IDENTITY OF THE SCHOOL AND ITS RELATIONS TOWARDS OUT OF SCHOOL REALITY
Identity of the school as an educational institution comes from complex set of social, cultural processes which have long history. One of the factors influencing this identity is approach of school to outside world that is experienced by students in their everyday life. School limits students’ learning to the demanded extent and quite often separates their cognition from activities required by everyday life. Because of this phenomenon school has been criticized from various positions. The article presents some chosen positions including John Dewey’s standpoint and furthermore considers problem of school identity in two perspectives: evolutionary and cultural.
Key words: school`s identity; educational institution; evolutionary and cultural perspectives.
