    Ze wstępu: This monographic volume presents ten selected studies exploring the multiple interrelationships between language and the communities of speakers who sustain it, focusing on the various roles that language plays for its users, both native and non-native. On the empirical side of things, the studies included in this volume focus on the English language and its socio-cultural and educational contexts. The multifarious relationships between language and the communities of its users are addressed here from different perspectives and points of view. All the different threads fi nd their synthesis in the ways in which language, a carrier of culture and marker of national, social and cultural identity, refl ects the changes taking place in the communities using it as a tool for interpersonal communication, accumulation, storage and dissemination of information, social interactions, transmission of culture, and many other purposes, which are the focus of this volume. The diverse topics explored by the authors speak to the richness and complexity of the social and cultural meanings of language and the importance of questions of language ownership, language attitudes, and linguistic as well as cultural diversity.

    Praca projektowa w dydaktyce języków obcych – alternatywa czy codzienność?
    (Oficyna Wydawnicza AFM, 2016) Kusiak-Pisowacka, Monika
    The aim of the article is to discuss the role of project work in teaching foreign languages in Polish junior secondary schools. Project work is presented as a technique successfully activating and motivating learners, allowing educators to implement the principles of the constructivist approach. The author presents reports on two studies that explored how this way of teaching is applied in Polish junior secondary education. The results of the studies confi rm the eff ectiveness of project work in teaching English as a foreign language and underline the need for creating better school conditions to use this valuable technique. The author of the paper hopes that the text will encourage teachers to treat this technique as a regular class activity, not only as an interesting didactic experiment.
