Aims. The article aims to present the phenomenon of digital dementia in the context of measures aimed at minimising this phenomenon through digital balance measures, which are increasingly available in standard Android overlays. In addition, the article provides an overview of measures available in the form of software, and applications for mobile devices running on Android, which will allow for better monitoring control by parents in terms management of their children’s screen time. Method. The article is a review of selected practical solutions with theoretical justification based on Polish and world literature. Results. This article presents theoretical issues based on a literature review and presents available practical solutions to digital dementia in children. The influences of the family environment, parents’ awareness, and their viewpoints, is indisputable in shaping attitudes leading to unreflective multimedia abuse by children. In many studies, the excessive influence of multimedia is negatively portrayed, despite the many advantages that multimedia gives us. There are many solutions in the form of monitoring applications that make it possible to minimise undesirable activities for the healthy development of children and young people. Conclusions. Parents are the first people to introduce their children to the world of multimedia, showing them, by their behaviour, how to spend their free time, and permitting them to use it as they wish. It is difficult to escape from the digitalization of some areas of human life. Only a fully conscious approach by parents and teachers and skilful presentation of alternative solutions in the form of valuable entertainment can minimize the negative effects on children’s development. However, the available applications in the android system allow parents to monitor time data related to their use.

The subject of the article is evaluation perceived as a mystification of didactic supervision. The author indicates the indirect and direct elements influencing this process. Professor Śliwerski describes the evaluation as: „the socialist process of painting grass in green.” The average cost of the evaluation on a national scale amounts to millions of PLN. So what is the outcome of this study? Does the evaluation it costs a taxpayer so much? And if it is actually so expensive, why is its level of suitability and representation of educational reality so low? The author tries to answer these main questions in the article.

Acronym STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) has become very frequently word among many stakeholders in the school policy. Mathematical and computational thinking are important for STEM Education. There are common thinking skills, but computational thinking focuses more on automation. Mathematical thinking focuses more on proofing. We present n our contribution the theoretical requirements that are needed for students in mathematical and digital competences. Practical examples represent, how it is possible to develop mentioned competences in educational practice.

The study is aimed to describe the using of geometrical educational software oriented to develop geometrical spatial thinking. This software is available on the webpage www.delmat.info. We would like to show his functions, propose concrete thematic areas in Slovak and Polish curriculum in the elementary level useful for this software. Future research in Polish elementary school in the 1-3 grades will be discussed.

Biofeedback as the device becomes increasingly popular tool used in the broad context of edu‑ cation, diagnostics, training, therapeutic. Stress as a factor and stimulus causes numerous disorders in human cognitive processes meters at: memorizing, concentration, correct perception of reality and etc. Article attempts to present a method of working with biofeedback tool based on the musi‑ cal aspect of support for the treatment of stress conditions. Biofeedback as a device can record our physiological states which are a direct exemplifies our emotions which in turn allows for full control of the session and conducted monitoring in the form of saved results in the current course of sensory activity. The author attempts to describe the basic elements having a relationship and impact on the effectiveness of the activities carried out in the field working with biofeedback and music as a sec‑ ondary stimulus in reducing stress conditions.

This article presents selected issues of contemporary theory of education in relation to today outlining the socio‑economic context and in particular to a wide range of entrepreneurship. Particular attention is paid to those elements of the theory of education, which directly refer to the shaping of attitudes and personality traits correlate with the requirements of the modern labor market. The author tries to justify the thesis that reeupdate some parts of the theory of education, which are included in the elements of self, ie. emotional intelligence, financial intelligence, teleology will be much smaller jump between academic knowledge and the expectations derived from the labor market and the contemporary socioeeconomic challenges and contain in a wellunderstood enterprise or care about the present in relation to our future.
