The anthropocentric theory of human languages proposed by F. Grucza, along with his theory of knowledge, make it explicit that knowledge is not passed on between people, but that each of us construct our knowledge on our own with the help of others. From the didactic point of view, this means teachers cannot pass their, nor anybody else's, knowledge on any student. In consequence, a redefinition...
The article focuses on empirical research of the cognitive aspect of the translation process that provides new research possibilities arising from the rapid technological advancement. After presenting a historical overview and discussing the latest technological approaches to this kind of research, the author concentrates on the possibilities and prospects of the eye-tracking analysis in translation...
The aim of the article is to discuss the possibilities of supporting the learner's reflection on positive, negative or ambivalent feelings and emotions, which are part of the language learning process. That kind of reflection, which is an activity that also supports the development of language learner's autonomy, helps the learner to understand and to manage their learning process. To know how to...
The consequence of acknowledging that language abilities are an inherent property of man is that the actual speaker/ listener has come to the foreground of linguistic deliberations and thereby the emphasis in these reflections and in the research has been shifted to what is happening in the brain as far as language processes are concerned. The last few decades, due to increasingly modern technological...
Professional audio describers often face a dilemma what to include in their descriptions, how to order described elements and what to omit due to time constraints. It is thus useful to examine how particular film scenes are perceived by sighted viewers and to what extent audio description can influence that perception. This paper is a work-in-progress report on the first stage of an eye-tracking...
The article presents some remarks on the phenomena which accompany trilingualism of students with language competence in English at the B2 level and in French at the A1 level, learning French through the communicative method approach during the first year of studies. From the point of view of linguistic observation, at the very beginning of the learning process, it is possible to observe: code switching,...
For many years, researchers have concentrated on two basic questions. The first concerns the nature of language representation – are bilinguals' two languages represented in distinct or overlapping areas of the brain. The second, in the neuropsychology of bilingualism, concerns the neural correlates of language switching, the areas that are active when bilinguals switch from one language to the...
Eye-tracking reading research has long history which dates back to the second half of the 19th century. In those early times, the simplicity of the equipment used did not allow to carry out research on a large scale but the main facts concerning eye movements were discovered. The situation changed in the late 1970s when computers equipped with eye-tracking systems were introduced. Due to this development...
