SOME ASPECTS OF VALUE-BASED EDUCATION UNDER THE CONDITIONS OF MULTICULTURALISM IN CANADA

Abstract

The article describes the issue of multiculturalism in the context of educational process and key aspects of value-based education. The multicultural education development in Canada, as one of the leading multicultural countries, is emphasized. The author focuses attention on the valuable experience of implementing multicultural education in foreign countries and underlines that multicultural education and upbringing should be considered together as parts of a single process. Such a combination will contribute to a deep realization and recognition of both national and universal values. It is underlined that such notions as respect, equality, diversity make the basis of multicultural education in Canada. The author notes that the current model of multicultural education implies respect for individual cultures, peaceful coexistence and interpretation of cultures, new knowledge and experience. It is based on the important goal of preserving the uniqueness of traditions and values of people having different cultural backgrounds. The author concludes that the stakeholders of the educational process begin to be aware of the growing need to saturate all spheres with the cultural values, which in its turn, will create conditions for the spiritual formation of the individual. Nowadays, under the conditions of globalization, it is necessary to bring the goals and content of modern education in line with the principles of sociocultural values and society development.
