Kompetencje zawodowe w kontekście zasad komunikacji dydaktycznej i możliwości oceny pracy nauczycieli

The article is a voice in the discussion about the conditions of pedagogical professionalism in the context of not only understanding professional duties, but also constantly improving the quality of one’s competences and boldly going beyond the patterns in one’s duties. Among many proposals and different types of classifications, the author offers a new kind of perspective – pointing to the essence of teacher competence development as a complex, multistep and varied process, she suggests referring to the style of operation and the use of specific didactic means of communication by a particular teacher. The author of the article points to the coexistence of diverse competences and focuses on the long-existing concept of key competences, with particular emphasis on the complexity of competences related to communication in school situations. The author’s intention is to create a clear and precise competence structure, facilitating the recruitment process and evaluation of teachers’ work. The competence model is treated here as a tool that is widely used in human resources management in educational institutions.
