(in Polish) Komunikacja interpersonalna 1500-KOM-S1-24

Interpersonal communication within the family, as an academic discipline, seeks to address issues arising from its scientific nature as well as its practical application. Particular attention should be paid to the clarity of concepts and terms, as well as the axiological readability, because we often speak the same language, use the same signs, and yet fail to understand each other. To this end, the course also includes the study and practice of correct pronunciation, word and sentence stress, phrasing, and intonation. Students are introduced to information regarding the anatomy of the organs involved in the processes of phonation, articulation, and breathing. Basic knowledge in the fields of phonetics, grammar, and acoustics of the Polish language (such as devoicing and internal and interword assimilation) is also covered. During the exercises, the need for warming up the vocal apparatus is acknowledged, along with familiarization with diction exercises and the correction of minor speech defects. This component is aimed at developing the ability to speak clearly and correctly, improving communication skills, fostering imagination, and encouraging creativity among participants. The implementation of these topics contributes to the emotional development of students and helps them overcome communication barriers. It enables independent and creative thinking, stimulates inventiveness, and builds confidence in group cooperation and public presentation. The full implementation of the course also includes the topic of stage fright and methods for eliminating it, as well as the reduction of psychophysical tensions (such as the Alexander technique and Dalcroze eurhythmics exercises). The aforementioned topics in communication (dialogue and building positive personal relationships) have become the source and goal for adopting the following specific issues in the course: The curriculum consists of the following topics:

1.Community as a social and religious reality (dialogue and monologue) – 1 hour
2.The concept of general communication theory and its types (understanding → dialogue → meeting) – 1 hour
