Khachikyan E.I., Portnova O.A. THE FORMATION OF CIVIC CONSCIOUSNESS IN EDUCATIONAL SPACE OF HIGH SCHOOLIn an era of confrontation between civilizations and the economic struggle of countries, it is important to raise a young generation of people who can make life better, develop themselves, their culture and their homeland, and protect the planet from wars and catastrophes. Russian education at all levels is the main tool in the implementation of this agenda, where the university should become for students a school of civil and moral education. However, the formal nature of higher education, the low involvement of university students in the process of choosing an individual professional trajectory and civic passivity do not allow achieving the goal and solving the problems of modern education, which ultimately affects the economic results of Russia. The purpose of this study is to identify opportunities and propose concrete solutions to resolve the contradictions between the need of society for active citizens and the insufficient manifestation of civic position of university graduates.
We have identified for the study the following pedagogical conditions for the effectiveness of the formation of citizenship of students: a high level of pedagogical and civic culture of teachers; the use of effective educational technologies, the creation of conditions for the motivation of civic behavior of students; phased interiorization of civil values in the course of specially organized value-orientation activities; integration of educational forces of the educational institution. In our opinion, the basic principles that determine the requirements for the implementation of the model of the formation of citizenship of students are the following: the principle of disclosing the civilian values of the profession; the principle of integration of cognitive, labor and social activities; the principle of interdisciplinary connections in the study of general and special disciplines; criterion-evaluative principle.
We have established that education in higher education will meet modern requirements if the following tasks are accomplished: 1) a deep theoretical understanding of the problems of civic education, the development of civic self-consciousness of young people; 2) development and implementation of special programs with the help of which it is possible to create conditions for the civil development and self-realization of a person, self-determination of young people in the system of life values, their self-organization in society; 3) the use of methods for the formation of civic values, the organization of civic activity, the stimulation of civic behavior of students in combination with interactive methods.Key words: civic consciousness, system-forming values, interaction, socially significant goals, personal development, civic position, value orientations.
