Summary: The education as an interactive-communicative process has
always been in an interpersonal relation and was dependent of existing way
of communication. But, unfortunately, sufficient attention has not been
given to that. Luckily, in recent time, in the light of micropedagogical
researches and achievements, the importance of interaction as well as the
role of communication, for educational efficiency, has been more and more
appreciated. Uo to now in the educational science, in its first plan, were
macropedagogical researches of the education in the relation to society -
family - school. Less atantion was paid to micropedagogical problems
connected to the interpersonal relation, to interaction as well as to
communication in education. The communication is the important condition
for effective education. Qualifying parents and teachers for a successful
communication, mutual understanding and tolerance in family and school is
the task of this project. It cannot be realized only with pieces of
information and acquiring of knowledge on the rational plan. To develop
communicative abilities in persons, among other things, it is to be able to
communicate feelings verbally and nonverbally. Above all it is necessary to
develop skills as e.g. empathic listening as well as empathic
understanding. In this project an equal attention is paid to reference and
content as well as verbal and nonverbal aspects of communication, feedback
etc. As the results we expect: the detailed models of qualifying parents
and teachers, the manual of interpersonal communiciation in the family and
school. Although the researches in this project are directed to the family
and school, they have a broader meaning. On a larger view, this project
could help towards the democratization and humanization of personal,
professional and social relations.
Research goals: The goals of this project are: To research problems
of educational communication in the family and school; To discover factors
on which, in a greater measure, the efficiency of interpersonal
communication and mutual understanding as well as tolerance, depends; To
know regularities in cennection of the interpersonal communication in the
family and school, as well as in the efficiency of educational activities.
In this project an equal attention is paid to reference and content aspect
of communication. From the aspect of reference the confidence as a
foundation stone comes to the first plan of every human communication. From
the aspect of content, the condition of an effective communication is a
common resource of signs which gives us equal possibilities for decoding.
In the contex of international undestanding at this aspect we come to the
problem of knowing foreing languages, as a common code for mutual
communication. As the results we expect: To develop models in enabling
parents and teachers for successful educational communication; To work out
recomendations for improving pedagogical practice; To compose the manual
for parents and teachers; To complete doctoral disertation; A spacial
attantion is paid to qualify students for future teachers. In connection
with that it is necessary: To develop models for the intensification of
interpersonal communication in the study; To work out in detail the
programme of improving the communication in lectures, seminars and
exercises at the faculty. On a larger view, this project could help towards
the democratization and humanization of relations in the society.
