Education for Sustainable Development is one of the most important areas of education both in Poland and all over the world. It is not only related to the development of pro-environmental attitudes towards nature, but also to shaping the competences of the future, needed for satisfying functioning in daily life with other people. Social competence deserves attention in this respect and is worth developing in young people from the earliest age - in kindergarten and school. In the contemporary world, where soft competences become important (including the ability to cooperate, work in a team, build healthy relationships or solve various types of problems), shaping and strengthening these competences are key tasks for contemporary teachers. This article points to some interview research results that show both possibilities of using activating methods for teachers in their everyday work with children and youth (so as to prepare them for later life stages) and limitations of using them from the teachers’ point of view.

The special feature of teaching children with special needs is the need to take into account their needs and abilities. An integral part of the process of teaching students with autism is the provision of communication, the development of social skills and academic (traditional) training. For the development and improvement of the system of IT support for the training of children with autism, the most promising directions are the technologies of an Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR). The model of data flows in such support system allows determining its basic features and principles of operation in the system. To train Social and household orientation for students with autism, several social scenarios were proposed, using the VR and AR technologies.

This paper reports on an ongoing project between members of the computer science and special education departments of Bradley University and Murray State University, detailing the robotic platforms developed and investigated as a potential tool to improve social interactions among individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). Development of a fourth generation robotic agent is described, which uses economically available robotic platforms (Lego NXT) as Socially Assistive Robotics (SAR), combined with direct instruction pedagogy and social scripts to support an alternative educational approach to teaching social behavior. Specifically, in this fourth generation, changes to the physical design of the robots were made to improve the maintainability, reliability, maneuverability, and aesthetics of the robots. The software architecture was designed for modularity, configurability, and reusability of the software.

Warunki instytucjonalnej opieki znacząco ograniczają możliwości rozwoju dzieci i młodzieży w kierunku osiągania dojrzałości w obszarze zachowań odpowiedzialnych społecznie. Deficyty rozwojowe, zaburzenia i problemy emocjonalne stanowią poważną barierę pozytywnego rozwoju podopiecznych placówek opiekuńczo-wychowawczych. Te fakty stanowią wyzwanie dla współczesnej psychologii teoretycznej i psychologów praktyków. W artykule poruszone zostały następujące kwestie: specyfika rozwoju społeczno-moralnego wychowanków instytucjonalnej pieczy zastępczej, konsekwencje pobytu w placówce a rozwój świadomości obywatelskiej, zadania psychologii w obszarze kreowania świadomości społecznej u wychowanków placówek, znaczenie konstruowania profesjonalnej opieki psychologicznej dedykowanej wychowankom placówek – przyszłym obywatelom o szczególnych potrzebach.

Terms of institutional foster care greatly reduce the possibility of the positive development of children and young people towards attaining maturity in the field of socially responsible behavior. Developmental disorders and emotional problems are major barriers of development of positive charges of institutional foster care pupils. These facts pose a challenge to modern theoretical psychology and practical psychologists. The article presents items related with following issues: the specificity of socio-moral development of institutional foster care pupils, the consequences of the placement and the development of citizenship in the area of psychology task of creating awareness in pupils outlets, the importance of constructing psychological assistance methods specially designed for pupils care facilities – future citizens with special needs.

Team working is the basic way of working in the control rooms of hazardous technologies and therefore its quality is a safety-relevant issue. In addition to the technological competence it is also crucial for the crews to have the necessary communicational skills. During simulator training these skills can only be improved if the simulator use is embedded in an appropriate setting. To support this skill acquisition a computer-supported methodology called COSMOS (COmputer Supported Method for Operators’ Self-assessment) has been developed. With its help more effective communication and more complete shared mental models can be fostered. This paper is a report on the psychological fundamentals and the mathematical model of the COSMOS methodology.
