General trends of the development of professional and labour training and education of students with mental deficiency in the second half of the 20th century

Abstract

The article is devoted to the complex analysis of the preconditions, causes, course and consequences of reforming the content, forms and methods of vocational training of mentally retarded students in Ukraine (second half of the 20th century). The interrelations are substantiated between state strategies of socio-economic development of Ukraine and social demands for the training of mentally retarded students for work, the influence of educational paradigms on the functioning of the system of labor training of students. We developed the periodization of reforming the content, forms and methods of vocational and labour training of mentally retarded students in Ukraine in the second half of the 20th century and described the main tendencies, features and contradictions of development of each of the stages. In particular, it has been proved that the content, forms and methods of vocational training of mentally retarded students formed a specially selected and pedagogically perfected system of knowledge, skills and practice reflected in regulations, curriculum, syllabi and textbooks. The educational and methodological support of vocational training is developed taking into account the peculiarities of mental development and potential cognitive abilities of students. We evaluated the contribution of Ukrainian scholars in oligophrenopedagogics to the development and implementation of content, methods, forms of labour training and didactic functions of labour (educational, developmental, informative, remedial), which are interconnected and carried out in dialectical unity<br/><br/>
