Edukacyjny i komunikacyjny kontekst koncepcji „drzwi kontaktu”

Abstract

The article presents an innovative perspective on learning styles and communication styles, thanks to which it is possible to enhance the effectiveness of educational activities in the educational process and to improve the way of conducting conversations with parents or students. The author refers to scientific research, indicating low validity of recognizing the effectiveness of dividing students according to the so-called learning styles. Instead, she proposes using one of the concepts of Transactional Analysis – contact fields, described for the first time by P. Ware, and additionally included in the concept of T. Kahler’s personality adaptation. The article presents the concept of contact fields and its translation into educational practice: methods of recognizing preferred contact fields for individual students and parents, as well as practical examples of using the concept as a method of individualizing work with students.
