Renata Doniec

Dr. Renata Doniec is an Assistant Professor at the Institute of Pedagogy within Jagiellonian University in Krakow. She specializes in Family Pedagogy and Social Pedagogy, with research focusing on historical and contemporary Polish family structures. Her academic responsibilities include coordinating student consultations and teaching courses such as Social Pedagogy, Introduction to Family Pedagogy, and specialized seminars on the educational culture of Polish families during political transitions.

Research interests include:

• Parenting culture evolution in Poland (historical changes and support systems)
• Family dynamics under socialism (ideological pressures vs. daily realities)
• Intergenerational relationships and value transmission
• Educational culture shifts from socialist era to democracy

Her publications predominantly analyze Polish family structures through historical and sociological lenses, with recurring themes of propaganda influence in socialist-era media, religious resistance to communist policies, and generational memory. Recent work critically examines women's magazines as tools of ideological indoctrination.

She advises diploma students and maintains regular consultation hours both in-person at Ingardena 3 and via Teams during academic sessions.
