Aims and scope

The aim of the journal is to integrate pedagogical research in Poland through annual presentation of the achievements of individual research institutions, as well as publishing methodological dissertations. The yearbook tries to be a synthetic informative and critical review of the most important events taking place in the educational reality and an attempt to critically analyze the direction of the research, as well as the postulates regarding their reorientation. Yearbook – understood in this way – is to express the self-knowledge of pedagogy as a scientific discipline. The journal puts, among others questions about the condition of the cultivated pedagogical sub-disciplines and the conditions of functioning of the scientific environments that create them. The Pedagogical Yearbook presents an in-depth picture of the achievements of Polish pedagogical thought, but is also a testimony to the comprehensive organizational, educational and reform activities of the Committee of Pedagogical Sciences of the Polish Academy of Sciences and other scientific and research centers and institutions.
