in culture. Owing to this fact, there appears the need of building the model of a music teacher-researcher of educational phenomena and meeting the ever-changing culture expecting the reaction to these transformations and requiring the teacher knowledge of child's ability, preference, personality and intelligence. What is suggested is the new model of a music teacher with the leading (self-)valuation competence, also called research-related. Keywords: a music teacher, a music teacher's competence, examination, (self-)evaluation, school, general music education.
