MOTHERLAND STUDY AS AN ELEMENT OF EDUCATION

Abstract

The article deals with the issue of the relevance of strengthening the general humanitarian education in educational institutions of different levels, the culturologization of professional education, which to a large extent depends on teachers. It is emphasized that one of the elements of bringing up and training specialists is motherland study, local history as a means of patriotic education being its, which makes it possible to understand the features of the economy development, the culture of the region and the mentality of its population. It is emphasized that the local history element should be an integral part of the programs of academic subjects such as the history of Ukraine, the history of Ukrainian culture and culturology, linguistics, literary studies, political science, economics. The attention is drawn to the fact that in order to acquire the necessary knowledge in the history of the country, the native land, nation culture, considerable efforts are required both on the part of an individual, in the process of formation and throughout life, and on the surrounding social environment in which a person is formed. First and foremost, it depends on the family and on the educational institutions that must fulfill their main function – cultural and historical socialization of a person, involving him / her in the context of a thousand-year history and linking the fate of a young person with the historical prospects of the country. In this connection, general humanitarian training occupies a special place in the process of upbringing and education while training future specialists in various fields. Culturologization of the professional education will contribute into the training of a specialist as a fully educated person who is able to think independently, to orient himself / herself in the flow of information and to give it an expert assessment, to set clear goals and determine the ways of achieving them. It is noticed that motherland study as a system of educational theory and practice, united by educational disciplines and educational work should contribute to the awareness of the youth of material, spiritual and aesthetic wealth of both their native land and the country as a whole, to understanding the diversity and integrity of the people of Ukraine. Alongside with local history material, future teachers and specialists in other fields need to learn the basics of "national psychology" as a complex of ethnopsychological phenomena, need to study special courses on the history of interethnic relations in Ukraine as well as the cultural traditions of the region. It is pointed out that there is a certain experience of local history work in South-Ukrainian National Pedagogical University in the framework of the teaching and auditory process and training practice. The high efficiency of the work in the field of student’s individual research work is underlined. The author points to a certain responsibility of the teacher for the future of his / her pupils. He notes how a teacher of primary school can display his / her local lore knowledge at the lessons of literary reading, natural history, fine arts, music and singing; how the teacher of history, native language and literature should demonstrate his / her erudition and competence in the course of the educational process. The article defines the main prerequisites for the development of homeland (local lore) education.
