Koncepcja wychowania przedszkolnego s. Barbary Żulińskiej CR

Abstrakt

Sister B. Żulińska (1882-1962), although she is not very well-known, owing to her broad experiences acquired during her long and varied work as a teacher; and being the author of many treatises, books and articles on education and religion, appears to be an expert on the state of pedagogical knowledge of her time. She reflected independently on the complex problems of education. The present article shows the variety of her thoughts concerned with understanding the essence, aim, ideal, principles, methods and means of Catholic education. In Sister Żulińska’s works these problems as well as ones connected with the knowledge of the child or with the tasksfacing the teacher and educator are so thoroughly discussed that it authorizes us to speak about her own conception of education. The fundamental feature of this conception is the integrality of approach and competence resulting from practical verification of the postulates concerning education, the pupil, and the causative element in the persons of the parents, teachers and educators.
