Rodzina zagrożona wykluczeniem społecznym – przykłady dobrych praktyk w zakresie systemowych form pomocy
(Zakład Historii Edukacji Instytutu Pedagogiki Uniwersytetu Wrocławskiego, Wydział Nauk Humanistycznych i Społecznych Karkonoskiej Państwowej Szkoły Wyższej w Jeleniej Górze, 2012) Gandecka, Kamila; Uniwersytet Wrocławski
A systemic approach is essential in working with the families threatened by social exclusion. This is expressed both in the perception of the family as a whole and in the planning of interdisciplinary strategies of support. This trend is reflected in – among others – the relevant legal acts on social assistance in Poland. Moreover, it also gives the opportunity to create a network of local support in which a strategy of solving social problems – particularly within the family itself – is prepared in cooperation with the local administration. Therefore, the purpose of my article is to present the good practices in providing assistance and support for the families in difficult life situations. The selected programs that have been implemented by Mercury Foundation from Walbrzych since 2006 constitute the research material.

Cechy charakteru czy kompetencje i umiejętności – dylematy rodzica XXI wieku
(Zakład Historii Edukacji Instytutu Pedagogiki Uniwersytetu Wrocławskiego, Wydział Nauk Humanistycznych i Społecznych Karkonoskiej Państwowej Szkoły Wyższej w Jeleniej Górze, 2012) Jezierska-Wiejak, Elżbieta; Uniwersytet Wrocławski
Who do we want to educate? Happy, kind and trustworthy people or perhaps individuals equipped with many competences and skills – this is a dilemma of contemporary parents, teachers, and educators. From the analysis of interviews with parents whose children start their first year in nursery school there emerges a disturbing vision of the characteristics of the contemporary man. Globalisation questions the process of forming such traits as kindness, authenticity, and beauty, which shape morality. Instead of this triad that determines the relations between people as well as between people and the world, some specific competences and skills are preferred in the education of children.

Rodzina – jej wartość i znaczenie z perspektywy życia Dorosłych Dzieci Rozwiedzionych Rodziców
(Karkonoska Państwowa Szkoła Wyższa w Jeleniej Górze, 2012) Piotrowska, Maja; Uniwersytet Wrocławski
We live in a world where our values and beliefs passed from one generation to another are being redefined. The notions of marriage and family also receive different meanings. Persons involved in my research often stressed the great value they associate with this smallest social group. I think that their opinions and beliefs are the consequence of the fact that my interlocutors – as they admitted – did not experience things they were talking about themselves. On the other hand, their opinions about marriage and family are full of uncertainty and fear of impermanence. Such anxieties related to these crucial forms of relationships are typical of adult people. They do not seem to believe that their relationships can last forever. It is especially marriage that they see as impermanent, weak, and unstable, and as something likely to decay. They believe that the memories concerning their parents' divorce are proofs of their theories.

Wychowanie szczęśliwego człowieka podstawowym celem rodziców
(Karkonoska Państwowa Szkoła Wyższa w Jeleniej Górze, 2012) Piecuch, Ewelina; Uniwersytet Wrocławski
There are numerous definitions of education. They are dependent on the concept of who human beings are and what their place in the world is as well as on the conditions of their existence, on what the communities expect of their members, and on what the society expects of an individual. The educational act carried out as part of the process of education can be defined as the actions aimed at altering the behavior of an individual at a particular point in time and in a particular situation. Within the family, bringing up a happy child is the purpose of all educational acts. Contemporary studies on childhood suggest that a happy childhood constitutes a stable foundation allowing for a positive functioning in society. It also increases the chances of adults to maintain the balance in which they were brought up.

Przedstawienia rodziny w komiksie – uwikłania ideologiczne
(Karkonoska Państwowa Szkoła Wyższa w Jeleniej Górze, 2011) Gulanowski, Jacek; Uniwersytet Wrocławski
Comics (despite its history dating back to the end of 19 century) is still a medium undervalued and underestimated. However, in comics one may discover role models important for the readers, who shape their own understanding of family, aims of family life or proper forms of its realization by accepting, negating or reinterpreting those role models. The aim of comics is the creation (within one piece) of a language understood by as many readers as possible. Popularity of comic books, specificity of its forms of expression and relatively low cost of “production” made possible attempts of the use of this for ideological goals since its very beginnings. Those attempts have been made by both groups at power as well as those who tried to resist their pressure. Ideological entanglement is not only observed in the case of comics consciously used for spreading a specific agenda. It also exists in comics, which, according to their authors, “only tell a story”. Those entanglements arise from the worldview of the creators or references to other comics, which were in any way ideologically entangled. One of the features of the comics portrayal of family is that family usually is a part of the background, not the main theme. There are two main kinds of family portrayal in comics: criticism and affirmation. Even though family is not one of the main themes of comics it may be considered the “litmus paper” of comics ideological entanglement. Family is the oldest human institution, being both a and . It can be thus stated, that one's relation to the family is one's relation to the traditional world.
