Pisanie to wyzwanie. O tekstach młodzieży w edukacji szkolnej

Writing is a Challenge. Young People’s Texts in School Education

The authors analyze the students’ ability to complete written assignments. They combine the presentation of the results of the empirical studies with practical solutions in terms of improving the writing competence of teenagers. They show how youth deals with important writing skills – deduction, paraphrasing, contemplation (analysis), recontextualization, and summarising – and which characteristics of verbal communication can be found in the students’ texts. They present proven methodical solutions, which can support young people in improving their ability to create texts.

Keywords: writing, literacy, youth’s writing skills, Polish language lessons, teaching methods.
