Wzór osobowy nauczyciela gwarancją sukcesu edukacyjnego ucznia

Abstract

One of the specialities in pedagogy is so-called character pedagogy, also referred to as meeting pedagogy. This type of pedagogy fits the concept of the „teacher’s personal model guaranteeing the educational success of the student”. In order to discuss the topic, which aims to scrutinise the relationship between the teacher’s attitude and the student’s achievements, it is necessary to present two basic issues, each of which consists of four specific parts: issue I. – The teacher as a personal pattern: 1) the concept of a personal pattern, 2) attitude of pro-existence fundamental values in the life and work of the teacher-educator, 3) self-formation through self-education, 4) desirable characteristics of the teacher-educator; and issue II. – Education: 1) the concept of education, 2) values as the basis of education, 3) the tasks of education based on values, 4) educational success. The analysis proves without a doubt that the teacher, who is a personal role model for the students, has great opportunities to positively influence their intellectual, emotional, and spiritual lives. It should also be remembered that the student’s development process is not only a chance for development but also a guarantee of the student’s educational success. It is also important that the student’s development process depends not only on internal factors (needs) and external factors (upbringing), but also on the student’s personality, i.e. spiritual qualities that determine the independent direction of development of a given pupil
